SchwalbeRACING RALPH Super Ground 29 Inch MTB Tire(Return to Product Page)

I want to love these tires. Using front and rear. Lots of grip in the dry and adequate in the wet. Tore the sidewall on a fast rocky PA based marathon race. Tires wearing at a reasonable rate. Runs small (Schwalbe issue) - not even close to ETRO size (4 tires purchased mounted and measured using calibrated calipers). Likely will not run on any rocky courses going foward.

Super light and grippy as being known for. I ride in Southern, Orange County - California. I really like this tire for blue and black trails. NOT SO MUCH for really steep descending. I have this and the Racing Ray combo, on a 2020 Pivot-429 Trail... and on a 2016 Santa Cruz Tallboy. Yes. I like em that much!

I was searching for a fast rolling XC tire and this one always comes up as the best, it's hard to find but I got one on biketiresdirect. Super happy with it and can't wait to put a lot of miles on it.

Love the traction this tire provided in dry and wet conditions. Very predictable
