Excellent Touring/Commuter tire! These are stupid light, the most supple ride in their class, with fantastic puncture resistance and fast due to very low rolling resistance in casing and compound! I have owned almost every top tire made, and these are my favorite overall. If Pure puncture resistance is your goal, try Specialized All Condition Armadillo Elites, they are not as light, nor do they ride nice, or as fast as they have very stiff casings. They also only come up to size 32c no larger. My next favorite tire would be Vittoria Randonneur Pro, then Schwalbe Marathon Supremes, as they both roll fairly fast(though not as fast), they ride fairly smooth(though not as smooth), they are light(though not as light), Schwalbe has the newest tech in puncture resistance Vectran, but I have punctured those, and have not punctured my Vittoria Randonneur Pros or Voyager Hypers at all! I belive some flats are tech based, but many have more to do with time and chance and a persons riding style or habbits! I run the 35c version of the Hypers and they are on H Plus Son rims (23mm external width/17mm internal width) and they measure 37.25mm at full pressure on this wheel! So I would say they have very accurate sizing, as these tires are designed to be run on touring/commuter rims which usually are in this size category or even larger! There are other good tires, but not in this size, quality, style ect... Continentals too heavy and not fast enough, Bonti-Trek Good but far heavier and very undersized.

4.0 out of 5 stars These tires are fast and tough!

Rated: 700X32c
Bike: 2012 Salsa Casserole
Purchased: Aug. 2014
Mileage So Far: approx. 1500-2000 miles
Use:
- Several gravel-grinding/road bike tours (about 600-700 miles total packing about 40lbs. w/ 220lb. rider)
- Club road rides

Pro:
- super fast! Compared to Schwalbe Marathon & Plus & Pasela GT’s I am noticeably faster, making it fun to lead the pack on club road rides and knowing I’m the most comfortable
- Easy to un/install
- Reflective rim
- Handle well on gravel
- Only 1 flat
- Wear evenly

Con:
- quite a few pits and large gashes in tire
- rate tire life at 2500-3000 miles with my riding style
- Center tire tread pattern is shallow and almost gone one one tire after miles noted above

I’d give them 5 stars if I’d had more experience with different tires to compare, but overall I wouldn’t think twice about purchasing again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome tires

I bought these tires to install in my Hybrid, the Globe Work 1. My bike came with rather fat 700x38 tires. They were very heavy, not particularly comfortable and they wore down after 2 winters. Enter Vittoria. I bought these in 700x32 with flexible bead. First of all, they are so much lighter, I shaved about 2 lbs of weight from tires alone. Also, they are very easy to install since they are not held in place by a rigid steel wire bead. Secondly, the rolling resistance is so much less that I find myself riding a little faster than usual - They really are THAT good. Traction is very good as well, even in rainy weather. The reflective strips are very cool and can be seen easily from far away.

Last but not least, I was afraid they wouldn't handle bumps very well since these are narrower than my original tires, but they actually absorb the nasty bumps of the road pretty well, even when inflated near the maximum (90 PSI).

All in all - if you have a city bike and you need something far better than the mediocre tires most city bikes come with - the Vittorias are a great choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT a touring tire (learned from experience)
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2017
Verified Purchase
These are absolutely NOT fit to be touring tires, regardless of what Vittoria named them.
These are fat road bike tires, paper-thin with very low durability. You will regret trying to tour with them, as I did...

Rolling resistance is said to be very low for these tires, that's why I bought them. In practice, the resistance seemed low only when they were jacked up to 80+ PSI. Otherwise, not much faster. The major difference was durability - these suck!! Durability tests for these tires showed they were roughly half the puncture resistance as other options. In practice, that 2x difference in puncture resistance is HUGE!! These have absolutely no puncture protection beyond the paper-thin rubber. I had 3 punctures in 3 weeks, the last one completely destroying the tire. Seriously, you don't want to go anywhere far from home on these things!

Timeline of failure:
- Bought these for a 6-week loaded bike tour in Germany/France (with exceptionally good road quality).
- Before I left, I rode around town a couple weeks, during which I had one flat from tiny bits of glass.
- I added tube liner to the rear tire, which now made the tire as heavy as competing options.
- First week on tour, one puncture from a thorn, and I noticed numerous gouges in the rubber simply from going through sand / gravel on the road.
- Second week - complete failure! - a tiny piece of chipseal (rock found in virtually all asphalt) sliced a 4mm gash clean through the rubber, blowing out the front tire (which had no liner). Even with a liner, the gash was big enough that any tube would hemorrhage out.
- Replaced them with Schwalbe Marathons (which I was super lucky to find nearby). The Marathons (which have a built-in puncture protection layer) were vastly stronger, and lasted through many more weeks of rough conditions without any issues whatsoever. The Voyagers could never have survived - not a chance!!

Recommendation:
Schwalbe Marathons are somewhat heavy and probably a bit sluggish (if you don't keep them well-inflated) but they are bomb-proof. I'm not absolutely recommending them, perhaps there are other better options, but I am absolutely recommending you stay far far away from the Voyagers.

I commute 60 miles a day. These things flat super often. I even paired them with these strangely-shaped already-slimed michelin tubes. I pull the <whatever> out of the tire and the tubes eventually seal. That's great, but these things flat more than any other tire I've used. Come on! If you want to avoid flats then get their randonneur line. Or really, just get the schwalbe marathons (too bad they're so ugly...)

4.0 out of 5 stars ７００ｃ　３２ｍｍ幅で重量は３８５ｇでした。
Reviewed in Japan on October 23, 2016

注文して翌々日にもう届きました。配送は早く大満足でした。
商品のほうも、走行はなめらかで安定感がある気がします。
ペダルが驚くほど軽くなったという感じではありませんが、転がりはよく、走行音も静かで、高級感がある気がします。
規定圧の６気圧の空気をいれていますが、クッション性は良いほうだと思います。
転がり抵抗は低く、クッション性もよいというところでは高いレベルでのバランスのとれたタイヤといえる気がします。

マキシス・デトネーター⇒パナレーサー・パセラブラック⇒本商品、と買い替えてきました。

マキシス・デトネーターは、スリックで圧力も高いのに転がりがわるく、クッションがほとんど感じられず、すぐにパンクしてしまったため、パンクしにくいと評判の、パナレーサーブラックに買い替えて、パンクはしにくく、グリップも耐摩耗性もころがり具合もまあまあ良かったのですが、６００ｇという重さは繰り返し乗っているとかなり気になってきて、乗る気を失せさせました。今回、本商品に買い替えて、転がり抵抗、軽さ、乗り心地が改善しましたので、耐久性や耐パンク性能もチェックしていきたいと思います。

私はリムを２セットもっていて、もう一セットのほうには、２３ｍｍ幅のミシュランのリチオン２をつけていて、そちらは非常に軽いです。スピードも出ますし、今までにパンクも一回もしてませんが、タイヤが細いので耐摩耗性はどうしても３２ｍｍ幅のものには及びません。舗装が荒れた道路だとなんとなくハンドルがとられそうで怖いです。街乗りにはやはりある程度のタイヤ幅があったほうが安定感があるように思います。

Very pleased with this tyre..Ticks all the boxes..inflate up to 80psi. For some reason I found I needed three hands as opposed to two to fit the tyre.So for the very first time in my life I used a cable tie to help the process..And with the tie in place it took seconds to pull on.
Not the cheapest product but hopefully will last a long time and stand up to the hedge cutters thorns which are on our local country roads.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stabiler Reifen mit geringem Rollwiderstand
Reviewed in Germany on May 15, 2014

Dieser Reifen, der eher Rennradreifen als Eltern hat, wurde meiner Meinung nach für all diejenigen gebaut, die ein Mountainbike besitzen und damit doch nur in der Stadt fahren.

Für mich erfüllt der Reifen genau diesen Zweck, hat eine stabile Seitenwand, einen gefühlt sehr geringen Rollwiderstand und fährt sich trotz dem nicht allzu unkomfortabel.

Fazit: Klasse Reifen!
