On the other side of the coin, I haven't had good luck with Bontrager tires... a customer who has a new bike (about 500 miles on it) actually has worn out the Bontrager Race LIte already! He's not a big man probably about 170-175 lbs, but the tire was destroyed. Unfortunately, I have had way too many customers with this same problem.

Many happy miles!
My friend has a Madone that came with Bontrager Race Lite tires. She HATED them. Hated how they cornered in particular. She still used them until they were worn out then switched to the ProRace2.
