They put a lot of pro teams in kits and the quality of their shorts to me is very good.They normally last me up to 2 ears if taken care of properly. Their more expensive shorts or bibs of course are like any other brand. Top notch.And they tend to have a sale with great deals weekly. Chris H.

In general you get what you pay for and Continentals are no exception. It seems that if you are riding enough miles to simply "wear out" bicycle tires rather than have to replace them due to some kind of damage from the road or an accident you are truly riding some miles. What a great problem to have! Does any one have stronger thoughts on shorts?

The last Descente$ shorts I bought only lasted a year. Back to izumi or will try cannondale this time.

The heavier weight material last longer no matter which brand you use but the lighter weight material shorts breath better during warmer months. I haven't had issues with any brand. Tires on the other hand have drastically different life spans. I think the most durable longest lasting is the Continental Grand Prix 4000's. I've tried a few other brands but the only other one I've had long life success with is the Michelin Pro 3's. tim ----- Original Message ----- From:Ken Langley To:Cows Sent:Wednesday, May 19, 2010 9:11 PM Subject:RE: [COWs] Wednesday BLog So, Tim Since your going through tires and probably shorts on a regular basis. You're an excellent resource. What brands are you having the best luck wth these days?

That should set me up for 372 this weekend, maybe...hopefully....dang there goes another set of tires! tim ----- Original Message ----- From:Kinnie Pruden To:[email protected] Sent:Wednesday, May 19, 2010 5:39 PM Subject:Re: [COWs] Wednesday Tim said an ez 25 I believe. Can't imagine why he only wants to do 25. He's only got a 600k this weekend. Hmmmm. Could we meet at Tim's office around 10:30? Would that work for everyone? kp --- On Wed, 5/19/10, Kim Benson < [email protected]> wrote: From: Kim Benson < [email protected]> Subject: Re: [COWs] Wednesday To: " [email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, May 19, 2010, 6:50 AM Hey Kinnie-I have already made plans to ride with my newbie friend today.
