Strengths: Measure out to 25.5 mm. No other sew-up comes close for comfort. Not as lumpy as Conti Competitions or Sprinter 250sWeaknesses: Only available in ugly green. I seem to need to reglue Vittorias after long rainy rides, never had to do this with Conti's.Bottom Line: Big fat footprint for comfort and grip. Supports my 210 lbs and is still comfortable. The last 2 looked really deformed (entire tire was skewed towards one side of basetape)when not inflated, but looked correct (even and round) when inflated. Although inflated and stretched for 2 weeks, I had a valve stem failure within the first 10 km of actual riding recently, they refused to warranty them because they had been glued. If they were still available, I would purchase the 25 mm Sonderklasses but these are all that's available if you want big. Mapei wins Paris-Roubaix every year on them.
