Best tires for the city, they say: slicks that puncture if you look at them wrong.
The city: where every street is littered with glass.
I've been lucky but I think it helps that my tires are a little knobbly.
Best tires for the city are schwable marathons or continental contact plus. Slicks are nice for well paved roads with no trash, so no where.
Yeah those continentals are great. The schwalbes are basically tanks and are great for tank purposes.
highly dependable on location. if you live in 70s new york those marathosn are for you, otherwise every other tyre made heaps and bounds as per puncture protection without feeling like you're trying to drag a sand over rock
