## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you tell me how this tire has been holding up?**
A: These are excellent, quality tires. At 290 grams, they're very durable & long-lasting. They also hold air extremely well and don't mind rain.  Mine have 380 miles on them with no cuts or scrapes. Tread nicely broken in. The casing is strong yet supple. Road feedback & grip is excellent as well. Heavier than a racing tire (250gr) it is also more durable; great for club rides, long miles & training. In over 20 years of use, I've never had a Continental tubular fail, and they're hard to wear out. I don't remember ever puncturing one. I switched to Continental tubulars after relatively poor results from expensive tubs from the big Italian manufacturers. Veloflex is the finest Italian racing tire, and dependable, but expensive.

**Q: Is the valve core removable?**
A: Yes, the valve core is removable.

**Q: Will the used tires be hard to clean off old glue?**
A: You don't remove old glue, you just re-glue the tire to the rim.

**Q: Will the used tires be hard to clean off old glue**
A: You don't clean off old glue from tires; just re-glue the tire to the rim. But normally you don't remove the tire unless it's flatted of worn out, in which case you install a new tire.

*by D***Y on 29 August 2017*

Great tyre for price and easily fitted with tufo tape

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great delivery
*by M***X on 13 February 2019*

Just what I needed

### ⭐⭐ Photos are poor from only top angle and no colour listed
*by M***. on 19 November 2020*

The photos show only the top view of the tyre, twice, nothing of the sides which are beige, horrible looking on an all black carbon bike. I will have to return immediately. Black in photos but horrible tan sidewall when delivered.
