Yeah another winter tyre thread I'm afraid! My beloved Krylions have had their day 3 punctures in a week so time to go - and due to the fact you still can't get them anywhere I'm thinking of changing brand to Fortezza Tricomps. Just wondering how they compare really? I used to ride on conti GP3000's but they're a bit pricey.

    tricomps have less durability but IME about the same sort of puncture resistance while they last (i.e. very good).

    tricomps are nicer to rider on and feel faster. about the same for grip.

    to be honest you don't have a lot of choice...
    getting hold of krylion carbons is like finding a needle in a haystack.... unless you have a secret stash!

    I think the Fortezzas are great. I have had only two punctures in approx. 2000 miles and they roll really well. Will definitely be buying more.
