i've had a good look around for kevlar folding tyres and with most of them being between 25 - 30 quid i would say that the

KHE mac premiums are still the lightest out there by far (most others weigh 600g) although next time i'm going for the steel bead version as it's almost the same weight(470g) but half the price at 16.99  ;)

when i stacked on vert the kevlar bead in my tyre streched = tyre fooked

i noticed that most kevlar tyres are not lighter than steel bead versions, just easier to carry in your bag as a spare

okay, well, weight isn't a massive consideration, but don't really wanna spend £30 a tyre so maybe I'll give the KHE street steel bead tyres a go.

Swapped my Primo walls for khe kevlar, weight saving of over a pound, bike rolls faster and felt easier to spin. Not had any problems although you do have to keep them pumped up hard. Also noticed that they dont come with a very deep tread, reckon 1 good snake skid and would be bald. Got some FAF, but they are fitted to Tuffs felt alright on the macmillan ride.
