On the positive side these are supple, well-made tires that mounted just exactly perfectly to ENVE SES 4.5 wheels. Running tpu tubes and not tubeless the tires were only 47mm wide! They should measure at least 49 new with 25mm inner rims and then gradually relax to 50 over time. The ride was not as supple as the 48's I was running from another brand whose tires DO measure 50mm wide when run with 25mm inner rims.
I took these off and sold them barely used after one ride and am not pleased with the tires being significantly under sized. I really like the black sidewalls that I can't get with my previous tires, but looks aren't much compared to performance.
Hopefully, future runs of the tires will be different.
Got about 150 miles on a new pair and they seem to roll fast. fwiw, I have 25mm ID rims and these '44's end up being 42mm wide.
