Same as any other tyre i would imagine...i.e if you ride over a thorn which is at the wrong angle its gonna nail you[;)]

nailed by a thorn. like that!

it's all about pressures really. try 40 front and rear first. then tweak +/- a couple of psi to find the perfect pressure for your type of riding.

i cant see they will be any more prone than anything else. i'll tell you when mine turn up cos ive got some nobby nic and ralph's turning up, as well as some maxxlite 100g tubes (if anything, this will be my undoing, not the tyres)!

No worse than the Nevegals that preceeded them....

Though, I`m sure you will pick them up like I did and think how can something so light offer any protection!

The Racing Ralph is very lightly treaded so I'm sure it is inevitably more vulnerable than a heavier treaded tyre.

Wont be the punctures on the Schwalbes that get you, it will be the sidewall tears (far too thin)

I ride these and have done so for a while and as yet not had a problem[:D]

I expect i'll be plagued by them now though[V]
