Hmmm, do you know if they're tubelessable?
Hmmm, do you know if they’re tubelessable?
I read the description for you, the answer is in there....
Thanks OP - I was looking for a fast and light gravel tyre for mrs_oab's new bike to replace her proper slicks.
Anyone comment on how these compare to the WTB Resolute as a summer/dry-ish trails tyre?
I read the description for you, the answer is in there….
Very good of you. What is it?
In my defence it was less clear as I was pulling my jacket on to head out the door. Now I'm at the office and have plenty of time to browse the Web I see the obvious.
And the answer is….?

Second sentence in the link ...
"This easy-rolling, tubeless-ready tyre ..."
Mmmm tanwall too. Very good price, but already have a spare set after switching to wtb Riddler's this year
Hmm, nice. I use these on my gravel/commuter all year round (All Round, geddit!?) not sure 40c will fit in my frame though. Worth a punt to find out. Would a tanwall on the front, black on the rear upset people?

Yes. And if it doesn't upset you you're a monster
I'll get the felt tip out 😀
It's the 100kg limit per tyre?
I weigh 95kg ...🤔

Yeah, that's[i] weeeeird[/i]. Never seen a weight limit specified for a tyre before!
my go-to gravel/commute tyre. nice.
thanks
My default tyre choice on the gravel bike, they're very good. Fast enough on road and cope with most stuff off-road.
Schwalbe changed the description without changing the tyre; they called it 40c because bigger is better but actually it's just a rebranded 38...
Might pick up a pair for the tandem...

100% ?? The only thing putting me off is frame clearance as it's a great tyre
2 ordered. Possibly for the wife's bike.
Ahhh brill been after some tubeless tryes for my gravel bike for a while for road duties, 4 ordered!
Nice, cheers for the PSA OP.
Ordered a pair, as they're much lighter than my current gravel tyres.
But are these G-one going to be better suited to summer use than winter?
I had scored some similarly cheap WTB nanos a few weeks back from CRC that I can probably use through winter and then swap to the G-ones for summer...
Thanks for this. Running 38mm CXPros at the moment and hoping these will fit, but jonnyboi's comment suggests that won't be a problem lol. As above, OK for winter use?
They do run out of grip in the mud and get a bit lively. They are very fast but I switched to Riddler's for a bit more all condition grip (+some more volume). For dry or hardpack trails these schwalbe are fantastic though.
At this price their lack of durability isn't a problem, many thanks OP! Great PSA

[Quoting seems to be broken?]
Thanks, that's good news. Been looking for some wide tyres for winter road use, but thought 40 might be a bit too wide.
Link is broken so I assume that they've all gone. How much were they, out of interest?
Been after some cheap gravel tyres for ages. I suppose ebay will be awash with them soon, with a riidiculous mark-up?
£13
Yeah, belting price, that. Anyone who bought a set, but found they didn't fit, can talk to me....
plus a fiver or so postage, so a pair will have cost whoever is flipping them on eBay up to ~£30.
Hmmm, a week on and my tyres have only just been dispatched, suggests Rubble had to restock with all the demand...
Mine are still stuck on processing_promised! Glad I don't need them in a hurry...
I too only got despatch message yesterday.
Yeah same for me not in a rush thankfully.
They claim they were stock taking last week which caused an extra few days delay. They're never the quickest despatching things h usually takes about 5 days before despatch.
Mine has finally changed to picking
