Panaracer Pana RiBMo Bicycle Tire with Protex Shield (Aramid Bead Folding, 700x25, Black) Review
I'm a moderately heavy rider (195 in gear, plus 15lbs of cr*p in the panniers) and I ride every day in all but freezing ice weather. I've got 3800+ miles on my current tire, a 32x700 and it's doing really well. Probably get another 2k miles on it before the tread wears off. The tire has reasonable rolling resistance, and is a bit heavy but with my load I really can't tell. The route I ride has rolling hills and a couple of steep climbs. If I was riding no load, and Sunday great weather smooth roads, I might pick a lighter tire, say a ribmo 25, but commuting the last thing I want to do is repair a flat in the rain so I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of weight for much more reliability.My front tire is a Specialized Armidillo all conditions and it has a zillion tiny cuts in the tread. I'm about to get rid of it. Both tires were put on within the same week and usually I wear the rear tire more than the front. I'm sold on the Ribmo, both the cost, and reliability. I have had glass pierce both kinds of tires so they aren't 100 flat proof but the ribmo seems to be holding up better.
My previous tires were the Continential Gatorskin 700x28 and I had repeated sidewall failures with those tires. They rode nice but lasted only 3k and the sidewall failure the first time caught me by surprise and I fell. After that I kept a closer eye on it and replaced the tire before they failed.
