Strengths: Vittoria Diamante Pro II - great grip, excellent weight, very puncture resistant, super speedWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: I use these form over 4 years and they are great! I train and race on them without any mercy and they suffer a lot but still I can count on them. Last pair lasted 12k km. They wear but if you want to have a grip you have to accept the wear. There is no other solution. I don't believe in stories of super resistant, super grip, super cheap, super long lasting tires. Any plastic Kendas will last longer but the biker himself possibly will not survive. In the race or hard training you have to trust your tires... and Diamante Pro are worth of trust.

Strengths: Fast Rolling
Look goodWeaknesses: Durability
Poor HandlingBottom Line: Came on the bike and have only lasted 3 months (2000) and all the tread is gone on the back, down to the casing. Never gave much confidence in cornering, felt squirmy and didn't like to be lent over (tall narrow profile?)
Similar Products Used: Continental GP4000s - better conering, wear a little better

Strengths: NoneWeaknesses: Very weak tyresBottom Line: My new bike came equipped with these tyres and I've just replaced rear and front after about 4 months and less than 700 miles.
Tyres developed cuts and nicks very quickly and picked up lots of punctures as a result. Interesting to read other reports of this below.
Now replaced with a set of gatorskins. Let's see how these go. The Vittoria Diamante pro are well worth avoiding.

Strengths: Grippy, fast, long lasting, light.Weaknesses: None really.Bottom Line: These are good tires. The dissing is undeserved. They're light, they have a grippy file tread for cornering, roll well and hold up well on chip and seal roads. I've never flatted one in more than 2000 miles and consider this a top training and climbing clincher, equal to, but lighter than, the Conti 4000s. I don't know what these other reviewers are doing, but some of their comments are pretty absurd. If you flat new tires like that, it's obviously operator error.

Strengths: smooth, supple riding. Very easy to installWeaknesses: flats, cuts, do not wear wellBottom Line: This was my second set of the Diamante Pros. Loved the smooth supple ride, hated the flats. Been riding for close to 20 years and never had as many flats. Time to try something new after my last tire cut on a club ride last weekend.
I need a tire that is fairly easy to change on the road and has some type of flat protection. I Just ordered Conti GP 4000s so I hope to be spending less time changing tires and more time riding.
