Veloflex Vlaanderen Tubular 700 X 27C: Ride Quality on the Moots Vamoots RSL
Readers know that I’m a huge fan of Veloflex tubular tires; I’ve ridden probably 60K miles on them in the past 8 years, going through at least 60 tires (I’ve lost count), and I know how each model performs (Record, Sprinter, Criterium, Roubaix, and now Vlaanderen). So I was intrigued by the introduction of the new 700 X 27C Veloflex Vlaanderen. I requested some review samples, and Veloflex obliged.
First off, this is a beautifully made tire. All three samples were nearly flawless in symmetry, clean in design. The FMB Boyaux Paris Roubaix Pro feels almost crude by comparison and the Vlaanderen far better handling and ride feel.
My review of the Veloflex Vlaanderen now includes extensive ride notes.
