The Roubaix Armadillo Elite is an endurance road tire that's well suited for smooth and rough roads alike. That's because it's fast like any competitive road tire, only it features a unique casing with bead-to-bead protection for added puncture protection. The 25mm casing smooths your ride and keeps you fresh, while the 23mm tread handles quickly. It features a slick center tread for low rolling resistance and shoulder sipes for increased surface adaption and grip. Roll with confidence.

  • Bead: Foldable

  • Compound: GRIPTON®

  • Flat Protection: Armadillo Elite

  • 700 x 23mm/25mm, psi 115-125, approximate weight 310g

Protection You Wont Be Embarrassed to Buy

5000 miles out of these w/ one front-back rotation. Only got one flat from a sharktooth rock. I actually ran over staples that got stuck in the tire but didnt puncture it, these things are tough. A great solution if you're riding on gritty Austin roads. Though, I feel like these are the fat kid of road tires.

5* I will buy again

Nine months ago I purchased a used Roubaix Sport that was wearing Armadillo All-weather tires, the age and mileage of which were unknown. The tread looked okay but there appeared to be some age-related dry rot, cracking. I put over 2,000 miles on those tires before hitting something with the rear and removing approx an 1/8"" square chunk of tread. The damaged rear tire got me home just fine with no pressure loss. However, I decided to replace it and chose the Armadillo Elite. I've put 330 miles on the new tire and am very happy with it. Smoother than the All-weather and has held up to my constant ""hitting trash"" in the road. I will replace the front old all-weather Armadillo with this elite in the near future.

durable

These tires provide a smooth ride on rough roads. They are also made with superior materials, as I have had to ride many miles on them AFTER the rubber has worn through.

This is the only tire I would consider for my bike.

I absolutely love these tires and would not change a thing about them. They are comfortable and compliant as I roll over the sometimes choppy tarmac here in south-central Pennsylvania. The tread is tough as nails and the only reason I had to replace my previous set was that I had worn the tread flat over the past 18-months.

Importance of Tires

The most important components on your bike, whether a beater or an expensive, modern machine, and everything in between, are your tires. An excellent tire inspires confidence in handling, responds quickly and confidently to input, holds a tight, high speed corner with a sure grip, and rolls fast with the spin. All of the above, with puncture protection that works, means more time with the wind in your face, rather than dealing with regular flats. This is the best tire I've ridden for security and excellent handling, and I believe a great choice for all those high mileage, recreational riders.

Good tires

On my second pair, these tires never seem to flat! Roll real nice too. Easy to install.

These are my go-to tires

I have been using these tires exclusively for nine years. Never had a puncture flat in seven years riding NE Connecticut roads, or the past two years in SE Georgia roads. I usually change them when the smooth center belt width doubles, and then I use them on my trainer until the blow out. :)

Edits to the first review I sent

Summertime Saturday regional group rides are long and hot in Northeast Arkansas. And that includes all kinds of road grit and trash, rough shoulders, road kill, mean dogs, and all kinds of different rural asphalt and concrete road and highway textures! Every year at this time, my ride gets a new pair of these Armadillo Elites (from Gearhead Cycle House in Jonesboro). It's a small price to pay for the reliability and peace of mind! I promise your ""no flat"" odds are greatly improved with a set of these .... Really !

No Flats

Was getting puncture flats almost everyday for a few weeks. Trails and roads haven't been in the best shape early in the year. They still aren't but I haven't gotten any flats. They are slower than my Grand Prixs.
