Strengths: Grippy, Lightweight, rolling resistance feels lowWeaknesses: VERY prone to punctures, average road feelBottom Line: Too expensive for the low durability. In my opinion, these would be great for short distances like sprint distance triathlons but nothing more than that. Training on these is a terrible idea.
Road feel is average in comparison with the Schwalbe Ultremo ZX (clincher) tyres which feel silky smooth.
Bike Setup: Specialized Transition

Strengths: Light as you can get, nice rim tape constructionWeaknesses: Pressure lasts around 5 hours from around 130. Side wall rubber flakes leaving beading exposed.Bottom Line: If you need vittoria low rolling resistance light weight front tyre for a time trial run on good road surfaces, It's great value. If your doing the Paris roubaix stick to the conti comps.

Strengths: Light, cheapest and best reduction of edge rotational weight.Weaknesses: They will not last long but then they are not meant too. Will not hold air more than a day so if you have to leave a bike in a compound overnight before a race these will not work as they will bleed down...but that is not what they are designed for.Bottom Line: I put these on the wife's sprint triathlon race wheels so they only got about 100 miles on them...which is what they are made for. Light, light, light and on light tubulars it makes a super light setup. Compared to most tubes these take a 1/4 pound of rotational weight off at the permiter of the wheel where it has the most effect. She scored #1 age groups and top 5 women's bike pace in all five or her races. She is good, but these make her better. These are strickly for TT situations like TTs and sprint triathlons...no Ironman stuff for these. Also these are really for top 5 condender class, age group or overall, people where a few seconds really do matter.
