Review: I worked in the bike industry for over 15 years. I've ridden just about every kind of tire from most of the major manufacturers. This tire is similar to the Specialized Armadillo, the Continental GatorSkin, the Schwalbe Marathon, Bontrager Plus (Hard Case), etc.. All of these are good tires. There is always a compromise between weight, speed, grip, and puncture resistance. This tire is of moderate weight. Some comparably priced puncture resistant tires often rotate irregularly, as if there was a bump on the tire, but the Maxxis Re-Fuse rolls well and smoothly. The grip on them is average to fairly good. The puncture resistance is excellent. I commute every day and traffic has forced me more than once to ride straight through fresh patches of broken glass and recent car crash debris. I would have excused the ReFuse tire for giving in to a puncture, but so far they have proven to be quite puncture proof. I've been riding this tire on my commuter bike for 4 years and I can't recall getting a flat while using it. The only times I think I've had a flat was when I had to run a backup, non-ReFuse tire while waiting for the next batch of Maxxis tires. So, when will you need to replace one of these tires? I ride hard daily, between 20-30 miles on average. Somewhere between 6-12 months these tires start to "chunk out". That means small patches of the rubber, maybe a centimeter or so, will start to peel away from the inner puncture resistant casing. But what's amazing is that they will still ride okay even though there are now bald patches on the tire. Some slipping potential, for sure, especially in wet conditions, but they still work... and won't puncture! But at least I'm are given a warning: Buy some new tires, already!

Review: To be fair, a sidewall puncture is going to take most tires to the dump. But, the other Re-Fuse I've had on my bike for well over a year hasn't had any issues; I ride the same 8-10 mile commute every day, and this new one I bought on Amazon, it lasted one week. Maybe it was dumb luck, but I find that hard to believe. I ended up paying for a new tire at a local shop which cost me about four times what this one cost (that's the burden of not having a bike facility at a work place). Moral of the story is I am going to continue to purchase another brand that has a kevlar layer in the sidewall so this doesn't happen again, and buy from a local shop and pay through the nose, so when it does break, I can go in and complain in person, instead of leaving a passive aggressive review.
