Customer review of this product:
Very Cush Ride
by Bruce C. of Los Angeles, CA on July 11, 2021
Product:
Soma Shikoro Tubeless K Tire, 700 x 48 - Black/Brown
Ownership: a few months
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high
Pros
Puts a lot of air under you with low rolling resistance and good flat protection. I ride a lot of city streets in LA with glass and goat heads to contend with and these provide great protection. Put them on a new to me Rivendell Atlantis with loads of clearance. Have ridden mostly 33mm jack brown blues previous to this and these feel similar but with so much more comfort. Sidewalls are slightly darker but still look great. Was also looking at Rene Herse (holy grail of low resistance, fast, high volume slicks) but availability has been problematic and they are not cheap. These are a great price, are made in Japan by Panaracer and Modern Bike is fast to order & delivers quick. Very happy with these. Def recommend.
Cons
Coating takes a little while to come off. You may find them "bouncy" until you dial in the proper pressure for you - both front and rear. With all that air they will likely feel different from what you are used to.
Other Thoughts
Like the sidewalls. The white writing "pops" alot more than other gummy sidewalls on the darker brown.
