Are they worth the extra, or too ‘fragile’ for XC, unless racing?

Ive used them for years for trail riding and racing and never had a problem. They save a lot of rolling weight nd you will notice a difference in how quick your wheels will pick up speed.

I’ve now gone tubeless, lets hope its as successful

Thanks, I’ll click ‘add to basket’ 🙂

Had zero puncture related issues with them in over four years of neigh on daily xc use, the only slight drawback if have found is that they do naturally lose a little air pressure over the course of a month or so.
