A glowing report on Schwalbe all round tle.
I have just retired the rear,
700x35,
rider 70kg,
35 psi
no visitations.
The way it wears out is surprising,
the 2 central knobs just vanish,
the wear then slows wayyy down.
The little knobs offer incredible traction even on snow,
and icy roads.
There are 14 knobs along the paper in the picture ,
when the 4 central ones are gone,
traction then drops sharply.
Cuts are rare ,
I have pictured the worst.
I could use them on the road a little more.
