Review: Damn good tyre! - So good, i can ride through glass without much of a worry.(Only small shards though. You've still gotta be careful).
Review: Fast reliable tyres - Was recommended gatorskins by a friend of mine for my road bike to replace the stock tyres that came with it (Vittoria zaffiros I think). The gatorskins were relatively easy to fit and I noticed a real difference on my first ride out. They just felt smooth, slicker, faster but without any loss of grip. A fast reliable tyre with excellent puncture resistant qualities, I'd recommend these to anyone. Well worth the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which one is it, a 700c or 28 inch?**
A: 700c

**Q: I have used previously continental ultra sport ii 23-622 (700x23c). can i replace with these tyre?this tyre is 28 inch, would this be a problem?**
A: Good  on dry surface! Just be careful on wet surface! In general I like it

**Q: Are these wet and dry road tyres or just dry?**
A: For wet no debries roads these should work fine. There are Continental Contact Plus for more robustness too.

**Q: Is 23 the minimum width it will fit, or will it fit an 18?**
A: They are wired rimmed and to be honest, I struggle getting them on to my 23c wheels.  Maybe check the manufacturer website for size ranges. Unless it specifically states 18, I wouldn't risk it.
