Currently my "Trigger's Broom" of a touring bike (only thing original on my '08 Dawes Horizon is the frame and fork) is shod with a pair of Marathon Greenguard. Pretty basic tyres, but not particularly comfortable either, probably due to the 3mm rubber "greenguard" layer beneath the tread.
Main use of the bike this year will be the massive commute of 1.3 miles each way to work and back, and some general day rides, possible some overnight B&B tours.
Seeing as this bike hasn't had much spent on it recently, I thought it deserves a treat.
So what's recommended in the way of reasonably light weight "touring" tyres, which aren't too heavy duty, and still reasonably "plush", but not to fragile either ~ 700x32 to 700x38 or thereabouts.
I had tried Panaracer Paselas in the past. Nice tyres, but these failed with perished sidewalls.
What I've considered so far:
Marathon Supreme,
Vittoria Voyager Hyper (although I've read these may be a bit slippy in the wet?)
Panaracer RibMo
Continental Contact Speed.
So any suggestions?
Thanks!
