Someone sold me one new Continental ride cruiser 28x2.2 for $12, and I mounted it on the rear. I liked it so much I ordered another one for the front, and replaced my Big Ben's. These are a better tire in my opinion, bigger, better handling, and they really soak up the shock from bumps, even the nasty ones. The big Ben's are a bit stiff to ride on after a while. I can't tell any difference in rolling resistance, in fact, the Ride Cruisers almost feel a touch faster, they cruise very nice at 25 mph. The Continental has a higher tpi-theads per square inch" than the Shwalbes do, which is supposed aid in a smoother ride from what I understand.
