Seeking 27" Touring/Randonneur tires

[cloudhead]

Hello,

I'm looking for some good tires for my 27"x17mm Matrix Titan T rims from long enough ago that tires are hard to find. All the local shops just have 1-1/8" wide road/racing tires. A quick internet search shows most of the tires I like to be 700c.

Anyone have any suggestions for a good puncture-proof tire that can handle the elements and potholes and some dirt roads?

Thanks,

Court

Thanks.

I contacted the good folks at Harris and they recommended these:

Schwalbe Marathon 27x1-1/4 630 - harriscyclery.net


Looks like a good tire to get lost with.

I have never had a flat with 20,000 miles on Continental Gatorskin tires

i might give those Gatorskins a shot on my Allez. I cant even tell when I have a flat on that bike until I take a turn, and then it's too late.
