Well I use Specialized Armadillos, but same story. That Kevlar layer makes them stiff, and an all around MFer to get on. Upside is that I have never gotten a flat while running them. Not once. Not bad considering I ride in a glass/debris strewn urban environment.

Funny this thread came up, because I have a front rim and a Kevlar tire waiting for it in the garage. I've been putting it off all week!

Regular tires aren't too bad. Patience grasshopper.
