The Vredestein Fiammante is an extremely durable training tire, made for high mileage and long rides. It uses Vredestein's dual-compound rubber with a harder center tread for durability and low rolling resistance and softer sides for cornering grip. To keep the weight down, it's equipped with a folding bead. The Fiammante also sports a composite breaker down the center of the tread for extra flat protection, too.
