"These tires took me on my first century and I loved how they felt on the road. The felt faster and I felt more in control of my bike on the turns. Going from a basic training tire to these is a fairly inexpensive way to take a big leap in quality and performance."sesh

(5)

Ease of installation

If you can fix a flat on a road bike, you can change a tire.

(5)

Quality of Construction

Seemed good to me. Looks tough, but also looks fast. 120 TPI and weighs 220g.

(5)

Comfort

I definitely noticed a jump in the quality of the ride in changing from the Zaffiro Pros to the Rubino Pros.

(0)

Durability

Only used them for one century ride so far, so I'm not sure of the durability at this point.

(5)

Value

For $40 bucks a tire, they are much, much nicer than the price paid.

(5)

Appearance

They come in black or with two colored stripes. I went with the red to match my bike.

(5)

Performance

They roll incredibly well. They have a slick center which made the smooth asphalt feel like riding on air. The grip is so much better than the Zaffiro Pros I was on. I feel like I'm actually glued to the road when cornering.

Strengths

Low rolling resistance. Grip when cornering.

Weakness

None that I've noticed so far, but I've only been a 100 miles.
