I hope you enjoy the tires! I’ve got three bikes with RH (or Compass) tires, some for years. I have two sets in the shed for another bike, and to swap out knobbies for slicks. I enjoy the ride of those tires, and I haven’t had bad flatting issues. My last set of flats were pinch flats, including a rim dent, so I don’t blame the tires. I blame rainstorms washing the dirt off the trails, exposing many many large sharp rocks. And I will take that over drought any season.
I have periodic gout flare ups that destroy me for walking, but I can still ride without pain. I hope your issues aren’t that!
