I don't know if the graphene makes any difference, but these tires have held up as well as any I've tried. The price for a Kevlar bead tire is reasonable. I got about 3,000 miles from my last rear tire before I started getting punctures. Replaced tire before the thread showed, but I suspect the tread was getting thin.

I use these tires to commute on my road bike during months without ice. They hold up well on urban streets and give the best traction for the cost I have found.

650 miles wth zero flats through lots of road debris, gravel, glass, etc. Fully confident in them. Long-distance recreational enthusiast. These work extremely well on my Bianchi Infinito CV Disc. They came stock on my bike (700x25) and I see no reason to change. Very pleased with the ride, flat-prevention and durability.

I use these tires on my road bike, and I ride on non-paved trails as well. I try to remember to rotate my tires about every thousand miles, seems to balance out the wear for me. I keep these for at least 3,000 miles before I change them out for new ones (same model, btw). I am very happy with the performance of these, I will be putting on my fourth set sometime this month. I like them a lot, have had no issues with excessive flats or wear, so I will continue to use thise things that work for me.

I use it for my every day rides. It feels durable as well as comfortable.

The tires so far seem well made. No issues and they handle very well

I have been riding these Vittoria tires for many weeks now on my daily commute. This autumn in Seattle has been a really wet one and these tires are fantastic in the wet and inspire confidence while cornering and descending in wet weather. They are also flat resistant - I ride through an industrial section every day and inevitably go through broken up glass, sharp gravel, and thin wire bits that I guess escape from truck tires. These tires have been bullet proof so far. In fact, I am slightly superstitious about the Vittoria brand - in general I just don't get many flats with Vittoria tires (still using tubes - I know - old fashioned) and have enjoyed many miles on their tires on various bikes. These are also pretty small 28mm tires so if you have space for a little more cushion, I recommend these tires.

I Use Vittoria tires after many years racing and training on Michelin. I was tired of changing flats. I found the Rubino pro G a great tool a lot stiffer ride but the carbon seams to take up some of that. I will trade the stiffness for flats. Have used them three winters now and will keep using them. I even took them to France and put some big climbs and descents on them in the Alps. I am 200 lb 6'2' and like a tire that will stay with me. My tolerance for risk is diminishing but my desire to still ride exciting routs is not.

Picked these up after I ran over something with another brand & developed a bulge in a tire (at about 800 mi.).These tires roll quite well, and seem to hold up to all the stuff I run over. Have only had them for about a month, so I can't say how well they will last
Review by lunchrider

Review by dp
I upgraded my tires on my new Trek Emonda from the stock tires that come with the build (25mm) to the Vitoria Rubino Pro G (28mm) and could not be happier. The stock tires were very light but I was getting flats on every ride. I've been running the Rubino Pro G for about 3 months and no flats. The other huge plus about these tires is the handling and they are superb. On long fast descents the tires handle perfect and being 28mm have great traction when it matters but low rolling resistance on the flats. The tires are a great compliment to the disc brakes I have on the Emonda.

I love these tires on my summer road bike. Good flat resistance. Great wear. Thanks BTD for the sale.

I purchased these tires because a friend has used them for years and swears by them. He rides almost every day and puts in A LOT of miles each week. I've only had them on my road bike for 3 months, but they've been great so far. The roads have been really crappy this past year and I've had to replace tires within a few months due to cuts and punctures from glass and other nasty stuff in the shoulders of the road. I check my tires before each ride and these tires have been great so far. I'm optimistic enough about them that I already bought a back-up set for when the time comes for me to replace the current set.

I have been using the Vittoria Rubino tires for several years now after having tried several others. I am getting around 5,000 or so kms, before I replace them. They have a great ride and flats are non-existent. The tires are also easy to install.
Review by Wexal
With a Vittoria bias from using the Rubino Pro III (23cm) for some time now. At first, there was a bit of balloon tire shock, the ride was even more comfortable, like buttah, the handling is better. After a few weeks of group rides and hood rides, over several hundred miles, I'm enjoying the ride and the grip of the 25's. Am more confident at speed, the group averages 27 kph to 31 kph over 80km. Haven't done any serious gap descents yet so am looking forward to that. I usually get at least a season worth of rides on the previous tires before replacing and can't see any reason so far that my expectations should change.
Review by juaniflaco
these are much more supple than the last generation of Rubino Pro, they feel comparable to the Conti GP4000. Have held up perfectly in a race at Brooklyn's Floyd Bennet Field, notorious for flats, and a 75 mile ride upstate. Only remark is that the 25s seem a bit narrow, more like a 23 on other tires.

I purchased a set of 700x25's a couple of month's ago, and so far these tires have performed as advertised ! The bike lanes where I ride are horrible to say the least! All of the road debris gets swept into the bike lanes and left there. I haven't had any tire cuts or punctures so far, and the tires seem to be holding up very well! I plan on purchasing another pair in the near future, in 28's though. The tires corner well, and roll smooth! I would highly recommend purchasing a set of these tires, and giving them a spin!
Review by drcbike
Handle nicely and absorbs the shocks while still transmitting the road surface information so critical to good handling.
Review by Bobby
I'm a casual cyclist who occasionally rides short distances. These tires were a replacement for the original tires, and the bike was purchased in 2012. Therefore, keep that in mind while reading my review. I've only put about 40 miles on these tires, but so far really like them. I like the tread design, and they are faster than my old tires. Also, they were easy to install. I usually ride on the shoulder of a main road, and occasionally encounter glass and other road debris. So far, I'm completely satisfied with this tire.
Review by CycleGeek
Bought a set of 30mm for my commuter bike. These tires give a lot of confidence with the ride and traction they provide. I got about 500 miles on them before I got my first flat - a large thorn punctured right through the middle band of the tire. I never experienced anything like that with my previous continental gp all seasons, so I'm faced with a trade off. I will continue to ride the Pro G until the next flat, then it's back to the Contis. Will see if I was just really unlucky or if the durability of these tires is overstated.
