I bought the Conti because my LBS was getting so much custom from me for
repairing punctures! I also had a wheel respoked there a few weeks ago and
they do my servicing. They aren't likely however to get much in the way of
business for hardware purchases from me in the future - that Conti and a
tube only cost me A$58 plus $10 for delivery.
