This sounds similar to the Continental Gatorskin<\/a> or Grand Prix 4 Season<\/a>. But unlike these winter road bike tyres<\/a>, the RideArmor is available tubeless<\/a> and as a clincher.\u00a0<\/p> Vittoria offers the RideArmor in seven sizes, ranging from 700x26c to 700x38c. Each costs \u00a359.99 \/ $79.99 \/ \u20ac59.95.\u00a0<\/p> The RideArmor\u2019s puncture resistance comes from a bead-to-bead puncture protection belt, reinforced bead shield layers and the ArmorSkin sidewall, according to Vittoria.\u00a0<\/p> The brand says the ArmorSkin sidewall is made from a polyamide fabric to protect against cuts and abrasions on any road surface, no matter the weather.\u00a0<\/p> Toughness comes at the cost of weight, with the RideArmor claimed to weigh 375g in a 700x28c size.\u00a0<\/p> The RideArmor uses the Graphene Silca compound first introduced in Vittoria\u2019s performance road tyres, such as the Corsa Pro<\/a> and Corsa N.Ext<\/a>.<\/p> Vittoria says the rubber compound makes the RideArmor durable, comfortable and grippy in the dry and wet.\u00a0<\/p> Thicker treads in the 100 TPI nylon casing are claimed to blend reliable puncture resistance with speed for training and even racing.\u00a0<\/p> Vittoria says the RideArmor has a slick tread to lower rolling resistance, without supplying any data on the tyre\u2019s efficiency.\u00a0<\/p> Given the RideArmor\u2019s all-season characteristics, it\u2019s safe to assume it won\u2019t be among the fastest road bike tyres<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p> Vittoria says the 700x38c option is suitable for gravel bikes<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p> All sizes wider than 28mm are compatible with hookless rims<\/a>, according to the brand.\u00a0<\/p>ArmorSkin sidewall<\/h2>
