Which Tyres?

I've got a set of GK slicks i sincerely doubt I'll use. 700x35, colour edition, black sidewall and bluey green tread. Would need to find them if of interest, buried somewhere..

Sounds fun! Let me know if you find them and have a price in mind.

will do. in terms of other tyres I have been recommending conti contact urban to everyone. I think they're great!

I've got some 38 Ramparts going spare. Tan wall ones. Come up a bit small, about 36 if I remember correctly.

The old ones come up large but it is only one 🤣

Those could work as well! Let me know if you have a price in mind for the pair.

They have added other 2 flavours which seem to be small intermediate variations.

Can anyone recommend a good 650b x 47c road tyre that doesn't get punctured too easily? Preferably without reflective stripes.

I've been using WTB Horizons and they have been totally fine, yet to get a puncture and I've ridden them through the winter on some horrid roads.

Same experience, though I don’t feel super confident in their grip in the wet.

@kjlem you can even get it tan wall

Vittoria terreno zero

These Cinturatos are turning out to be an excellent suggestion in response to my original query:

What is the equivalent to a GP 4 Seasons that comes in a 38 (or 35 maybe) and works well as tubeless?

So cheers!

as god and @M4xime as my witness, i issue fatwa on gp5k for wet riding

I have a pair of gp5000 TL in 32 is looking. One has about 400km max on it, the other is brand new. Would need posted though.

Has anybody tried Kenda Karvs? https://winstanleysbikes.co.uk/kenda-karvs-tyre#
Look like they may work well for the grasstrack build hmmm

Looking for 26" suggestion akin to Panaracer Gravel Kings... not too knobbly, but happy off road, tan wall would be nice... not bothered about tubeless and light-ish would also be nice... they're going on the commuter

I think these have recently been discontinued but there's still stock out there:

Been running them a couple of years, mix of commuting and light off-road stuff, definitely no good for sfab.

Thinking of putting on some slicker tyres on my road bike. Currently running Schwalbe G Ones which, although marketed as fast rolling, I've always suspected are probably a little slower than a smoother tyre. What are the current recommended 28-30mm 700c tubeless ready road tyres at the moment?

.

Gp5000 & pirelli p zero are both good

Doesn't help that i had a nasty slam last week but do many people find 4 Season sketchy in anything other then dry weather? Wide 25's and could probably drop the pressure 10 psi but nowhere near as confidence inspiring as my 28c Corsa/Pasela combo but i don't want gum walls.

Also, looking at keeping 35's year round on one my fixed gears and was wandering if my 35c GK SK's are a bit draggy compared to the non nobbly version? I might occasionally ride on something loose but this is more about comfort and grip.

4 Seasons are good tyres considering their age, but they are nearly a 10 year old design. Much better winter tyres out there now.

schwalbe g one speed ?
i have a friend perma-commuting on these

Came across what might be a good deal on 35 mm Contact Urbans on eBay -

The item title says two tyres, which if accurate is about half RRP. But the photo is of the wrong tyre. So it's a bit of a gamble I guess. PayPal/eBay would find in your favour I expect, if anything amiss (take screenshots). Only reason I'm not going for it is I'm in search of the 32 mm size.
