I ride the irrigation canals in Yuma, AZ, during the winter. The surface varies from hard pack sand to soft sand with occasional crushed rock – gravel stretches. Over a five year period the Serfa Vermins have held up very well. I can usually get 1500-2000 miles on them and the puncture resistance (lots of thorn of every size and variety in the sand) has been very good. BTW, I ride the fronts on both front and rear because that’s all the bike shops down here stock….doesn’t seem to be a problem.

I have about a thousand miles on them by now, and they’ve been very rugged so far. I’ve had one flat so far, but I can’t say any tire would have stopped this particular thorn (http://www.thedirtbum.com/wp-content/uploads/Thorn-Flat.jpg).

My impression is that the tires “feel” kind of slow, compared to the Continental Double Fighter II’s. Perhaps it’s just because they’re new, and the Conti’s were well-worn. Not sure.

I like their comfort level — they feel plenty cush, and I’ve seen no problems with slippage. They’re certainly good enough to keep using, and I will.

Not sure about whether I’ll buy them again when it’s time. I may think about going a little skinnier and slicker…

And how would you say you like them after their first month? All things going well? I consider choosing Vermin as my next set of tires. It is definitely time because I have a sidewall split on the front and I can see a navy-bean-sized bulge of tube protruding when at pressure.
