Hutchinson Sector 28s sketchy in the wet?
I’ve been using these for a few weeks now, and today was the first specially wet day. Back tyre slipped out coming down a steep hill that I descend every day. I was just able to hold it, but finished up pretty much in the opposite gutter. Had a couple of minor slips on the way home, including climbing the same hill.
Has anyone else found this? If they are as bad as this, then they may have to go, so any other suggestions for 4 seasons tubeless?
Thanks

I had a pair of Sector 28s and they absolutely would not wear out, the buggers, had to sell a bike to get ride of them. But I did put a question mark beside their wet grip after I got dumped on the road on a LH bend three years ago. It was October, the road was damp, who knows whether another tyre would have kept me upright.
This site has given very positive reviews to the Hutch Fusion 5.
