  • Yeah she'll be right mate, just pump it up to 100psi overnight then deflate to your desired pressure and ride. The tyre will stretch from the overinflation and from general riding. I found the GKs tricky to mount the first time but now they go on with just my thumbs.

    Alternatively you could look at some of the WTB tyres in 30c or 32c

  • This sounds promising, are you running TLC ones out of interest?

    Have seen the WTB ones but they only come in tubeless variant which has out me off a bit.

  • Yes I'm running TLC tyres with tubes, no problems so far. Apparently it's terrible for rolling resistance but I'm running 35c tyres at 30psi so rolling resistance is not my top priority.

    I've also got the WTB Expanse tyres in 32c which I run with tubes. Easy tyres to fit and they're no heavier than similar tyres that are tubed only.
