I had a set of Rubinos Pro Slicks lying around from when I bought a wheelset tat had them on.
I needed some new tyres so thought if give them a go.
I loved them for the first week or so, then I got a puncture, and another and another.
I then skidde through the rear in just over 3 weeks (It takes me around 3 months to skid trough an armadillo)
Then one night I set out with the tyre only at about 90 PSI, it was raining and when I took the first corner it rolled off and threw me to the ground.
