Reviews over the

Vredestein Fortezza Senso Xtreme Weather

Noticeably more grip on wet surfaces, super nice for commuting in winter!

Pros & Cons

Have cycled 10,000 kilometres with these tyres without a single puncture

Pros & Cons

The tyre is nice and smooth, making it easy to put on. Good grip and steers tightly.

Pros & Cons

Used about 1300 km during fall and winter. In terms of grip, tread wear and rolling resistance a top tire. However, I am a little disappointed in the durability of the compounds. I have read before that people were troubled that the three different compounds in the tire do not stay together well. I can confirm that. Tips to avoid that is to deflate the tires between rides. Micro cracks between tread and and sidewall and after only one season already signs of drying out. Maybe this is because I just left them at 5-6 bar. However, I think that is something a tire should be able to withstand.

Pros & Cons

After a few wet outings, the handling was excellent and pleasant in the dry. No problems with mounting and I'm not used to mechanics. I recommend the tire.

I've used the Extreme Weather tyres for a number of years. I've found they wear well, ride comfortably and pretty quick whilst giving very good grip in wet and cold conditions down to 0deg. To my mind these are better than Continental 4 season as the compound seems softer hence better grip and comfort. (albeit the Continentals do wear a little better)

Pros & Cons

Great tires for winter driving. You can handle the turns in the wet with confidence!

Pros & Cons

Lives up to expectations

Tires mounted for weekend trip to Vosges. Barren wet conditions there. Xtreme wheather tires tested well right away. Test passed with flying colors.

Pros & Cons

Previous tyre was a Continental Grand Prix 4-Season Folding Tyre 28" DuraSkin Black Edition but it dries out very quickly and tears all around. And that's a shame because they ride uniquely nice but pricey. I hope these Vredestein tyres are better successors that last longer than six months.

Pros & Cons

This tyre meets my expectations, feels solid and rolls well. I use it for cycle touring.

They roll like crazy

I have covered a few kilometres but the first feeling is that these tyres have good grip in wet and muddy conditions. Ideal for the winter season. It is easy to fit on the rim and the width of the tyre corresponds to reality.

Pros & Cons

2nd set driven over 10,000 km with first set. This over asphalt and hard pack gravel roads in all weather conditions. And never punctured, so very reliable.

Pros & Cons

Arrived as expected

Pros & Cons

Compared to my Panaracer, the mantle is very stable and fast. You don't lose control on wet surfaces and it doesn't tip over in corners.

Pros & Cons

is a TOP tyre runs on 7.5 BAR FOR AND BACK . front I do about 10000 km rear about 8000 km . I hardly ever have a puncture. I have had Vredestein for -+ 10 years now, with a lot of pleasure. and the price is well worth it at €32.95 a piece.

Pros & Cons

I have had Vredestein racing tyres for about 15 years now! I have also been riding this tyre for 4 years with great pleasure! Rolls perfectly at 7.5 Bar front and rear and easily reaches 7500 A 8000 km on the rear tyre and +- 9000 km on the front. so value for money! Also mounting and dismounting goes smoothly and very reliable also on gravel!

Pros & Cons

Tyre meets my expectations optimally.

Pros & Cons

Ingenious ! Super grip I drive the 25er version and have to say better than Conti!

these tyres ride very and with a subtle feel, they grip well on wet roads at low temperature and feel assuring. Havent ridden them only for 500 miles so far but seem to hold up well and no visible sign of wear yet. Haven't had a puncture yet, despite riding on gravel and whin tracks with lost of leaf litter and branches from brambles and hedge cutting around. Were fairly easy to put on when new and seem to have become a bit more flexible since then, as expected, which should make it easier to put on in case of a puncture

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Very good grip in the wet and rolls very well.

Pros & Cons

I have used these for a few years and they have offered good puncture resistance and good grip. Better than Conti 4 Seasons in my opinion.

Pros & Cons

V happy with these. Avoiding winter punctures on the Chilterns has been a problem - but so far no problems since using these. Long may it last.

Pros & Cons

Been running these day in day out for a few years. Firstly the wet weather grip is excellent - this is the main factor for choosing them for me. In terms of puncture protection, their not super resilient but then they remain light. I'd say they were a fraction more resilient than the Conti gp4000s I also use, but their still susceptible to thorns, glass etc.

Pros & Cons

Having bought a pair of these for my wife's bike, I had to get some for my Giant TCR2. Excellent value and roadholding.

Pros & Cons

Only been using these a couple of weeks and noticed a huge difference in these colder months, superb grip on the greasy roads and no loss of speed.

Pros & Cons

I have been using these for about a year now after finding my Conti 4 seasons puncturing too often. They have proved to be very tough and hard wearing. Im not really worried about how fast they roll, but more interested in reliability. The grip has not let me down and I ride in all weathers.
