Best turbo tyre I've found
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Good Fit, quiet
"Not only was this tyre significantly cheaper than any other turbo tyre I could find it also performers brilliantly. I was prepared to accept a poorer performance given the price but have been amazed - its lasting well (I have used my turbo most days during the past snowy weather rather than risk broken bones) and is quiet. I like things on my bike to match and for it to look good at all times, the red matches the white/black/red frame and also the red front tyre. Brilliant all round - literally!"

Spin to your hearts content
Pros: Durable, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Rugged
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"Prior to buying this turbo specific tyre I was using continental 4 seasons, which worked well enough. However, they are expensive and should really be put to good use outside in this super british winter ;-)
I looked at the conti turbo tyre (yellow) and this one from vittoria. The smaller price tag persuaded me in the end.
Riding on the turbo is no different, but this tyre does run smoothly and makes a bit less noise. Now this doesn't really bother me, as I don't hear anything other than Led Zeppelin on the iPod, but it is of benefit to those not on the turbo!
Getting the vittoria zaffiro pro home trainer tyre and a second (inexpensive) rear wheel has enabled me to just swop out the wheel when I want to spin, rather than having to change tyre each time.

Turbo Tyre
"Had been using an old road tyre on the turbo but is was reach it's life end. This tyre was cheaper than the Conti one.
So far it is quiet, was easy to fit and seems durable.

sticky tyre
Pros: Durable, Great Value, High Quality, Adjustable, Good Fit
"the indoor trainer tyre is holding up great, unlike normal road tyres that overheat and get soft and slip the indoor trainer tyre stays consistant all the way through the training ride. seems to be hard wearing, and the red colour looks great."

Worked fine for a month or so, then . . .
Pros: Attractive
Cons: Low Quality, Wears Out Easily
"After seemingly perfect for about a month of turbo training, I started noticing tiny red specks all overs my bike frame and wall. The tyre is slowly being shredded by the turbo trainer - not something I'd expect from a tyre designed for such a purpose.
I have tried altering the tyre height setting on the trainer to vary the resistance being placed on the tyre by the trainer, but it didn't make any difference.
I'd recommend looking for an alternative tyre. Maybe just the one I received is defective?"

固定ローラー台にお勧めします
Pros: 耐久性
""Elite SuperCrono Fluid ElastoGel Digital Trainer"で使用しています。7ヶ月5000km以上使用しましたが全くと言ってよい程減りません。減らないので削りカスが出ません(固定ローラー台がエラストゲルローラーだからか?)。硬めのタイヤなので、慣ない人にはホイールに嵌めにくいかもしれません。"

Odd ribbing on the tyre
Pros: Attractive
Cons: Expensive
"Rather than a slick surface, this tyre has ribbs along the tyre. Consequently, my trainer was left with very small strips melted onto the friction drum. They went after further rides/TT sessions. Not a real problem just odd design.
The colour means I won't accidentally ride on the road with it.

Pros: Great Value, High Quality, Good Fit
"I had read reviews on turbo trainers to replace the tyre otherwise it will shred the one on the bike. I looked at quite a few reviews, although wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to be looking for, but this seemed to have some good reviews. I had a friend swap the tyre over and although I've only used it a few times it seems fine. And for the reasonable price it was I'm very happy with it"

Does what it says on the tin
Pros: Durable, High Quality
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"Being using this 4-5 times a week without any reason to complain.
As I don't have a spare wheel for the turbo I have to change tyres over whenever I have used my bike outside and I have never had a problem fitting or removing the tyre.

Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Home Trainer Tyre
Pros: menos ruido
"No llevo mucho tiempo con ella, la compre como complemento para mi rodillo elite, por su mayor durabilidad y reducción ruido. Es pronto para hacer una valoración mas exacta, pero si es cierto que ha disminuido algo el ruido. Aunque no espereis que sea un silenciador."

No surprises
"I was quite concerned when I started using this item because it shed some of its tread which ended up on the wall behind the bike. However while it still loses some tread it is so slight as to be acceptable and it certainly does not get as hot as the last tyre I had on the bike. I think it will last a good deal of time and was a worthwhile purchase.
Oh, it was a bugger to fit but once on it was fine."

Trainer tyres are a necessity!
Pros: Great Value, Rugged, High Quality
"If you are going to use a turbo trainer you really should use a specific tyre. If you try using a normal tyre you will just end up trashing it really quickly.
This tyre has worked perfectly. It has lasted through more than 100 hours on the turbo and still looks in perfect condition - no signs of wear. It is a bit quieter than using a normal tyre as well, which is a bonus (especially as far as the neighnours are concerned)"
