Which Tyres?

The 25mm Corsa G on my 17mm internal came out as 26mm.

23mm for you should be a shy of 25mm, need to confirm thought.

That's what's I suspect too, would like confirmation though. Otherwise I'll just get another set of veloflex masters and pocket the savings.

2500km of mistreating - impressed

They do look like they've held up well. Are they the Corsa G+ tubeless ready (is it Corsa G+ Speed?) or the other ones?

Corsa G+ 25c

On a related note, need some tubulars for a week long trip to Italy. Last year in Pyrenees I ran the G+ clinchers with latex innertubes and was blown away. This year upgraded to tubs.

Cheapest I've found.

Best choice tire for rolling around Suffolk lanes on a Pompino? Year round. Was wondering about 28mm Gravelking or might just go GP4K as they seem to be able to put up with anything touches wood

Anyone tried getting a 700x20C onto the new wave of wide rims?

Why tho

Yep. 20mm sits nicely on up to a 24mm rim. Wider than that and you might want to go 23mm.

GP4 Seasons?

24mm external I take it you're talking about?

Yep

How much weight are you saving over one of your real tyres? I know it's only to get you to the next bike shop, but I really wouldn't fancy having to take a loaded bike even 50k over shitty surfaces on a 20mm...

I've got some old race tyres in 23mm that are ~230g I think. Next up more like 250g

Taking my Corsa G+ 25c on touring in Finland next week - will report back.

600km (≈100km gravel), 75 psi and latex tubes. Total vessel weight 97kg. 1 puncture en total.

I bagged some 35mm folding Kojaks from CR in August last year for £16.99 a piece. Anyone seen a similar offer anywhere lately?

Starbike has em for £19.97.

Pre-stretch new tyres on another rim; my LB tubeless compatible were absolute cuntz with a brand new Corsa G+ tyre but fine after I mounted it on another rim.

I can't work that site out. Is that for 700x35c folding, yeah?

Any folding, 35mm commuter tyre alternative recommendations to Kojaks?

Vittoria Voyager Hypers are highly regarded on here and can often be found for cheap.

Ordered some 25mm Rubino Pro G+ for the commuter last night, for £21 each it seemed like an easy choice.

What are the hive mind approved cheapish 26 inch gravel light off road tire?

Currently looking at Conti Double Fighter III, Race King but could also just keep the DTH's on and have a couple more pastis this summer in the south of France.
