Great all around tread pattern

Our trails go from packed gravel, to packed decomposed stone, and to asphalt, these tires handle all if these substrates well. Running them on a Trek road bike and an ICE Vortex recumbent.

Thank you for your feedback.

Congratulations for arriving at this product, you've done your research.

Look em up on bike rolling resistance, these tires are pretty great. Especially if you're willing to trade a little weight for dependability.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Tire

Put on my wife's disk brake road bike as she has a problem with rear flats. She said it rides great and nice that it is very flat resistant!

Thank you for your feedback.

Long lasting tire, great customer service

I bike on a 35 year old hybrid bike up and down Bluffs for 2 hours daily without fear of getting a flat. Priceless!

Decent Road tire

I've put about 300 miles on mine, mostly commuting. One gravel ride. I got 700x35. No flats, haven't had to ride them in the rain yet.

Thank you for your feedback.

Excellent Tire

I have only had it mounted for a little over a week, too early to tell if it will prevent the flats I was getting with my old tire. I am impressed with the quality of construction of the Schwalbe tire. One thing I can say is that I had no problems whatsoever in mounting it on the rim. It went on quite easily.

Thank you for your feedback.

Easy to Mount!

I've read a lot of reviews about how hard this tire is to mount. I've had the exact opposite experience. The first tire was easy, and the second one mounted with out the use of a single tool!

Can't speak for the rest, as I just mounted these.

Thank you for your feedback.

Amazing city tires!

No problems yet. Haven't done a lot of riding on them yet, but seem like they will be great for when I'm commuting more.

Good durable wet weather tire.

I bought this tire for use on my road bike during the wet season in Seattle. Very impressed with the quality of the tire and the performance on wet roads. They are heavier than normal tires , but for me it's a good trade-off for the performance.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great protection against goatheads.

Clunky heavy tire, but did the job against New Mexico goatheads. Not exactly a supple casing, so hard to mount.

Thank you for your feedback.

A perfect commuter tire.

A perfect commuter tire. A little pricey, but as they say, you get what you pay for! and this is well worth it. I haven't had a flat in months.

700 x 38 tires are a super smooth ride.

Smoother ride

I bought a pair of 32 mms on sale and couldn't be happier. They're riding so much smoother, and I feel much more comfortable during my commute. I will definitely buy again in the future.

Not running true

I mounted two of these on my commuter . Both tires had an eighth on an inch run out. I put the old tires back on and will return them. I think they're junk!

Hard

I'm sure these are top quality if my one and only concern was not getting a flat. Air them up over 80psi it's kind of like riding on wooden wheels.
