This was my first season on Serfas tires and I loved every mile. I exclusively rolled the Seca RS tire this year for all of my training and racing. At only 215 grams, the Serfas tires coupled with our Bontrager wheels were light enough to handle any climbing that we encountered and more importantly for us, could handle the most technical of crit courses. Their new “bead to bead” Flat Protection System(FPS) did its job too as I didn’t have a single flat this season!
The tires’ shining moment came at the NRC Tour de Grove in St. Louis. A monstrous thunderstorm rolled in with about 5 laps to go in the race. There was a pro team there, who’s presenting sponsor is NOT Serfas, that was trying to control the front of the race. However, as soon as it started raining the entire team slid out on a particularly treacherous corner. Freund, Sherer and I were set up right behind them and Ryan and I cruised through the corner to take control. The final turn was 140 degrees and we were able to confidently lead Mike out for a field sprint win and our first NRC podium. I know we train a lot but I credit a lot of that performance to our Serfas tires.
Thanks to Serfas for all of their support this season. I can proudly recommend Serfas products to other riders out there, and it’s icing on the cake that their price points don’t break the bank!
