Turbo Trainer Tyre 700x25

I've tried brute force, tyre levers, soapy water and left it to warm up on a radiator. Nothing has worked. I can't even get one side on all the way round. I have measured my wheel and it is the correct size. I'll be taking it back.

Never used dedicated trainer tyres before as i have always just bought cheap tyres, saw this at a great price and had to have it. Easy to fit, very quite, doesn’t melt or break up and so glad I had bought it.

Replaced my standard smoothish road tyre with this one, and what a reduction in noise! I was expecting a small improvement, given the road tyre was pretty smooth to start with, but I am astonished at how much quieter this turbo specific one is. Very pleased indeed, as I don't now need to be so conscious of disturbing the neighbours. Many reviews complain about the difficulty in fitting the tyre. I didn't have any problems, although this tyre feels far more floppy than when initially trying to get it onto the rim. Talcum powder, or the equivalent, always helps if you're struggling with poor quality tyre levers. Excellent value tyre, and comes folded.

This tyre is inexpensive compared with other trainer tyres, but has failed with blistering after just a few hundred km on the trainer. I see from other reviews that this is a common problem. I'll be returning it for a refund when next I swing by a store.

Turbo tyres are difficult to source at the moment so I was delighted to find these in stock and available to deliver online. I have only been using a trainer for a month and it degraded my normal road tyre very quickly and was extremely noisy. I cannot quite believe how much quieter and smoother the proper trainer tyre is (family also delighted at less noise!). I had no issues getting it on the rim, I didn't even need to use levers - it went on by hand (but I admit the rims on my training bike are quite 'small'). Really glad I bought it, time will tell if it lasts.

I have had 3 punctures in 1 week with this tyre. No idea why. This is the first time using a trainer tyre this has happened

Free fitting too so don’t need to hurt my little pinkies getting it on : )

The lip of the sidewall is so thick on this tyre - it is very, very, very hard to mount. I have put thousands of tyres on biks and this is the single most difficult I have ever dealt with - it's cheap but a for the amount of inner tubes you lose trying to get it on it's a false economy.

Does the job. Is quieter and creates no tyre burn. Just about fits a cyclocross rim. Much better priced than elsewhere.

I bought two of these to avoid running gravel tyres on rollers. Getting them on the wheels was a bit of a thumb-torture exercise (I could have followed advice and warmed them up on a radiator first, but I'm too stubborn for that). They look a bit narrow for my 20mm wide rims, but since I don't have to worry about cornering with these tyres, it's just fine. Pumped them up to 6.5 bar and had a go on the rollers. I can now train in the living room without disturbing anyone, it's so silent. The squeaking of the rollers' bearings is louder than the tyres. I'm happy.

Makes a great difference to the noise level, and wearing well

Easy to install, noise down to zero on your trainer.
