Can anyone tell me why this 2.35 UST High Roller is £20 and all the other ones are priced between £30 - £40

Am I missing something?

Wire bead, not folding?

looks like a good deal...

as said, it's unusual to find a decent UST tyre for sub £30. Even sub £40 these days.

Would this tyre be good for the alps?

Heavy since dual ply and a bit thin.

But yes it would be good for the Alps if you're not used to wider tyres normally.

Get a 60a for the rear and a 42a for the front.
