Default Re: road bike tires

I just bought a set of the Specialized Armadillo All Condition Elite's. My bike came with Specialized Mondo's which I did not like. I wanted a tire that had a good feel and that I could ride without worrying about punctures. I just went on my first ride with these new tires today and I am very impressed with these. I took corners at speed and descended with out worries. I believe that these are very similar to the Roubaix's that your considering.
