I just replace the Vittoria Rubino Pro 700c x 20 tyres on my fixed-up fixopholous.
They are blue and black... and the crack betwixt colour bands was big enough to drive a car along... A big car.
I run them at 110psi front and 120psi rear.... The cracks and fissures were starting to worry me.
Well... I've changed them for similar (but new) tyres. No drama.
However... When I removed them, the central black contact patch between the swathes of blue almost peeled off between my fingers.
I've been descending steepo hills on these tyres at 32-33 mph (which is fast on that bike).
Clever budgeting or stupidity? I find myself edging towards the latter.
