I value puncture resistance over performance and the Gatorskin does a solid job in both categories. Not too heavy, yet does a good job of avoiding punctures. Not bullet proof, but it takes a significant object on the road to cause a flat.

I have been using these tires for a few years now for training and century rides. I have very few flats now. In fact, I wore out the rear tire without getting a flat and I do quite a bit of riding where radial tire wires and goat heads can be a problem. I always keep one or two of these tires on hand to replace those that I have worn out. Last at least 2000 to 2500 miles for me,

These tires are commuter workhorses. I get less flats with them, you can install them with maybe one tire lever - no pliers or injured hands! They last and last. Great value in the long run.

Durable. Easy to install and remove. I'm a recreational road rider with about 4,000 miles a year. Install new tires every year.

You know what youre getting with the Gatorskin. Flats are a thing of the past and they wear like iron but they are not plush and they are not light. Even the 700x32mm ones Ive been riding 65 psi are a bit jarring at times. I knew that when I bought them. And will buy them again when this set wears out.

Durable and easy to mount. What else is there. Would be nice to lose the Halloween colors.

On the terrible roads I ride on these tires are super great. They really help minimize flats from road debris.

I love these tires! They are on 3 sets of wheels for riding when it's raining, slick or grimy roads or even hard pack gravel. Durable and you can't really tell you are on a slightly thicker tire. The few flats I've had were large objects like over size staples or nails.

I have used these on my Roubaix for a couple of years, and will stick with them. Good handling and excellent wear. The wear indicators are a nice feature. They are a bit tough to mount the first time.

Very durable tire. Have used this brand for years.

Was getting frequent punctures on Ultrasports due to small stones and glass. After two weeks, none on Gatorskins, and they feel good, although not a flexible in the wall as my favourite summer tyre - Velosports, which have a much better feel.

I use Gatorskins to get more miles and less flats.
I get about double the miles i would get from the 4000s or the 5000 s.

These tires wear well and are needed in SW FL where the road shoulder is home to glass and truck tread wire filaments. Very durable and decent handling - Gatorskins are a good match in gator country.
