I have been using Rubino Pro for years. They last me about 3,500 to 4,000 miles, unless I was lucky enough to hit a large nail just right. I used to get the orange and black and now get the red and black.
Great traction and low rolling resistance. Seems very durable. Haven't flatted yet... even when I rode over broken glass. Whew.
After two rides a split in the side wall( very small 2mm)which allow the tube to create a bubble which burst the tube, always at the wrong time on a long fast down hill.
These tires have been fast and smooth, great for paved roads and for the moderate gravel roads in my area. Also, these tires went on my rims surprisingly easily. Didn't even need to use levers. At $36 each I wouldn't hesitate to buy these again.
Good value for the money. Rolls well and holds together.
I ride my road bike almost everyday - not a racer anymore. No cobblestones just paved streets. I bought these tires after reading the reviews on line. I have had them for a week and had a flat everyday (7 flats). The good news is I am very proficient at changing flats while out on the road. I think I am down to 10 minutes. I know some people have had really good luck with theses tires but I am not one of them.
Good all-around training tire. Durable and reasonably light. My only quibble is that it doesnt measure a true 25mm on a standard rim.
Tire rolls with little resistance. It is fast and durable. I use tire liners which nearly eliminated flats.
Rubino Pro is a quality tire on par with Conti's.
Like the description says this is a great all around tire. Light, fast and very durable.
Tires handle great in all conditions. They're relatively light weight and are pretty puncture resistant. Make sure to mount them correctly (point them in the right rotation orientation).
I don't know if the graphene makes any difference, but these tires have held up as well as any I've tried. The price for a Kevlar bead tire is reasonable. I got about 3,000 miles from my last rear tire before I started getting punctures. Replaced tire before the thread showed, but I suspect the tread was getting thin.
Nice combo of puncture protection and rolling resistance for a training tire. Nice price too.
I use these tires to commute on my road bike during months without ice. They hold up well on urban streets and give the best traction for the cost I have found.
650 miles wth zero flats through lots of road debris, gravel, glass, etc. Fully confident in them. Long-distance recreational enthusiast. These work extremely well on my Bianchi Infinito CV Disc. They came stock on my bike (700x25) and I see no reason to change. Very pleased with the ride, flat-prevention and durability.
I use these tires on my road bike, and I ride on non-paved trails as well. I try to remember to rotate my tires about every thousand miles, seems to balance out the wear for me. I keep these for at least 3,000 miles before I change them out for new ones (same model, btw). I am very happy with the performance of these, I will be putting on my fourth set sometime this month. I like them a lot, have had no issues with excessive flats or wear, so I will continue to use thise things that work for me.
I use it for my every day rides. It feels durable as well as comfortable.
I have been riding these Vittoria tires for many weeks now on my daily commute. This autumn in Seattle has been a really wet one and these tires are fantastic in the wet and inspire confidence while cornering and descending in wet weather. They are also flat resistant - I ride through an industrial section every day and inevitably go through broken up glass, sharp gravel, and thin wire bits that I guess escape from truck tires. These tires have been bullet proof so far. In fact, I am slightly superstitious about the Vittoria brand - in general I just don't get many flats with Vittoria tires (still using tubes - I know - old fashioned) and have enjoyed many miles on their tires on various bikes. These are also pretty small 28mm tires so if you have space for a little more cushion, I recommend these tires.
I Use Vittoria tires after many years racing and training on Michelin. I was tired of changing flats. I found the Rubino pro G a great tool a lot stiffer ride but the carbon seams to take up some of that. I will trade the stiffness for flats. Have used them three winters now and will keep using them. I even took them to France and put some big climbs and descents on them in the Alps. I am 200 lb 6'2' and like a tire that will stay with me. My tolerance for risk is diminishing but my desire to still ride exciting routs is not.

Was sad the Paves are not made anymore. These are just as good, maybe better. Roll smoothly, hug the road, great in turns.
