I bought this tire to install on a electric semi recumbent, under the idea that it would help with puncture proofing.
I have an 11mm tack, which is designed to emulate a really long goathead, and i test tires by stabbing them with it until the pin exits out the other side.
3mm of the tack was protruding out the outer edge of the tire. 1.5mm of the tack protruded out the center of the tread.
Very close to the result i got with the beefy Pirelli ML75. ( 2mm side, 1mm center )
A Hutchinson Spherus had 3mm of the pin protruding through the center, for comparison.
The tread compound is rather hard compared to the Pirelli ML75, so the extra .5mm of tack protrusion might not mean much once your weight is on the tire. It may be just as flat resistant as a ML75.
Treatland recommended this as a tire with good rolling resistance. I'm inclined to believe that claim, based on the hardness of the tire.

Put this on my '96 Tomos A35 Sprint rear tire and it fit like a charm. I had more trouble getting the old tire off than I did putting the new one on! There is a nice video explaining how to change a Tomos tire on you tube. Other than that the tire looks great and rides awesome! I would recommend this tire!
