Hopefully these Eroicas (presuming I get them mounted) won't be quite that delicate. To my imprecise hand, they feel about the same thickness as my worn Jack Brown Greens, and those have only punctured once, and was actually a spoke poke so didn't count. If they just don't work out there's a ready market for them, so I won't lose too much money on the educational process.
