Also interested to hearing opinions as I have a 700x35 Greenguard pair so far unused.
I have just completed a 7880km tour over the past three months on my heavily loaded touring bike. 1500km was on dirt roads, mainly the Dempster highway. The tires I used were 700x38mm Schwalbe Almotion. They roll great. The front did not flat and still looks almost like new. The rear I swapped with the new spare at 6200km as it was showing some wear and had punctured twice at around 6000km. I wanted to keep it as a usable spare, but I think it would have gone for another 1000km or so without issue. The Almotion are folding bead, which is nice and they weigh ~650g in the 700x38 size. They don't roll silently, there is a slight road noise, but they roll easily and do not flat. Amazing tires really.
