5.0 out of 5 stars City Durable and long life, January 27, 2010

I've had these tires on my old road bike (27x 1/25) for over an year and half. They've have been on my bike for over 1000 miles now. I commute into San Francisco and have to deal with many obstacles, worst of which, is the endless patches of shards of glass. I've only had 4 punctures and the last 3 have been after the 1k mark.

These are very sturdy tires, which are relatively light weight and with great traction. I've had days where I've taken out nasty chunks of glass, but didn't lose air pressure, they have save me many times from being late to work.

I'm trying out the Gatorskins now, but the tires are still in riding condition, but with to many glass scars to ride in the city. For those that ride fixies or like to skid to a stop, there is a purple layer that becomes visible to let you know when it's time to switch them out (but I still don't see them on mine).

Yes, they are not well known, but I also was recommended these by the guys at the bike shop. I'm glad they did.

Bottom line: Amazing puncture protection with long life, yet affordable. Plus they make old 27'' wheels look more modern (sad that they only come in black for that size). If you need good tires but don't want to shell out the $40+ for each tire then get these, you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect training/ all-around tire, July 20, 2010

This review is from: Serfas Seca Wire Bead Tire with FPS (Sports)

I've been using these for a couple of years now, and I couldn't be happier with them. The hard center and soft shoulders make for a tire that roll efficiently and corners like it's on rails, and the flat protection is excellent: at least as good as "commuter" tires at twice the price. And the 700x23 holds 130 lbs PSI! You just don't see that at this price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent city tires at a great price., January 14, 2010

I ride a road bike set up for commuting in New York City. A perpetual problem is dealing with punctures from all the road debris. After my last flat, the local bike shop recommended Serfas Seca tires. While not as well-known as Marathons, Gatorskins, etc., these were supposedly tough tires at a great price, loved by those in-the-know.

I've had this tire on the rear for about 1000 miles without a flat. While there are a few visible cuts, it's holding up much better than other tires I've had. It's also fairly lightweight and feels fast. I'm very happy with the quality and will get another one for the front.

I have the 700x25, but it really measures closer to a 700x23.
