Hello I have seen some Schwalbe tyres on offer on possibly this website? They were £70ish and there on offer now for £30 something. I just want to know if anyone else has seen them? And are they any good or is there better tyres u can recommend I'm currently using panaracer type a I like them but fancy some new tyres does any one know how strong the Schwalbe tyres are against punctures?
Cheers
Kieran

    Schwalbe make domes of the most puncture resistant tyres you can get but not all their tyres are. Which model was it in particular?
    Mud - Genesis Vapour CCX
    Race - Fuji Norcom Straight
    Sun - Cervelo R3
    Winter / Commute - Dolan ADX

    I'm not aware of any Schwalbe tyres costing £70! Maybe it's not as good deal as it sounds..

    I've really gone off Ultremos in the last year. Probably just bad luck but after two years of using them and loving them I've had a bad run more recently. Went over to Pro Race 4s and really like them.
