Kinetic Trainer Tire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My experience is similar to the other reviewers. I fought and fought trying to mount this tire. Two tire levers were broken in the process. Then, after the bleeding subsided on my hands, I decided to put my bike in the trainer and ride. Surprise! The tube was pinched and sprung a leak. It took me another 45 minutes to unmount the tire. After changing the tube, I tried to re mount the tire. My hands started bleeding again. I broke my remaining tire lever. At this point, I swore this tire was created by sinister people who take solace in watching people suffer. I'm also writing a letter to Kenda in an attempt to get my money back.

Continental Ultra Sport Hometrainer Tire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I spend more time on my CompuTrainer than I care to admit and so far the Continental Hometrainer Tire is the best option that I've found. The tire is quieter and has a better road feel than regular road tires. The tire also leave less tire debris scattered across the room and lasts much, much longer than regular road tires and other trainer tires, such as the Vittoria Home Trainer.
Caveat:
It might be a fluke, but my last Continental Hometrainer was the first time that I've used the black version and it was nearly impossible to mount on the rim. I've probably gone through 6 sets of the yellow version and, although difficult to mount, they were not nearly as hard to mount as the last black version. I'll still give it 5 stars because I won't have to worry about mounting a new tire until sometime next year.

Vittoria Open Corsa Evo CX Tire - Clincher Review

(More customer reviews)Sometimes it takes "Rocket Science" to manufacture a tire. This 320 TPI Vittoria tire is that kind..!! Indeed it proves the superiority of Italian Technology, no doubt about it. On your first ride you will experience the low rolling resistance and increase of speed. I had a 290 TPI of this same Open Corsa EVO CX but this 320 tpi is lot faster.

Vittoria Zaffiro 700x25c Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These tires came stock on my bike. I added Mr Tuffy liners to them and have never had a flat. I have over 2000 miles on these tires from one summer's worth of riding. I am going to replace the tires only because they have worn enough to throw off my bike computer by a few percentage points on speed and distance. The tires still have rubber on them, though. For the price, I don't think you can beat this tire.

Vittoria Open Corsa Evo CX Road Bike Tire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am not your average sized road biker and I have a hard time keeping up to the skinny--minnies in our bike group, so I was very happy to find these tires. I think they actually helped me increase my speed on average by 1-2 MPH. I read reviews that told me these tires are rated to 130 Lbs inflation, with racers inflating to 140 lbs, so I decided to try them out. So far, they seem to be rugged enough to take the 'tar and chip' roads in this area and I have been pleased, although I have had one flat--due to pinching the innertube I suspect, but am not sure. I would recommend these tires to anybody, especially we larger bikers that really like to go.

Vittoria pulled out all the stops when developing the Open Corsa Evo CX Road Bike Tire. Handmade with a special latex inner tube, the Evo has superior elasticity and puncture resistance, further enhanced by a PRB 2.0 puncture-resistant belt under the tread. Vittoria uses their Si02 3D compound with added silica to reduce rolling resistance and provide better grip when leaning into wet hairpin corners. If a supple rides what you desire, then the 290 tpi casing--thats right, 290 threads per inch-- will fullfill your wildest dreams of floating over road imperfections.Product Features

Vittoria Open Pave Evo CG Tire - Clincher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This a great tire, and even better on sale. It's high TPI design gives it a great ride. It helps cut road road buzz. Grip is exceptional in most conditions. (It's not so good on semi frozen road, but what is?)
This tire may not be as durable as a Specialized Armadillo or Continental GatorSkin, but it rides better. It's still very tough for as good a ride it provides. Its slightly higher volume 24mm vs 23mm helps give it a better ride, grip, and rolling resistance as you can run a little lower pressure.
Keep in mind the black on black is 290 tpi. The green on black is 320 tpi. I can't tell the difference.
These tires were a little harder to get on my Williams System30 wheels, but well worth a few extra minutes.

Vittoria Open Corsa EVO CX Clincher Tire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Yes, these tires are grippy and you can get moving pretty quickly when compared to other tires. I chose these tires for the ride quality, which I feel is among the best I have ever had for a particular tire. However, I will say that these are also the fastest flatting and easiest to cut tires I have ever encountered. I am usually only able to get a little over 750 miles out of these tires before they're completely trashed. I've logged thousands of miles on other tires, without deep cuts or seemingly unexplainable flats. The same soft grippy rubber that allows these tires to handle so well does not resist road debris very well. I've had some nasty punctures and flats while riding hard, on what I thought were well maintained and clear roads. While it does not discourage me from purchasing these tires again (I currently have three pairs of this particular tire), I will caution those looking for a high mileage performance tire. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend these tires to someone who does a good amount of commuting or recreational riding. If you are into racing or competitive riding, these tires are an excellent choice, but don't expect them to last much longer than a season.

Open Corsa CX clincher universally acclaimed for its reliability in road racing, in its new EVO version, is destined to even greater success . The new technology includes a new KevlarSiO2 3D compound with added silica, for reduced rolling resistance and better grip in the wet and the new composite Corespun K 290 TPI casing that uses a blend of Polycotton (cotton and polyester) and Kevlarthreads .The very high thread density of 290 TPI (equivalent to 1 .100 threads per decimetre!) ensures maximum comfort even at high inflation pressures, while the added Kevlarmeans even better cut resistance .Like the Corsa Evo tubular, the PRB puncture resistant belting placed under the tread makes the Open Corsa EVO CX an exceptional clincher .
