I’ve been using these, with tubes, for a couple years now on roads of varying conditions. The dual-compound setup offers, to me, an excellent ride quality and a very grippy feel through the corners that instantly boosts your confidence. They are the closest I’ve ever felt to the supple, "floating" sensation of traditional sew-ups in a modern clincher tire. I’m running them with you tubes.
Product Details
Specialized S-Works Turbo T2/T5 Road Tyre
Maximum performance in a convenient tube-type option, the S-Works Turbo T2/T5 Road Tyre by Specialized is quick, grippy and durable whilst still being very light.
By using a combination of fast-rolling GRIPTON T2 along the centre and T5 for traction on the shoulders, the tyre is able to offer a compelling combination of speed and handling. A supple yet tough BlackBelt layer made from hybrid Kevlar within the carcass prevents punctures without spoiling ride feel or adding extra weight. Overall, Specialized claim that this tyre is 4 watts faster than the previous version.

About Specialized
Innovate or die.
Founded in California in 1974, Specialized began with a simple promise: serious riders deserve serious gear. Half a century later, the brand still funds its own wind tunnel, builds its own carbon, and tests every bike with the world's best so that you ride your own best.
The first production mountain bike. The first cycling-specific shoes. FACT carbon, the Win Tunnel, S-Works. Specialized has a habit of building the things the rest of cycling ends up copying.
