Price Paid:  $30.00 at Ebay

Favorite Ride:
Alps

Bike Setup:
Merlin Extralight, Campy record excepted Mythic Carbon crankset, 3T less Stem and Bars, Neutron or Spinergy Xaero Wheels, San Marco Caymano Saddle (great saddle!)

Summary:
I 'm used to Vred tires and I was curious to test their 4 seasons product "Quattro".
The tires are ugly , but their qualities are evident : low rolling resistance, comfort (even if "normal" fortezza tricomp do better) dynamic behaviour, great puncture resistance,very good on summer or winter roads.

Strengths:
rolling resistance
Comfort
puncture resistant
very good on wet road
long life last
not heavy

Weaknesses:
Maybe less precise and comfortable than original Vredestein Fortezza Tricomp.

Favorite Ride:
any

Bike Setup:
Look 585, DA triple, Race X Lite wheels

Summary:
Very durable tread and sidewalls. OK, not the same sensation as a lighter weight race tire, but only 1 flat after 7,000 miles, and none since. Commute 24 miles/day rain/snow/shine and love to ride dirt roads. Tires are amazingly uncut after 7,500 miles of carefree riding, and still going strong.

Strengths:
Best combination of durability and ride quality I've found for daily riding.

Weaknesses:
Better ride quality and performance can be found in lighter, less durable tires.
