Vittoria Zaffiro Pro G2.0 Road Bike Tires Set with Inner Tubes - Includes 2 Zaffiro Pro Tires (700x23c) Plus 2 Standard Tubes (700X20/28 48mm) - Performance Training in All Conditions (Full Black)

I HAVE USED VITTORIA'S LESS EXPENISVE ROAD TIRES ON MY GEURCIOTTI AND ORBEA FOR ABOUT FIFTEEN YEARS. i KEEP A GOODE SUPPLY IN RESERVE TO LET THEM AGE A COUPLE YEARS TO LET THEM CURE FOR SOME LONGER WEAR. VERY GOOD PRODUCT AND TUBES TO BOOT!!!

Excellent choice. This was a kit that included two tires plus the inner tubes. The price was better than buying the tires alone. Now, I have a spare inner tube. Definitely, this is the way to go if you need new tires.

Just got the Vittoria Zaffiro Pro and after a little bit of wrangling was able to install both front and back tires. The tires look really good and appear to be sturdy enough. Only problem was the inner tubes, one had a pinch flat after an hour and the other was flat after a day. I installed generic (Performance Forte) inner tubes and it's all good to go!

Been riding for 50 years and am simply unwilling to pay as much for a bike tire as I would a small car tire; it's just not happening.So, I purchased these in 700x23 based mostly upon the price.Couple things-These are for training so they are heavier tires; if you are Johnny racer then these are not for you. Luckily, those days are over for me so these will fill the bill if the expected tread life is as advertised.I've ridden Vittoria tires in years past, they did not last very long...They are a very tight fit on the rim, never had a kevlar bead that didn't almost mount itself.This one does not mount itself,even after laying in the hot sun for an hour.That said, it did mount with hands/fingers only.But if you do get a flat out on the road, find some shade because you will be there for a while.One disappointment is the tubes, which I ordered in the short (35mm) valve stem length; what I received was the long 43mm valve stem.Not the end of the world, but I had selected short for a reason.One big negative is the removable valve core 'technology' .I have avoided these for a couple reasons-1) it is a possible point to fail and leak. Do you carry spare valve cores? I don't.2) I use a thread on air chuck; this is extremely annoying with a removable core which tends to be removed when unscrewing the chuck.OTOH, they did arrive in a timely manner and intact,not crushed in transit.That's a thumbs up.Does anyone else feel like, these days, one should be thankful that they got anything at all and just shut up about what didn't meet expectations?This is an early review as these are newly mounted but if I get a full season out of them then I will be satisfied.At this price, it's difficult not to like these tires/tubes.Edit: as predicted, these 2 part valve stems are a complete nightmare and do not hold air for long and require a daily top up.Tires themselves? Meh.They did last one season- though my mileage was only half of normal.I would skip these, to be honest.

These were the closest to factory. Have only mounted one so far. New supplied tube leaks

Very hard to install but ride great.

Was initially exited about my purchase (good reviews and price) but came to find out quickly that these tires are not what they claim to be. Tires were installed on a Motobecane flat bar road bike, one I use for commuting back and forth to work (on paved trails). Whereas the original tires lasted well over 2,500 miles (without flats), I encountered my first flat (rear) a couple days after installation. This appeared to be a pinch flat, and I blamed myself for not having mounted the tire and innertube correctly. I replaced the innertube with a brand-new one, and ended up with another flat the following day. Being that I cannot afford getting to work late (too) many times, I remove the rear tire altogether, and replaced it with a Gatorskin. I left the front tire as is (and it has been fine, or so I thought). A couple days ago I checked my tire pressure, and while doing this noticed severe weathering of the tire's side wall (see attached images). I do not recall ever seeing this on a tire that is only a few months old. Long story short, I would not recommend this tire.

1 out of 4 items was defective. Specifically, one of the inner tubes.
