Continental Ultra Sport III Tire (Black) (700c) (23mm)
Fair, as it comes to tires for commuting. Heavier than race tires, not as supple, which is to be expected, but these are probably the hardest tires I ever had to fit on. I put them on a pair of FIR PIN(?) rims, and it could be the tire/rim combo, but I don't remember the same issue with the older tires. I do not think there are a set of human hands that can flip these onto the rim, or even tire levers (I used the forbidden flat head screwdriver). I am dreading the day I get a flat, and I'm stranded because I don't have the use of a thick steel screwdriver. Maybe they'll stretch out and won't be so bad later, but until then these 1 star.
