one more thing to add for city riding. The tread is thick enough to resist minor glass shards from puncturing immediately, but they tend to embed themselves in the tires and eventually puncture the tube if left unattended. Picking over the tires and dislodging glass and other debris is something that I started doing once or twice a week. Seems to reduce punctures.
