Oh, mostly because they're gratuitously knobby for a pavement tire. I don't have many miles on them so I can't comment on their suppleness - perhaps they're sublimely fast-rolling. I find it hard to imagine they'd be better than a GK slick. Or RH, if budget permits. Or Schwalbe G-One. Really plenty of tires I'd choose above Cazaderos, partially because they're kind of rare and I could get a number of other tires more cheaply.
