Pirelli Cinturato Velo Road Bike Tire (Long Rides), Clincher Tubeless Ready, Confident Handle Vari Terrains & Worst Conditions, X-Puncture Protect,(1) Tire, Black or Classic Tan Sidewall / Vari Sizes

These are great if you can find them on sale. They strike a good balance between durability and speed. They're relatively light, but I still got about 2,500 miles on a rear tire. They aren't super beefy, so you're going to get some cuts, but I wouldn't say that they are a fragile tire. They handle great and are nice and grippy. Caveat: I live in the desert, so I can't say how well they perform in the rain. The price is reasonable compared to other tubeless tires. Installation (on Ultegra rims) was easier than most tubeless tires I've tried. if I were paying MSRP for all my tires, I would ride these all the time. However, I tend to buy whatever I can find on clearance, so I have tried a lot of different brands over the years.

Maybe like me, you have been trying to find these information online with no avail. So here’s some information in my review that hopefully is helpful! I ride an ebike that’s 55lb that come with a 700c x 40mm, the tube version has a few flats within 100miles ride. I then converted to a tubeless one but I lag behind when riding with road bikers. Believe it or not, I need to be in sports more with 170% assist to ride on par with the road bikers. So I have searched and wanted a new pair of tubeless tires that have lower rolling resistance yet strong enough for road ride and extra ebike weight. I now fitted the 32mm ones on my ebike and it rides wonderful and quiet! REI did the install which was flawless. Some pictures on the specs. REI has it pumped to 72psi which is the max for tubeless. But with the extra weight, I may just settle for around 65psi. So far so good and glad I decided on this instead of the Conti 5000 STR. Would love more rolling resistance, but I think a good puncture resistance balance is important. Packaging and quality is very good too!

I am using these tires on a rim that was not advertised tubeless. I've had zero issue with their fit and sealing ability while running tubeless with orange sealant. I am beyond happy with the performance of these tires. I've ran several other brands for puncture resistance. These by far have been the best after riding nearly 1,000 miles. I will continue to use these tires in the future. They look great, are light weight and seem to do well in most road conditions.

I went from a Bontrager tire with more aggressive road / commuter tread to this tire and it feel like a different bike. The I can feel that the Pirelli has lower rolling resistence. I would give the traction a lower score than Pirelli does. I find that I'm skidding frequently when I apply the brakes now.

I bought these on 4/21/2020. At first these were easy to install (+1). Since these are larger 28c, I only put about 50 Ibs (I'm 5'7" ~164 for bike and everything). I've tried Conti GP 5k TL's, These POS, and am trying Vitorria Corsa Control G2.0 TLR 25c). I have a Topeak Joe Blow, and always run Stans TL Sealant (Orange Seal sucks). Here's my impressions: Pro's: - Smooth - Quiet - Easy to get on the rim (due to the larger size vs Conti GP 5k TL's - 25c) Con's: - Difficult to seat on Enve 3.4's (way to large and required me to pinch and hold to get it right) - Catastrophic failure (see pictures), this is nowhere near safe as something sliced through the tire. Luckily I was at the tail of a group ride and only going 15 mph on flat ground - Slippery around corners. This is the first crash I've had going 7 mph downhill on a corner that was slightly damp (not wet).

I have the 700x32 version, and run them tubeless with Orange Seal, on 700Cx23.4mm internal width rims. Getting these onto the rim was decently difficult, and I had to use two tire levers. Once they were on the rim however, I was able to pump them up and seat them right off the bat. Adding sealant went well as well. I've put about 850 miles on these so far, and I haven't gotten a flat, and they seem to have a decent bit of life left in them. Their grip in decent weather is great, and on my few rides where there was rain, or the ride a couple of days after snowfall have been decent, although I did slip once on wet leaves. The tread is not very thick, and wore away relatively quickly, but they're also slick tires. My couple of rides on a packed dirt rail trail went well, except when I was going uphill on particularly loose gravel while standing.

I've been using these tires for five years. I love them. They are awesome. This year I have new carbon rims and this set of Cinturatos mounted without tire irons(700x28). I've been tubeless for seven years. The Cinturatos seated immediately, no fuss, no mess. The air leaked pretty quickly. I re-inflated the tires, this time the Cinturatos seated even better and did not lose air for two hours. I this point, I inserted the sealant and the tires were good to go. No pressure lost in the last four days. In five years I have never had a flat. I've never even had a sealant spray event. And that's commuting to NYC, 23 miles(one-way), for five years. I ride at least 5000 miles a year. The front tire once lasted 10K! This is the only tire to consider when going for endurance, bomb-proof durability and never the one to have a flat on a group ride.

Le gomme hanno un ottima tenuta di strada anche sul bagnato ....confortevole sull asfalto sconnesso....per il genere di gomma sono molto scorrevoli..nn le più leggere sul mercato ma ci sta....ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo....

Secondo treno che monto del modello Cinturato. Da tre utilizzo solo le pirelli su diverse ruote. A mio modesto parere le migliori per qualità sicurezza e durata.

Normally an endurance tire rides and handles like its made of wood. Not so these Pirelli Cinturato. Compliant ride, sharp handling, an unexpected bonus and best of the tires I've used in this class.

I received what I ordered in the delivery window (despite the postal strike) with no issues.

Great tires! ✊
