Continental speedkings at 80psi and no punctures, despite descending pretty fast. But I am a skinny little 10 stone weakling :-)

tufo tubeless tubulars with about 40psi. no pinch flats (no tubes!), excellent cushioning and grip and fast enough for me on the road (with a single 38T ring and 13-26 cassette i was never going to be lighting up the tarmac)

i'm a fan of panaracer cinder x, used them in the last 3 peaks that i entered and they were superb (shame i can't say same about the d"amn virtually brand new sram 990 chain that failed me on the way to pen-y-ghent).

decent wear as well 2 years on.

i also used landcruisers time before and had no issues but feel they are way more draggy and certainly less grip. they are very cheap and very tough though.

hopefully if all goes well it will be fresh panaracers for me this year.
