Not all Schwalbes are the same. Echoing Patrick, the Kojak is a lively, fast-feeling tire (at least, in the 32-369 size I use). Schwalbe also sells super-heavy duty touring tires that could probably go around the world without wearing out and that likely would stop all small arms projectiles short of the Browning .50 cal.; I would not expect those tires to feel lively or fast. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
