I'm 18 years old. I have a Specialized Allez Elite 2007. The factory tires (Specialized Mondo Comp, 700x23C, aramid bead, 60TPI) are just about completely worn out and I am looking for suggustions for a new pair.
A little background knowledge: I'm located in Denver, CO. Roads in the spring can still have a fair amount of gravel. I would also like a tire that does ok in wet conditions, not necessarily a downpour, but a little wet. I ride in the 2,500 to 3,500 miles a year range. I don't race encept for a couple centuries and maybe a time trial or two a year.
If anyone could recommend a tire. It would be greatly appreciated. My price range is no more than about $30-40. I am currently looking at Hutchinson, Vredestein, Michelin, but I am not limiting myself to those.
Thanks
Carl
