These are great tires for the price - My 18 year old son rides well over 100 miles per week and these tires hold up very well!

I have traditionally used Bontrager Hardcases for training, but thought I'd give these a try. I have a few hundred miles on them and so far, so good. For a training tire, impressed with their performance and how well they roll. Got them on sale so was very satisfied with the value.

I put these on my wife's fixie commuter. She got 2 flats in a week, so I switched them out and went with Gatorskins.

I switched to these from Conti Gatorskins, which had served me well for 4000 miles and needed to go to the Big Highway in the Sky. The Rubinos are lighter and seem a little faster than the Gatorskins. I only have 200 miles on them thus far, but they seem solidly constructed. Great price from this site for the tires and they arrived on time.

Purchased a set so I had fresh rubber for a 130 mile benefit ride which they road nicely right out of the box, and have been running them as a daily trainer since. I would be happy to give 5 stars at this point as I am very pleased with the performance but I've only put 400 miles or so on them. Having never run a tire with tread I didn't know what to expect -I've been running Michelin Pro's and like them quite a lot-. They are perhaps not as smooth running as the Pro's but for the price they ride very well and feel durable, tough, ridding not the best pavement daily in north-west Montana. And they are not slowing me down one bit, gaining on my spring training with the Pro's and even shattering a personal best hill climb buy 3 min. Smooth and stable on the down, coasting in the 40's. Very easy to mount, putting on four tires in half the time struggling with 2 Pro's I don't feel nearly as mechanically useless as I used to. Over all exceptionally priced for what I'm getting from them so far, supper fast delivery.

PROS - Value, Durability, Puncture Resistance, Low Rolling Resistance

CONS - Weight (somewhat) However I use this tire for off season training so the weight is not really a factor

I've been training for the Triple Bypass on these tires for two months and they have been great. Very durable and not overly heavy. Plenty fast for training.

Put these tires on just prior to a 470 mile bicycle tour. Flatted once due to large road staple. Tread seems to hold up very well. I will purchase again.

This tire is priced right and the color celeste matches my Bianchi frame. I think the road gripping traction is a big plus.

They were on sale and seem to be a good tire for the money. I put them on a 29'er hybrid that I've been using on the road since hunting season ended. It's a heavy bike at 30-31's but these tires handle well, taking downhill turns at speed easily. Though I haven't ridden much in the rain since mounting them, they seem to handle water fine. A couple of times, I've been caught out in a drizzle or light rain and I've also ridden wet roads and paths with slick pavement. Initially, nervous about their grip, I'm pleased with how they handle and am confident on them. We have some terrible roads here and while you can dodge most potholes, I catch some here and there. No flats or cuts after three hundred miles and very little wear. I weigh 185 and keep the tire pressure between 100 psi and 120 psi. They were hard as hell to put on and, as they're wire beads, that probably won't change. Other than that, decent tire for the money. Look for them on sale.

Great tire for the price. Tough, but not super heavy. I've hit many pot holes and accidentally ran over shards of glass with these tires and I've yet to have a single flat with them. A little over 200 miles on them and they still look brand new.

I purchased these for my commutting needs and they've been nothing but awesome! Since in winter the bike lanes are more like mine fieldsdump sites than travel lanes I was looking for something extremely durrable without sacrificing too much rolling resistance and these fit the bill. I've rolled through gravel, glass, downed brances, ice shards and not one flat. The selection of colors is nice too, highly recomended!

I am a heavier rider 250lbs I like the 145psi hard casing. It handles well in the corners roles fast. And I like the color options. I am using these to re-place my continental Attack Force combo that the rear wheel life was less than 700 miles at a huge cost on sale. The Rubino is a little tough to remove and install but well worth the hassle.
