The vittoros are not bad, I still stand by michelins being about as puncture proof as a balloon although they are my main tyre of choice

They are meant to be quite poor, but cheap...rubinos far superior according to @jefmcg and @ianrauk

as what @vickster has said, go for the Rubinos, they are a far better tyre then the Zafirros and for only a few quid more.

im so tempted to get pair of yellow or orange rubinos with new inner tubes but im already on my limit (tough i have savings for september trip to poland) and i try to tell myself ~you dont need them yet, you can wait another week~ but that's so hard Q..Q

 

[vickster]

£9.50 for Rubinos from Wiggle, a fiver more for a pair than the Zaffiros, that's barely a pint (in London)

Why do you need new inner tubes, they are much of a muchness - isn't the bike new?!

 

[Torvi]

well... spares anyway i really think i should pass those tyres pls ppl take my bank card away i already bought alot this week QQ new front dila, bib shorts, tools set...
