I rode in to work today (20 miles one way) on my newly mounted Specialized Armadillo Nimbus tires (26x1.5"). I installed them this weekend after getting a flat on my way in last week...which SUCKED! I also installed the "spinskins" tire liners as well. I didn't get a flat on my way in...Hahaha. GOOD! I think that they are going to be a little slower tire than the 1.25" Forté Fast City ST/K tires that I replaced. It felt a little slower today, even though I did hit 36 mph at one point. It did feel like I was riding into a pretty healthy headwind, so I will reserve judgement after I make the ride home tonight. Even without the wind, it seems like I hit higher speeds on my ride home....will keep you all posted. These tires were NOT cheap ($35 each), but if they keep me from getting flats, it'll be worth it!
