Smooooooth

I'm a huge Schwalbe fan and I find this latest tire to be their smoothest one so far. The difference between these and the last iteration is pretty noticeable. I will say that all Pro-level tires by Schwalbe are prone to cuts, but it's nothing a little Shoe-Goo can't overcome.

Full disclosure, I had a bad run with 4 of these, notched it up to bad QC and early adopter-itis. BTD was great about helping me out with that, so kudos to them.

Thank you for your feedback.

My favorite tires and favorite store

I love the Schwalbe Pro One road bike tires. I always get 1000s of miles on them, they are easy to install, and so far I have never had a flat on a ride thanks to the sealant I put in. Highly recommended! Plus, I have always had excellent customer service from Bike Tires Direct for all of my various orders. Happy customer.

Thank you for your feedback.

Smooth ride, short life

Soft supple tires, nice ride quality, good traction. However, after 3 sets I have switched to another brand as I found they last on average 1200 miles and tend to easily puncture or cut.

Wish I could say otherwise, they are fastsmooth riding using the online Silca tire pressure calculator.

Thank you for your feedback.

This is the One

I have used the Pro ONE and the ONE. The Pro definitely seats better. I had some trouble with the ONE wanting to stay in the rim channel. I think you also get a more supple ride. Plus the Pro looks better than the ONE, and we all know if you look good you ride good. On my endurance bike I set up with a 30 mm in front and 28 mm in back.

Thank you for your feedback.

Serious doubts

I bought a pair of these to replace a pair of worn Mavic Yksion Pro UST that came with the Mavic Cosmic Pro Carbon SL UST (bought from biketiresdirect.com).

First, let me say that the service from biketiresdirect has always been excellent, this negative review is limited to the tires.

I now have about 500 miles on these, and after having had to re-inflate them very frequently (as in before every ride, even in the space of 24hrs) I decided to look at one of them in particular (happens to be the rear one) that was basically turning flat overnight.

Using soapy water, I discovered that there are multiple tiny holes continuously bubbling on the side wall. Not near the rim, not close to the road-contact surface, but in the middle of the side wall. All line-up along a (great) circle.

I contacted b.t.d.com to ask for their opinion. They made suggestions and displayed their savvy in customer handling. But being an engineer, I convinced myself that this is a manufacturing problem. I submitted a warranty claim on the Schwalbe site - and I am now waiting for some kind of answer.

But the real problem started when I felt I could not trust these tires (at least the rear one) for a long ride. I tried to take it off - and was not able to do it - using normal technique and tools. And that is where I draw the line.

Perhaps I am not doing it right, have the wrong tools (after all there years of riding?). But the idea to ride for 50 miles and get stranded because I cannot fix a flat is a no-go.

Perhaps this last problem is an incompatibility between these wheels and these tires - don't know.

But I am looking elsewhere...

Thank you for your feedback.

34s are super comfy!

Love how easily these mount and fill for tubeless tires. I own a e- Creo which can accommodate 42s on Roval C38s for gravel. These are super sticky, roll sweet, and have no rolling resistance that I can feel. I can run at lower PSI to eat up the bumps along with my Future Shock. Love'em. PS I hate trying to mount Conti 5000s... these are SO much easier.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good to a point '.

I've been riding Schwalbe Pro One tubeless for years biking recreationally about 3000 miles per year. Once you get a puncture, you need to think about replacing it. I replace at least two tires per year, which seems a little excessive. But I still ride tubeless, because plugging on the fly when needed is so much easier than changing an inner tube. And I like the ride of a tubeless. Once ya plug, though, its time for a new tire'..

Thank you for your feedback.

These are great all-around tires

I have been running these tires set up tubeless on my gravel winter trainer bike for a couple months now and have about 400 miles on them. Using the 30mm width, running 70-80 psi. No flats yet. They feel great on the road, stick well in the turns and perform great in the rain. My previous tubless road tires (Hutchinson) were very slick in the rain and I went down a few times. Not with these Schwalbe Pro ONEs, they stick very well in the wet and inspire confidence. The only downside is they are a bit spendy.

Thank you for your feedback.

Schwalbe Tubeless

I keep coming back to schwalbe after using the continental tubeless. I did not feel the continental tires had the longevity that the schwalbe tires have. Both great tires bit I think the schwalbe are easier to git and last longer.

Disappointing!

After reading some reviews about how wonderful the new Schwalbe TLE tire is, I purchased a couple to try. I got them on my Enve 3.4 rims easily enough (but still not easy) but getting them to seal seemed impossible! These new 2020 tires have been advertised to seat by just using a regular pump-I couldn't get it done with numerous blasts from a Topeak Joe Blow mode pumpl! So I decided to go to the C brand tubeless tire since I'd had success with them on 2 other occasions and it sealed on the first try even without sealant added. Schwalbe has some work to do!

Thank you for your feedback.

Easily the easiest tubeless tire I have ever mounted

I received two of these tires in the mail from Bike Tires Direct while on my lunch break at home. Always one to enjoy a challenge, I decided to mount one before heading back to work. I had already prepared the Roval CLX 40 rims with Stan's rim tape and Giant tubeless stems the night before. The wheels were clean. The tire took less than a minutes to put on the rims with my Crank Brothers tire tool. Without using my sealant and a regular floor pump, the tires pumped up completely with minimal effort. It has never been this smooth on my other five bike running tubeless. So I decided to mount the second to see if this was a fluke. Same story. Less than 5 minutes to mount two tires is great. The sealant will go in tonight. I am a long time user of the original Schwalbe Pro One tubeless on my older bike and they work great. At 200 pounds the balance between pinch flats (with tubes) and underover inflating is a challenge for a comfortable ride. Schwalbe has served me well in the past. Never noticed the puncture on my last 100K ride. I will update after I get a few hundred miles on the less than optimal roads where I live.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best Tubeless Tire

I have been riding tubeless road for 5 years now, and tried a lot of different tires. These fit, wear and hold air the best of any. Very consistent in sizing as well.

Thank you for your feedback.

Favorite Tubeless Tire

The Schwalbe pro one tires are my go to for tubeless tires. They're easy to seat, last a long time and I've never felt nervous through a corner. I have 4000miles on my current pair and I expect to get another 1000 out of them judging by the wear indicator.

Thank you for your feedback.

Holy hell these were easy to install

Just got these tires from BTD and damn do they live up their their TLE (tubeless easy) name! I only needed one lever to get the tires on, used a floor pump and bam they filled right up. I didn't even pull the valve cores to add sealant - I'm going to leave them overnight and see how they do. I've never experienced this easy of a tubeless install. Can't wait to ride them!

Thank you for your feedback.

Great, so far.

First time using road tubeless tires. Installing them was very easy. Noticeable difference from using tubed tires. I have been running them just below 70 psi. Very supple ride. I did have a puncture in one ride, but I pumped the tire up and it sealed pretty quickly.

Thank you for your feedback.

This is my first Schwalbe tire. So far very pleased with the flat protection. I run them tubeless and they were very easy to mount on my Spinergy wheels.

Don't seat on my multiple sets of wheels.

Big fan of Schwalbe tires, but I could not get the bead to seat on the two I purchased. Tried them on my carbon and a set of aluminum just to be certain it wasn't my wheel and ended up with the same result. Attempted to ride with them hoping they would seat, but no luck. It's like riding over railroad tracks.

Great tubless tire.

We have been riding the 28mm Pro ONE TLE for a few years now and have been very happy with grip, ride feel, and longevity. They mount and seat easily most every time and hold air very well. Not much to complain about.
