I am using this tire on a set of Cyclops rollers so I can keep my expensive tires for outdoor use. I like the quality and wear this tire provides. It mounted with out issue for me on my Boyd Altamont wheel and because I do not have a dedicated wheel for this tire yet it gets changed a good amount. I am pretty brand loyal and Vittoria is my tire choice but it is a good tire for its intended use so I have no reason to try any thing else.

Happy with this so far. Previously used regular tire and my tubes would flat after short time. This is much cooler temp. Also quieter than normal tire.

Low cost, low wear tire for use on an indoor trainer.

Super stiff bead makes the tire difficult to mount (actually broke a tire iron getting it on), but once mounted up it seems to show virtually no wear and tear after a month or so of use on an indoor trainer. Hard to beat cost wise.

This tire was made to be used on a trainer. It's thicker than a road tire and quieter. Harder to mount too than a regular tire. Not too difficult though. My trainer needed this.

I recently purchased a trainer and after one short ride using Continental Gatorskins, I could already see the tire wear. After 250 miles on the Vittoria Zaffiro, there is ZERO wear. And quieter then the Continental. If you can dedicate a bike/wheel for this tire on your trainer, it's really worth it.

Have now uses for 900km and still barely weathered the rubber. This is so affordable and functional. Perfect for the PNW winter indoor trainer.

After destroying a fairly new tire doing an FTP test (on a Tacx trainer), I decided Id better get one of these. It was a b%& to mount on my spare Shimano rim, even with levers. Make sure you keep it well over 100 psi, or youll overheat a tube and pop it. Its fine once on, but a hassle to mount. Wish Id just bought a wahoo.....

This is my first winter using a trainer. The Vittoria training tire is as advertised. Quiet and durable. Im guessing it will last a few winters of 750 miles or so.

Ive used both the Vitoria and the Continental home trainer tires. I think the Vitoria is acceptable, but the Continental version is a better home trainer tire. The Continental home trainer is more expensive, but its worth it because its muck quieter.

I haven't been using this tire for long, but I tried running my regular street.road tire on my indoor trainer before installing this one to see the difference. It's quieter, smoother, and for all the reasons the product description describes, I have confidence that this is the right equipment for use on my trainer and it'll last much longer than using my outdoor tires. Well worth the cost. (Though like others say, it may be easier to have a back-up wheel to keep it on)

I've had the Continental home trainer tire and this one, and I can't tell a significant difference in them. This one does seem to be a little softerhotter after a long ride (I always have a fan blowing on the flywheel and wheel) than the other brand's option, but a few thousand miles in, I don't see any deterioration in the tread. Very easy to install on my rear rim.

If you're still on the fence about whether to use old road tires or a trainer-specific tire, I promise you'll be glad that you made the jump to this economical option.

Easy to install on the trainer bike. It was louder that i was expecting at first but it took a few minutes and it got more quiet. Now I barely hear it while I'm riding. We'll see how it holds up as it appears to be just a bit thinner in the mid-line than a regular outdoor tire, but it's hard to really tell. I'd recommend it.

Definitely Needed if you ride indoors often..

I've used these tires for years and feel they are a necessity for use with indoor trainers. These tires hold up well and don't degrade as fast as other tires do when exposed to trainer heat. Another advantage is that they are quieter than other types of tires. They do have a tendency to shed little black pieces of rubber as they wear. So, make sure you have something underneath your tiretrainer and behind you so it doesn't get all over the place. Seems to work well if your back tire can be close to a wall or something. Tip Since you can't ride this tire outdoors, just put this tire on a spare wheel then when you ride outside just switch to your regular wheel/tire. Saves a lot of hassle if you switch between riding indoors and out quite often.

I received the Vittoria Zaffiro tire and mounted on and Easton Wheel after I upgraded my road bike to Mavic wheels. This is the perfect set up for indoor trainer. Runs smoother and quieter that a normal road tire. Highly recommend this for indoor trainer.
