My Conti Sport Contacts 1.6 have had it - rear wore through to tube today (bang!).

They've been great except hopeless grip in wet.

Any recommendations for fast, puncture resistant and grippy ?

Thanks

Halo Twin Rails for me. Commuted everyday and had one puncture in 6 months. Surprisingly grippy when required.

I like my maxxis overdrives - I'd get another set.

Schwalbe City Jet, the affordable alternative to Schwalbe Marathon Plus (which I would buy if I wasn't so thrifty). They dont seem to wear down. I go 1.95 front, 1.5 rear

edit: just notice the grippy requirement. These are ok but terrible on wet ironworks
