These are great tires for the price, don't let the unfamiliar name scare you off. They come folded, so they are easy to store if you are holding them back for a future need, but they quickly unfold and install easily on a standard 700c rim. I can only speak for the 35c version, 23c is significantly smaller, I don't know how they'd compare, but I am very happy with my 35cs. They did not require an inordinate amount of prying to get them on, and they beaded up right on the first try and did not require a lot of twisting and rolling to get them to seat properly. I would not hesitate to install these on any bike for which the size is appropriate.
