Using this tire on my Elite Qubo Fluid trainer
Not quite sure what others are on about with this tire being louder than the road tires. This tire is 100% quieter than the Kenda Hybrid Road tire that I briefly tested the trainer with. Currently have the trainer tire inflated to 120psi and its showing no signs of bulging. Inner tube is the Co-op (Kenda) 23/25-622 (700c). The trainer has a much better feel with this trainer tire... who would've thunk it!
Quiet tire
I just found out about this tire even though I have had a trainer for many years. With my road bike tires on the trainer I watch tv with the sound at 33 out of 100 still missing dialogue when actors speak softly. With these trainer specific tires I can her dialogue perfectly at level 11. Now I can get through the Winter with much longer sessions. Installing the tires was somewhat difficult for my bike but that is due to my deep aero Zipp wheels
Extremely Quiet!
I normally run 700c x 33 on my cyclocross bike and THESE FIT! All I needed to do was purchase a different size tube. This tire is an absolute pain to get on, but you shouldn't have too hard of a time if you have tire levers. It's also extremely quiet - all I pretty much hear is my chain! I'm SO excited to be able to bike indoors without bothering anyone else that is near me!
Durability is questionable.
I have used the tire for approximately one and a half month. I have it for roughly 880 miles, all on an indoor trainer. I inflate it to approximately 120 PSI before each ride and let some air out after. While my previous tire lasted over 2,000 miles on a trainer, this one was much less durable. I do believe the tire was a bit quieter than my previous tire, which is why it gets two stars rather than one.
Reduced trainer noise by a huge amount!
I bought this for the winter cold days to use with my Kinetic by Kurt Road Machine Trainer. It had made indoor training much more joyful by reducing the noise the road tire had caused before. And I believe this lasts much longer than a road tire on the trainer. Very happy with the purchase, and highly recommended. Only wish it's a few dollars cheaper.
It is what it should be.
It mounted without issue. Good grip and can handle the heat of being on the trainer for an hour at a time. Low noise.
I saw red.......
I picked up this trainer tire a couple weeks ago to use on my beautiful bike on my first trainer. This tire was very easy to put on and didn't take long at all. I did have to use my tire levers, but it's no biggie as long as you are careful. I just didn't have the hand strength.
Saves my road tires.
The trainer tire is quiet, and resists the wear a trainer puts on road rubber. Even better, it can take up to 140 psi (10 bar) - but I leave it at 110-120. Nice addition to indoor training.
Does it's job!
No slippage on the trainer roller and quiet. Close to 2000 miles and no sign of wear. I estimate it'll be good for 5000k at least. (I always loosen the trainer roller pressure to avoid the chance of dead spot.) Thought about buying a different brand to spice up the colors on the trainer (T blue, K green, S yellow, etc), but figured why change?
Tire tread separates
Tire tread separated after only a few hundred miles. REI exchanged it with the same tire. The tread of the second tire separated as well. REI refunded my money with no problem.
