Sure, microplastics in your brain or balls might be bad, but you know what's definitely bad? Macroceramics in my bike tires (hexbear.net)

Best tires for the city are schwable marathons or continental contact plus. Slicks are nice for well paved roads with no trash, so no where.

highly dependable on location. if you live in 70s new york those marathosn are for you, otherwise every other tyre made heaps and bounds as per puncture protection without feeling like you're trying to drag a sand over rock

Yeah those continentals are great. The schwalbes are basically tanks and are great for tank purposes.
