[Closed] Schwalbe G-One Tubeless (G for gnarmac, obviously)

Like a small block eight isn't it?

Yum - yes please - what my >X< has been waiting for...

Looks like they're covering all sorts of uses with their 'one' tubeless line, including a version of the marathon commuter / touring-tastic...

The G one will be pitched squarely at the yank "Gravel" niche which is what all the "Gnarmac" bollocks is really about. People want a comfortable pootle on fire roads, fits that requirement nicely...

I'm liking the look of those, I want to try something a little bigger on my Diverge. Not listed on their website yet so I guess a while before they are available 🙁

Should be interesting to give these a try on the Diverge. Hopefully there'll be enough clearance with them fitted as the last 35c tyres I tried on mine had no more than a millimetre or two of clearance either side on the rear.

Anyone ridden these yet?

I think there's a set of them in the post room at work waiting for me, in 38c flavour.

At least I think that's what it is, I can't recall ordering anything else. All things ging to plan, they'll be my Tuesday/THursday canal path pootle tyres

Just bought a pair of these from Rose Bikes, fitted today and had my first ride.

38c front, 35c rear on a pair of Blackjack Tubeless wheels from same seller. Fitted well, with one layer of tape (quite tight) and wasn't sure how well the'd fit over a standard Stans Valve, in the end this wasn't a problem. Tested them out first without sealant to see if they would go up with a track pump and I'm pleased to report they did. Filled with sealant, reinflated and both went up and stayed up no problem.

Ride wise, it's nice to have a bit of comfort and did a couple of hours with no loss of pressure. Terrain wise a mixture of muddy parks, gravel, paths, steps, and other urban type terrain.

I'm pleased to report on this mix of terrain the ride was supply, grippy and very quick. Tyres roll exceptionally well, and with the large volume (compared to road tyres) are very comfortable.

Awesome!

They come up heavy apparently. 500g v 460 listed. I'll let them off if they're 8% wider than 38 though.

Interested specifically in a G-One -v- Barlow Pass review if anyone tries both?

I used a G-one on the back of my Tripster at battle on the beach..
It was plenty fast down the beach and was pretty impressed with it.
Will weigh it and report back....

Interested specifically in a G-One -v- Barlow Pass review if anyone tries both?

I'm currently running Barlow Pass on the Kite but plan on fitting a set of 38c G-Ones when I find some for a sensible price. I'll let you know how they are when I get them.

I have run tubed Barlow Pass and now running tubeless Bon Jon Pass on the Fargo. I've not had a great experience with Schwalbe tubeless (Big One faulty, Pro One unable to mount on different set of rims) and I'm after slightly bigger so I'm looking at trying the Panaracer Gravel King SK 40c which are reported to come up larger. Not much in the way of reviews on the G-One yet. Be interested in comparisons.

Word of warning - if they're anything like the Pro One then they will only make about 3 tyres and then mysteriously stop and you won't even be able to buy them from biken-komponenten-gerfekerschrund.de

£35 @ Rose bikes komponenten-gerfekerschrund.de

Dougal - interesting. Panaracer Gravel King 40 mics up 42+ apparently. Can live with half a kilo for that.

I think Compass tyres are made by Panaracer so I think they will be ideal. Not available anywhere that I can find currently though...
The Bon Jons (extralight) are excellent if you are after wider tubeless tyres for more road/hardpack use. To my eye they come out a similar width to the Barlow Pass.
