Vittoria Rubino Pro G2.0 Road Tire

I've put about 1500 miles on a set of these, running them tubeless on Krysium Pro wheels. They seem to roll well, are pretty comfortable, and reasonably flat resistant. I've had one small puncture that sealed with the sealant, so no long term issues. Didn't notice it on the ride, but rather from more air loss than have come to expect from these tires. They do hold pressure quite well. At least on Krysium rims, a real bear to get on, so I am keeping my finger's crossed that I don't have any catastrophic failures.

Here in Southwest Florida we deal with a a lot of debris on the roads. At the same time, we don't want to give up the ability to make good time. This Vittoria Rubino Pro G2.0 Road Tire works almost as well as my previous Vittoria Pro Corsa but is much more durable. I highly recommend it.

I bought a new Bianchi bike with these tires on it. 700c 28

I have ridden about 300 miles on it and they're not showing any wear yet. Seem to have really low rolling resistance. Very good tires. No flats yet.

I'm nerdy emough to color coordinate my tires with my bike. The only place I shop is biketiresdirect.com, and niw my bike club peers all do the same.

Best prices, best selection and crazy-quick delivery. My blue Vittoria tires look great with my blue anodized NO22 road bike.

Like many roadies, I waver between Conti GP and anything else. I usually start thinking �anything than Continental� whenever I have to mount one. I�ve had good success with the Victoria Rubino line in the past but always drifted back to the stalwart Conti GP.

I ordered a 32 and 28 Rubino Pro G2.0 and have installed them on 50mm CF wheels on my Canyon Ultimate. The first ride was fine, but nothing revelatory. But then I did some research on pressure and realized I was about 10-15 psi too high. So after reducing pressure down into the 60s, rolled out for a 30 mile mid-day ride.

All I can say is � wow. The ride was secure, fast (enough for November), plush, and several washboard sections of pavement (where I typically need to hang on for dear life) were floated over. In fact, I lost track of where I was for a while since that stretch is a typical distance milestone.

The tires look great, installed easily enough, and should function well as off-season training tires.

Highly recommended!

I have been riding Victoria tires for years and I find them a great ride especially for the type of roads in Western PA.

I have used these tires in various iterations over the years, and NEVER had a flat! I ride on fairly flat roads that are blacktop and chip and seal. I usually get 6,000 miles out of them before they have to be retired. They are easy to mount on my Boyd Altamont rims that have a 19.86mm internal width for reference. The 26c width balloons out to 28mm, and the 28c width measures 31mm on my rims. They are not the fastest tires, but I do not race or compete either. Get these tires! Very dependable and bulletproof!

i thought i knew how to install a tire, but these were unreasonably difficult. they appear durable, I am using them as replacements on an 80's road bike, I have about 200 miles on them and they seem pretty rugged. The thing I fear is having a flat on the road.

These tires are fast, durable and smooth. I like the gum wall sides, it makes my bright yellow pop out on my bike. I will order these tires again for sure.

I am a seasoned rider and these are the first time I�ve purchased these tires. I instantly liked the ride quality and feel of the tires, particularly when cornering. I am playing with tire pressure still but find the ride to be comfortable and at the same time sensitive. I really like them! I�m 152 lbs and primarily ride for fun, fitness and charity events.

Victoria is my go to tire choice and Ribino pro is the one I use for training because it�s durable and I don�t have to worry about it�

Been using these tires (and the Corsas) for years as they mount relatively easily on my Shamaal wheels, but three of the last five tires have had issues with the sidewall right above the bead. A small tear/hole appears and then the inner tube blows out. The latest had less than 200 miles on it. Don�t know what�s going on here.

25mm road tires, 130 pressure. As a heftier rider I need high pressure tires to resist snake bite punctures. Like the red sidewalls to coordinate with the bike. No problems.

Many of my cycling buddies go with thorn resistant tires (Gator skins) and they're welcome to it. I like these tires for my road bike, they just handle better. road feel, ride quality, ease of install. And I get good mileage out of them. I rarely have flats. Of course, the 'handling and road feel' could just be some kind of front-loaded assumption on my part-- I want to believe it is true, therefore it is true. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking with it. What do you think? I'll review my choices for touring tires on another product review.

With over 5K miles on these 30�s, I finally had a flat. The rear tire was wearing so I replaced it, original front tire still going strong.

The Rubino Pro G2.0 are nice tires for the price. They wear well, look good, go on easy, and their sizing is consistent (a 25 is 26.5mm on a 18mm ID rim).

They roll very well, but they're not as fast as a GP5000. The Rubinos are a little more plush and provide a nice smooth ride. If you're looking for the absolute fastest tire, this isn't it. I use them on my road bike that doesn't race. They're fine for fast cruising or a group ride. I use GP5000s on the race bike.

I have been a fan of the Rubino Pro for years. Fantastic tire in nearly every condition that you could throw at it. Both tube or tubeless models have excellent grip, wear is not excessive, although your experience will vary with air pressure, frequency of riding and road conditions. Downside with graphine editions of the tire (my experience.) Cuts can occur at times easily, once the wear has been prolonged, you could ... could experience the rubber on the center tread in spots; peel back to expose the cords. Now this has happened to me with only the tubeless model. All that being said, none of this should be a detraction from purchasing the Rubino Pro. If you are coming from a GP5000 or Vittoria Corsa. You will notice a slight change in ride quality. This can be adjusted with air pressure. I have found the Rubino to have just as good a grip as GP5000 or Corsa. The ride feel is just not quite as smooth. Again this will be determined by air pressures, wheels and frame.

This tire is one of the few quality bike tires available that offers the red sidewall which looks fabulous on my old school red road bike. The road feel is great. I have ridden about 100 miles on them so far and I look forward to many more miles of smooth riding ahead.

The Vittoria Rubino is the perfect combo of fast training tire, and perfect for the occasional group ride, that you know.... turns into an all out race. Corner's well, smooth AND flat resistant! Great value for the price!

I wanted to get the maximum width that my chainstays would accommodate for my casual road bike to soften/improve the ride. The wheels are HED Ardennes with a 21mm internal width. I was running an old set of Michelin Pro2, 700x25, which measured 700x27 on these wide rims. The Vittoria 700x28, measured 700x28, which tells me they would measure less than 28mm on older narrow rims such as my Mavic Ksyrium Elites with their 14mm rim width. This indicates they are undersized. Curious what other people are measuring once mounted.

To give you an example of rim width affecting tire width, I mounted 700x25 Michelin Pro4 Endurance on my new HED Ardennes+ with its 25mm rims. The 25mm tires stretched out to 29.5mm on those rims. This is in line with what HED promotes/claims. I was expecting to get at least 30mm on my new Vittoria tires with my 21mm Ardenne rims.

The last point. Another reviewer compared the Vittorias to Michelin Pro4 Endurance and said they were more compliant/softer or something like that. I run both the Pro4s and the Pro2's. I can definitely say my Michelin Pro2's were more comfortable tires than these Vittoria's that replaced them. So these tires were disappointments in both areas.

Maybe they handle better. On this bike, I'm not pushing that on the local MUP, so it is a minor consideration.

To end on a positive note, I got the two-pack with tubes. Great value and they look great on a vintage bike with the tan sides.
