After a long push home I'm after a pair of 700 X 32 tyres for the Sapphire, tow path bike. Using Hutchinson Cross Towns currently, which roll well and fine for gentle off road pootling, but puncture, so I'm looking for recommendations with puncture protection.

I have Durano Plus 700x32 on my (pretty much) do everything bike. No punctures yet in years or mixed riding.

Not that great off road in the wet, bur can't fault them in every other situation I've thrown them at. From fast road rides to rock gardens.

Not sure they do the 32s any more though 🙁

Marathons. Awful to ride but indestructible.

Continental Sport Contact, super fast tyres with good puncture protection!

Cont Sport Contacts. Roll better than Marathons. Way more grip than the tread would suggest, surprisingly puncture proof on thorn strewn tow paths and glass strewn cycle path commutes.

^ thirded. Can be found at excellent prices, often from the German websites. Soo much nicer than the Marathons.
