Larger tubeless

mattsccm

Sorry but the other thread is just way to big and varied.
I plan to go tubeless with medium size tyres. The obvious candidates are either the Schwalbe Pro One is 28mm or the Hutchinson Sector. Both seem to have their fans so lets have some opinions.
Actually the Schwalbe S One looks even better as its bigger but those knobs look a bit likely to wear fairly rapidly. I assume that they haven't been about long enough for many people to put serious mileage on them but any opinions?

I am using the Schwalbe Pro One. Love them.

I am going to be getting the S one when it is in stock. I can't wait to try the 30mm.

How about wear and tear. Just had a Challenge Strada Bianca fall apart, not wear, and was told by the importer that 1000 miles was good going for them. The S pro looks nice if those knobs wear reasonably well.

I am at 1800 miles on some S-Ones on Stans ZTR Grails. Hardly any wear nice tyre. Cannot convince myself that they are not slowing me down though they look mahoosive compared to the Ones 23mm on my Cannondale. Almost like a semi slick MB tyre..

They hold air very well, and have not cut up. I would have had to bin a normal One tubeless by now. I said on the other thread the have gone the wrong direction with the new Ones by making them lighter. They need an all season in 25mm with better cut & puncture resistance in the range as well as the weight weenie ones. By making the whole range as light as possible there isn't much choice for a reliable decent rolling tubeless in 25mm

Hutchinson Fusion 5's are around in some stores, they do an all season not sure what width

Keep it coming. If only there was a 40 mm tubeless .

G-one 38c will be pretty much 40c

My experiences to date are very positive with Schwalbe.

My One's were very good but I killed one on a massive piece of glass. There we are, new tyre whatever the case.

My G-One are superb. Used them on road, off road, for Battle on the Beach. About 1k miles so far and very little wear.

Schwalbe have just sent me the X-One for review and, shortly, when some stock comes in, the S-One as well.

No probs here so far with the Hutchy Sectors,only been on for a few weeks so far though.

I'm running S Ones - not done that many miles but they're good and roll well.

Just got some new digital calipers. Interesting things.

Schwalbe One 25c on 17c internal Fulcrum LG come out at 26.8mm

Schwalbe G-One 35c on Pro Lite Revo come out at almost 38mm

What do you need them for? People are getting silly with big tyres... I have tried a pair of 38, but didn't really love them... 32 is as big as I want to go

G ones too knobbly. I just like big slicks. My Stradas were great and reassuring including the odd bit of gravel. Nice when I go away with no firm plans in my head.

Try the sector... I have them on and they seem to do crazy mileage. Not as supple as the Schwalbe ONE, but comes quite big.. I'd say the 28 is closer to a 30 mm

I have 35mm G-Ones on my Croix De Fer (38mm on Pacenti SL25). I would use S-Ones if i only rode it on road, but I take it off-road too. 35mm seems a good compromise for mixed use.

People are different people

If you want to go > 35 and into 40 mm territory, then you have to look at 29er rims... things like Stans Flow or Crest might give you a good tyre profile. A 38 on a 17-19 internal width rim is the same as a 28 on an old 13-14 mm rim if my maths are not wrong... a big bulb

bendertherobot

Well, 35's seems pretty good on the Revo. Ditto the Hyper Voyager 37c. Those are highly rated on bicyclerollingresistace as well. I agree I wouldn't put them on a 14c mind. That would be lunacy!

mattsccm

Using Pacenti CL 25s. 30mm Strada Bianca's come up at 32mm

In fear of sounding like a knob, but has anyone else found they catch the side winds?!?
