I'm going to start using my mountain bike for commuting part of my journey to work. Will be doing about 12 miles each way...some of it on poor roads so dont want yo use my road bike.
Any recommendations for a road type tyre but something that'll be puncture resistent but rolls well!
Cheers

I personally use specialized fat boys, wouldn't say they are puncture resistant though.

The Conti equivalent to the Schwalbe is good too.

In reply to Batcloud: Done about 10,000 kms on mine, and only one blowout after pumping them too much. No normal punctures in 5 years on them.
