Click to expand... I don't care much about speed. I want stability. I will be riding on pavement, in the bike lane, on gravel, and sometimes on a little grass.

Mine's a touch more aggressive, but I do a lot of trails. The interlocking centerband makes a world of difference on pavement!

No2 tire is more of a all purpose tire and gives you the best tread for different surfaces in my opinion.
