    All Condition Armadillo Elite

    Delivery Icon

    We deliver! Just say when and how.

    The All Condition Armadillo Elite is the most flat-resistant tire available. Impressively though, it has performance characteristics that far exceed many competitor's race tires. We've given it a tread pattern that offers excellent all-weather traction, and newly-sourced materials for the best puncture protection possible. In terms of ride quality, our GRIPTON® compound is surpassed by none. It provides low rolling resistance and the ultimate in dry and wet condition traction. Without hyperbole, it's the best flat-resistant, high-performance tire that we've ever made.

    Resilient and ride well

    I was touring in Spain with standard high quality tires and kept getting flats. In Granada I picked up a pair of Armadillos and have never looked back. I have subsequently toured repeatedly with these and the only flat I had was a nail in the tire. They also ride very well. Unless I'm doing a triathlon, these are the only tires I use.

    Very good tires; great anti-flat technology; Rear tire didn't last too long

    Bottom line: I would buy these tires again. Details: Rear tire lasted about 8 months/2,000 miles. I made it home before the rear tire went flat so I'm impressed by the anti-flat technology (I wasn't even aware that I had a flat until the next day when it was completely flat--not sure what caused it. A year/approx. 3,400 miles later, I'm still riding on the front tire. I ride mostly on cement or asphalt roads at a nearby reservoir--mostly smooth surfaces but with occasional thistles/other hazards. I expect to ride increasingly on gravel surfaces and will replace tires before doing that. These are superior to other tires I've owned.

    Bulletproof

    10’000km and only one puncture which was a big old rusty nail that would have punctured a car tyre. I ride on the horribly deteriorating Johannesburg roads and have hit many potholes without any consequence. These are simply the most bulletproof tyres you’ll ever fit.

    Never had a puncture after switching to this tire

    with well over 10,000 km on these tires I have yet to have a puncture. I am very impressed and on my second set. I won't ride in urban areas on anything else. Absolutely can recommend.

    doesn't resist upholstery staples

    With a claim of the most flat-resistant tire available, I would have expected more. Emphasis on "resistant" meaning you can still get a flat. It's not resistant to upholstery staples. I got a flat from where one went right into the tread.

    Yes!
