been riding these for at least 5 years though a compound change and i still really like them
relatively flat free wear well and handle perfectly
good price point too
I upgraded my tires on my new Trek Emonda from the stock tires that come with the build (25mm) to the Vitoria Rubino Pro G (28mm) and could not be happier. The stock tires were very light but I was getting flats on every ride. I've been running the Rubino Pro G for about 3 months and no flats. The other huge plus about these tires is the handling and they are superb. On long fast descents the tires handle perfect and being 28mm have great traction when it matters but low rolling resistance on the flats. The tires are a great compliment to the disc brakes I have on the Emonda.
The tires so far seem well made. No issues and they handle very well
I purchased these tires because a friend has used them for years and swears by them. He rides almost every day and puts in A LOT of miles each week. I've only had them on my road bike for 3 months, but they've been great so far. The roads have been really crappy this past year and I've had to replace tires within a few months due to cuts and punctures from glass and other nasty stuff in the shoulders of the road. I check my tires before each ride and these tires have been great so far. I'm optimistic enough about them that I already bought a back-up set for when the time comes for me to replace the current set.
I have been using the Vittoria Rubino tires for several years now after having tried several others. I am getting around 5,000 or so kms, before I replace them. They have a great ride and flats are non-existent. The tires are also easy to install.
With a Vittoria bias from using the Rubino Pro III (23cm) for some time now. At first, there was a bit of balloon tire shock, the ride was even more comfortable, like buttah, the handling is better. After a few weeks of group rides and hood rides, over several hundred miles, I'm enjoying the ride and the grip of the 25's. Am more confident at speed, the group averages 27 kph to 31 kph over 80km. Haven't done any serious gap descents yet so am looking forward to that. I usually get at least a season worth of rides on the previous tires before replacing and can't see any reason so far that my expectations should change.
Perfect for my Raleigh bike, smother ride, no roll resistance.
Have used Rubino Pro III 28c in the past and loved them. Very few, if any cuts in the tire and no punctures over thousands of miles on 3 road and 2 adventure bikes. We ride pavement, gravel, and dirt. The PRO G tire does not feel quite as supple after approx. 500 miles but it is a minor difference. Handling, speed, and control feel the same.
these are much more supple than the last generation of Rubino Pro, they feel comparable to the Conti GP4000. Have held up perfectly in a race at Brooklyn's Floyd Bennet Field, notorious for flats, and a 75 mile ride upstate. Only remark is that the 25s seem a bit narrow, more like a 23 on other tires.
I purchased a set of 700x25's a couple of month's ago, and so far these tires have performed as advertised ! The bike lanes where I ride are horrible to say the least! All of the road debris gets swept into the bike lanes and left there. I haven't had any tire cuts or punctures so far, and the tires seem to be holding up very well! I plan on purchasing another pair in the near future, in 28's though. The tires corner well, and roll smooth! I would highly recommend purchasing a set of these tires, and giving them a spin!
Handle nicely and absorbs the shocks while still transmitting the road surface information so critical to good handling.
