• If you want gumwalls, a durable-ish road tyre and intend to run them at high pressures perhaps you'd be better with Paselas and tubes.

  • My Veloflex Corsa EVO TLR's are working great now. One of them just needed a tiny bit more sealant then riding as everyone said.

    That's actually why I came to this thread just now, to say I did a century on them today and I think they're super. They definitely have all of the wonderful suppleness of a 350tpi Italian tyre over shitty road surfaces, they seem fast and the tread feels very grippy and gummy.

    I ran them at 80psi today (I've got 25mms), which is arguably too much for a 62kg weakling like me, but I never felt they were too hard.

    I've not really pushed them that hard in corners generally so far, and I've only done about 250 miles on them so I can't say anything about puncture protection or durability yet, but all seems very promising.

  • Good to hear, Pete. I’m gonna order some when my Corsa’s are ready for the bin.

  • Quite interested in your experience of those. I could be tempted.

    I’ve been happy with Veloflex Masters with latex tubes on wide rims. They are summer/dry/event tyres though.

    Ironically the only major downside is replacing a tube. Negotiating the tight af bead and tubeless-ready rims is difficult at home and a nightmare by the side of the road :)

  • 62kg

    Fuck you

  • Recommended PSI starting point for 25c tyres is your weight in kg + 5. I will do the math for you; 67 PSI is more than enough.

    For 28c recommended PSI should be your weight in kilos.
