Yeah, I've run them. They are Sorex tyres on Speedmind rims. The rims are excellent, don't break, crack or anything, and the tyres are regular sorex, so very good. The full set is a bit heavier than a Schumacher revlite set, but then they do last until the tyres wear out, unlike my experience with revlite rims.

The speedminds seem a bit baggier in my opinion, great for low grip or cold days, just dont seem to last as long

i know this is slightly off topic, but are there any good alternatives to pitshimizu d20 wet tyres out there, we run them indoors on dirty tarmac and they give reasonable grip and last for ages, but they are not easy to get hold of at times. is there an alternative

Normal sorex 28r pre glued are fine for everything
