Now I was willing to accept this if you wanted something special. Mud tyres or spikes or combination road / gravel tyres or even doing 45° angle corner leans at 80kph down Alpe d’Huez or whatever but surely, SURELY, for just going A to B in an paved enviroment it wouldn’t matter?
Yeah no turns out the premium shit does feel great and rolls better. I can never return.
I don’t think they make Schwalbe Marathons (sorry forgot to include that) or Gatorskins in tubeless but they’re just real heavy duty with pneumatic tubes, nigh unkillable.
That said, if your problem is blowouts on a roadbike due to a pothole I’m guessing that’s a snakebite which the above mentioned would provide some protection on because they’re heavy and wire-reinforced as hell but doesn’t really solve your problem.
If pothole-on-a-roadbike is your concern I would suggest looking into tubeless. Airless tyres have fucking garbo comfort and rolling resistance according to every review I’ve ever read while tubeless doesn’t and if you hit a pothole so hard your tubeless tyre pops out of the bead enough to be broken your main concern’d probably be not dying rather than the tyre
