I’ve never heard of bikecloset. But the price seems good.
I have ordered from them many times. No issues and great prices.

Some info is really old. I'm not impressed.

Any opinion on Enve tires?
LBS is really recommending (pushing?) them.

Same here. Multiple orders and all good experiences.

They're made by Tufo, I'd pass on them.

My priorities: 1. Flat protection, 2. Rolling resistance. A couple 1000 miles and so far no flats on either tire.
How about the P Zero Race 4S versions for TLR? Nobody mentions the 4S (4 Season) model

700x32

I recently purchased a Reserve 40/44 road wheel set and put a pair of Vittoria Corsa Pro Control tubeless 700x32 tires on them. For my weight and the rim dimensions I'm running 55psi rear and 50psi front, so far so good, easy to mount with a track pump and once I put in sealant they have held air very well. The tires give a very comfortable ride, I'd highly recommend them. I also like the Reserve Fillmore stems very much.

They're indeed made by Tufo. The first generation wasn't anything special.

The just-released in 2024 SES Raceday 29 may be different. BRR tested this, and it's a bit faster than the GP 5000 S TR.

Re the complaint about BRR having old data - yes, they haven't removed older tire models from the list, but they are testing current tires. I'm not sure what the complaint is. I think they don't test every single model of tire out there, but they have limited resources.

What's the problem with Tufo? I've always liked Tufo gravel and CX tires. That new Enve tire tests impressively well.

I ended up ordering the Pirelli P Zero TLR’s in size 32 from 365cycles.

PSA: 10% off site wide right now using MEM10 code. I got the pair for $145 shipped.
