SchwalbeAL GROUNDER 29 Inch Tire(Return to Product Page)

I wanted some street tires for my mountain bike so as to save wear & tear on my knobby tires, as well as for a smoother ride while riding streets. The Schwalbe AL Grounders work great for me. The low profile tread and width (2.35") make for a good, stable ride for paved street, patchwork pavement, dirt and gravel. Very good all around tire. I did not do a lot of shopping around, mostly looking for relatively low, reasonable shipping pricing to Hawai'i, which Bike Tires Direct provides. But I believe their price on the tires are less expensive/average.
