Which Tyres?

  • idly eyeing some of the gravel king SK colour tyres for my gravel riding... not sure if they will look crap on the bike though : /

  • looking for tubeless 26 x 2.10ish for gravel and not too knobbly, similar to to G-One allround I guess. Recommendations?

  • Paid £76 for them so would like £50 but hit me up with an offer.

  • Too late I guess but I've been running the cheap exposures and there's nothing wrong with them

  • Kenda small block

  • That’s good to hear. I’ll give them a go while awaiting the others arrival.

  • My thoughts, for ages, never committed

  • maxxis dth

    marathon supremes are 2.0 and came up quite small for me but could work.

  • thanks @Netakure and @Belagerent. Think GravelKings are also an option but seem to be rare as hen's teeth!

  • Fast-ish tyres around 27-30mm... (or faster than 37mm ContactSpeeds.

    Looking at Jack Browns from planets or the many plethora of tyres named Schwalbe Ones around 20-25 quid.

    Any winners or alternatives that I’ve been overlooking?

  • Challenge have some new 27mm tyres that are more road robust so they say😴

  • Paris roubaix, Strada bianca, g one speed

  • 4-season ELITE XP But not tubeless.

  • Schwalbe Ones are fast and really good but the new version it's mean to be a lower tier tire. Get the old ones if you can find them

  • .

  • Just a quick thanks for the G One suggestion. Took them out for a quick shakedown ride earlier (with new mudguards) and they felt great. I suspect I had the pressure a touch high at 50 psi, so will drop down to 40, but they roll well and grip was good. It’s so nice running bigger tyres on shit winter lanes.

  • Glad you like them, they're great tyres.

  • Ah they no longer making the Speeds in the top end format? Shame if not.

  • What will they have been replaced by?

  • Not clear. The G-One Speeds appear to be only available now in Addix spec. Time to stock up on old stock Microskin versions, I think.

  • I mean the One, used to be the equivalent of GP4000. Now I guess it's the Pro One clincher and the One it's a tier lower.
    What is going on with the S-One, then G-One speed is anybody's guess. I still have a pair of the original S a bit battered if someone's in need.

  • Has anyone got experience with Pirelli Cinturato tyres in the 35mm guise? I'd like to know if they come up big, true or small for size on a 20mm rim. I've got 2 sets of wheels that I swap between a bike (with mudguards) so am looking for a close match between the two for consistent mudguard line and ease of swap. The other set are some 32mm tyres which plump out to 34.5mm on wide carbon rims.

  • Has anybody tried these?

    I'm looking for something decent on-road and inadequate, therefore fun, on forest paths and singletrack

  • They don’t look like they’d be decent on a paved road. They look like an on/off road high-mileage tyre. But I guess it’s relative.

  • I had a huge lose-it n save-it moment today WTB Riddler tyres and (ironically) slippery tarmac.
