PirelliCinturato Gravel M 650b Tire(Return to Product Page)

This tire was difficult to mount to the rim the first time. I was dreading going back to remount it as a tubeless setup but it must have stretched a touch and was much easier. Was able to get the bead over rim with just hand pressure the 2nd time rather than needing a tire lever. They set up tubeless easy and are holding pressure really well.

The tires are great on gravel and trails. You know you got a big knobby tire when your on the road but it doesn't seem like the resistance is excessive. I would buy these again for sure.

I�ve found this to be a great mixed terrain tire that performs well in a varied conditions and terrain. I highly recommend them!

Pros:

Fast on the road

Durable, flat resistant

Great in mud

Cons:

Heavy

I�m using this on my 56cm Open Wide. I am 5�11� 165lbs and run 29/27psi. So far zero flats. I like this tire because I can keep up with the 700c riders on the flats yet have better traction in the soft stuff. I�ll go back to 700x45 in the dry seasons but for now this is my go to winter tire.

Purchased as 650x50. Smooth on the road and happy at speed on rough gravel. Have used it on gravel, washboard roads and mountain bike single track - best all around tire I have.

I think this is near the max tire volume I can fit in my 3T Exploro and I couldn't be happier with the tire itself. I was looking to max out volume and this one seemed to fit the bill. They feel very fast on pavement and have good traction off-road. They set up easily (tubeless with inserts.) I'll likely ride these on my 650b wheels for as long as I ride this bike.
