Two entirely different tires (in size, tread, and ply) will not perform the same and are not equally-reliable. Even though they're all made out of rubber.... I personally think it would be very difficult to walk out of patenteaux's or escargos tracks if the tension was right. The radiused "guide" if you will, does not flex in relation to the riding surface which only helps as compared to some other tracks. It is fun to see pics of tracks falling off though...
