Hi, where did you get your rubino tlr? A street shop or online? I searched on google and they are sold at ~40 euro online, more expensive than pro one ~33 euro.Stitchking wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:50 amIm giving a pair of 28c rubino tlr a hoon for this winter. So far they seem nice. Noticeably slower but i haven't really pushed them round corners and have done no racing recently. Don't hold air as well as the gp5ks i had on previously, i need to pump them up before every ride.
Unlike the corsas i tried earlier this year i was able to bead up with a track pump relatively easily.
They ended up being 50g lighter for a pair of 28c training tyres than the 25c gp5k.

I am looking for clincher tyre, did I choose right comparison (GP 5000, S wroks turbo and vittori Corsa G+ 2.0): https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.co ... -graphene2
From that looks GP5000 the fastest and most durable option, or ?
I manage a shop, so my price is not really relevant. Probably 35-40 euro is what we are selling them for. I found the schwalbe tyres to be super fast wearing in the rear so not the biggest fan. These are more to test out over our winter. See what kind of milage i get, how bad they cut up, etc.etc.alanyu wrote:Hi, where did you get your rubino tlr? A street shop or online?

Waiting for your test. Schwalbe's mileage is not a problem to me. My 28c Pro One's mileage is relative long, more than 6000km. I find that schwable's mileage is largely depand on load and I'm only 55kg, lucky or unlucky enough.Stitchking wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 2:02 amI manage a shop, so my price is not really relevant.

I had settled on Vittora Corsa G 28mm original version because that's all that was available when I was preparing the bike. However in the last few days I have had a bit of dread about the fate of the rear tire. I'll be covering 2000 km and 50,000 meters in 10 days, and there is no way the rear would last the whole trip, even without cuts or punctures. On level ground sure, but with only up or down and much of it steep, 1000 km would be about the limit for that tire under my 170 pounds. So I grabbed 30mm Corsa Control. Not happy about the extra weight or rolling resistance, but the thicker tread gives me a better chance of avoiding punctures and having to swap to a new rear halfway through. I'll keep the regular Corsa on the front. This will be a serious torture test for this tire. I'll report back with results.

Are you as light as me? A 55kg skinny man, total weight less than 70kg ( + bike + water & energy + minitools + bag).
Would not that be per wheel?alanyu wrote:Are you as light as me? A 55kg skinny man, total weight less than 70kg ( + bike + water & energy + minitools + bag).
The limit of Pro one 25c/28c is only 70kg/75kg on their website, which I think a lot of people don't take care of.

TYTT I don't know whether it's for pair or per. I hope it's for per wheel.Valy wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 7:04 pmWould not that be per wheel?alanyu wrote:Are you as light as me? A 55kg skinny man, total weight less than 70kg ( + bike + water & energy + minitools + bag).

Oh yeah that's the same tire, and it has been wiped several times. I went through a set of brake pads in three days. The guys on disc went through pads in two days. Descending so steep, wet, rough, and technical you could never let the bike go. Horrendous roads, always wet, often raining and mud, sand, grime, pureed plant debris, and indeed alloy "schmutz" - well put Nefarious.Nefarious86 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 8:28 pmAlloy brake schmutzwillmac wrote:Is that really the same tire?
