[RBW] Re: Rubena Flash tires from RBW
Thanks for the info, everyone. They seem like decent tires. so I will just keep and ride them. I've got other spares around to put on if I "tire" of them. :-) On Tuesday, May 26, 2015 at 7:22:47 AM UTC-5, Forrest wrote: > > Is anyone familiar with Rubena tires, especially the Flash model?

I started using Flash tires about three years ago and have been happy with them. Average 40 to 60 miles a week commuting on these and have had one flat in the last year. They roll fine and are considerably more affordable than the Schwalbe Marathons. I'm using 26 x 1.5's but may go to a 1.75 next time around.

[RBW] Re: Rubena Flash tires from RBW
Rubena is a Czech tire manufacturer, as as far as I know, the only all-European tire production company. While Schwalbe, Continental, etc. are "European" tire companies, much of their production is done in Asia and other places, while every Rubena tire is made in the Czech Republic. They've been making a push into the North American market in the past few years, and Cyclone here in Portland distributes them. The "Flash" is, for want of a better term, their Marathon equivalent. Haven't had a pair, but know others who have and have had no complaints. I've owned a few of their "City Hoppers", which are a Big Apple equivalent, and I've liked them. yours, Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

In the past Riv, has warned that there may be a tire substitution if the tires on one's invoice are out of stock at the time bike is built up and ready. If you call them and ask, I'm sure they will explain what happened.
