More durable than Gatorskins

I rode these in and out of Boston, in the rain, in the snow, on the shoulder of the road, and even on single track. Had the same set of tires on for 2 years and only near the end of their life did I get a flat. When I was working as a bike mechanic, I never saw someone come in for a flat change with these and I sold a lot of them in the Boston area. We also sold a lot of Conti Gatorskins and I've changed plenty of those that were punctured. Both are great tires, but I'll always recommend these over the Contis.

Great Tire

Very easy to install on my Sirrus 2.0 rims. They ride very well and smooth. I personally could not tell any difference between these and a non puncture resistant high performance tire. Many reviews I read before I got them stated the Armadillos were more heavy and slowed you down but I could not tell the difference at all. And I have the extra peace of mind that comes from not having to worry about a flat all the time.

Armadillos are the best puncture

Armadillos are the best puncture resistant tire on the market. I have used the for many years. My local store stopped carrying them a few years ago and I tried one of the competing companies equivalent product the gatorskins from continental. Within six months I had gotten several flats on them where I have never gotten flats so quickly on a pair of armadillos.

In terms of punctures, these

In terms of punctures, these are the best tires on the market. I used to ride Vittoria Rubino Pro Endurance tires, but when those became almost impossible to get on a rim, I went looking for an easier option. A friend was going to be replacing her tires for a ride we were about to do, so I offered to swap them out myself. I couldn't believe how easy they were to get on a rim. I did both tires in less than 5 minutes total. When I got home, I ordered a set for me. I've now been riding Armadillos for over three years and over 30,000 miles and have had only 2 flats in that time. And what punctured the tires those two times, would have punctured anything else on the market. Their durability is also topnotch, with me getting over 5,000 miles on a set before I have to replace them. I've never been a fan of Specialized bicycles, but their Armadillo tires, if you get the 60 TPI tires, are like having flat insurance that you never really have to use.

Over 5000 miles and no flats

My wife and I just finished the Trans America Trail (4200 Miles) plus all the training miles in preparation. We both rode with the armadillos and had no flats in spite of the debris and sometimes poor road quailty . Two big thumbs up for their durability and the ease of handling all weather conditions we faced. I will ride these tires as long as they are available.

A fast commute or tough training tire stand out!

I have a mixed surface commute of 20 miles each way and have played with heavy bomber tires to training race tires and I keep coming back to the All Condition. I run a 28c at 80-90psi. I ride through the PacNW winter and they are great in the wet. While not a race tire they have a comfortable give, but I am riding a 40 spoke touring wheel! Glass and standard road debris are rendered powerless in delaying you. As they wear they do become susceptible to fine wire, but this is it's only achilles heel. Of course you do have to pay attention to the road they are not nuke proof. But if you have a lengthy commute or want a bomber trainer this is a fantastic tire.

The only tire I use, and plan on continuing to use.

I've been using the Specialized All Condition Armadillo for ever. When inflated to their maximum pressure, they are bullet proof. Years of use tell me what I can expect from them. I just installed the ""newer"" version of the All Condition Armadillo. This is the regular, not Elite tire, size 700 x 28c. The older version specified 125psi maximum pressure, which I always used. The newer version specifies 95psi maximum pressure. My first ride with the new tires at 95psi grabbed some glass which did penetrate the tread, armadillo, and tube. I did not think this would ever happen. My only thought is that maybe the higher pressure will further prevent this. I can not dislike this tire.

Fast Rolling with Great Traction

I use these tires on my flat bar road bike I use for commuting. Traction is excellent in all conditions. I was pleasantly surprised when this ""traction"" tire had such low rolling resistance. No wonder this is a best seller!
