Good winter trail tyre
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Rugged, Good Fit
Cons: cornering not great on tarmac
"I bought these for riding through the quagmire that is the local canal towpath during the wet winter months. They're cheap, not too bad to fit and I haven't had a p***ture yet. One downside: cornering on Tarmac can be a bit sluggish - have to be a bit careful and anticipate it."

superb tyre for trail/road use

does the job
Pros: Attractive
Cons: Expensive, Bulky
"bought as a commuter tyre, it is quite heavy and suprisingly tall so took ages to adjust mudguards - I didn't have this problem with previous 700x35 tyres.
Not puncture proof! I bought only for puncture proofness and trail ability and on my second day into work I heard the dreaded hissssssssssss!
very good reflective on side wall.
an annoying tyre due to this really but probably good."

Great Choice
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, Rugged, High Quality
"I wanted tyres to fit on a Scott Sub 25 for use on gravel trail, mud and tarmac during my usual 20 mile off road exercise route. Massive choice available and opted for these due to the spec and price. Turned out to be the perfect choice with confident grip on all surfaces in all weathers over the past 3 months. Bonus of reflective bands on the walls adds to the safety aspect. Will buy again at this price. Fantastic value"

Good tyre for the price
Pros: Great Value, High Quality
"Bought these to replace a pair of aged ones on my better half's old German hybrid. They are somewhat deeper than the old Hutchinson ones they replaced and are a tight fit if the bike has mudguards.That said they are a good tyre for the price."

Great commuter tyres
Pros: Great Value, High Quality
"I have been using these tyres for my daily commute for almost a year now and I have been very impressed, they are reasonably fast rolling for tarmac and also perform really well on the muddy and slippery towpath and more recently they have been impressive in the snow.
For the cost I would recommend these to any commuter and they are actually much better quality than the Continentals I had previously which were twice the price.
Finally I haven’t had a single puncture with these tyres, superb."

Sturdy tyres but watch the cornering
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, High Quality, Adjustable, Versatile
"Bought these now that the wintery weather is here. I'm using them on a hybrid bike which I use for the daily commute and which has a child seat fixed for the nursery run. The tyres feel very sturdy and trustworthy on the road but I find corners have to be taken very carefully as I feel the tyres don't grip the road as I would like. Same goes for some bumps one encounters on the road (eg cracked tarmac, raised yellow lines) which if not hit straight or if hit unexpectedly can lead to a bit of a wobble. This is more noticeable when I have the extra weight of my son in the child seat. I very much like the reflective aspect of the tyres - a great innovation for these dark nights. I'd recommend them for the price, quality and robustness but just don't expect to take corners too quickly."

Awesome tyres
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, High Quality
"I bought these after having read the reviews and I wanted good tyres that weren't very expensive. These are very good! And a plus is that the tyres has reflector on it, so very good for cycling safely around London. I would definetely recommend these."

Quality bargain.
Pros: Great Value, Versatile
"What more do you want for the price. All round, all season every day commuter tyre. Slicks with grips. First set so can't give durability.can't see why they would fail when they tick all the other boxes."

Good all rounder
Pros: Durable, Rugged, High Quality, Versatile, Good Fit
Cons: heavy, cornering resistance
"Coming from lightweight cyclocross tyres that punctured a lot, these seem an affordable choice for puncture protection, so far so good.
They're a great on/off road tyre for commute or touring but noticeably on the heavy side. Also odd resistance on cornering that takes getting used to.
Having said that, they're very good off road on gravel and rough trails and with low-ish rolling resistance on road (that's off-set by the extra weight)
Very good for the price"

great tyre
"The tyre went on pretty easy,(its the first time I have done it since I was a nipper!) I have a giant hybrid bike which I cycle to and from work, its half road, half trail (which is pretty stoney) I had kenda tyres on the bike since new and they have been fine although as soon as I put on the vittoria on I felt that It was a much better grip. I feel a lot more confident on the trail part of my journey and I think I will replace the front soon too. Would recommend, although I have limited experience it feels good to me."
