My best time on the G-Ones was only 15 seconds off that. In reality, they're not: my best time on this 50km/h smashfest of a segment on a proper road bike on 25mm tyres is just under four and half minutes. If you're battering around on well-surfaced A and B roads then you'd expect them to be a fair bit slower.

Not just fast for a big tyre, fast full stop. For off-road and mixed surface rides I ran them at 30psi with no problems at all.Īnd they're fast. On the road, 50psi was good for back lane riding and 60psi was the most I ever put in them. Schwalbe states a range of 45-70psi but for the most part I ran them at the bottom of that range, or below. The lack of a tube means no pinch punctures, which means you can drop the pressure for more grip and comfort. You can lean them right over into the the bends on the road, and they'll grab all sorts when climbing off-road. The close-packed knobbly tread, round profile and sticky tread compound give them prodigious levels of grip on all sorts of surfaces. The carcass of the tyre is very supple and they have an excellent ride feel. Well you don't, clearly, but they're much better when you do. And I even fitted them with a track pump, just so I could say I did. They went on first time every time with a Bontrager Flash Charger pump. It's available in 35mm and 40mm widths and uses Schwalbe's Tubeless Easy construction, which the company claims makes them – you've guessed, right? – easy to set up. The G-One is a gravel tyre, according to Schwalbe. "We at SCHWALBE believe that tubeless is the tire technology of the future!", it trumpets, and to prove what a great technology it is, it's knocking out super tyres like this. Schwalbe is a company that has fully embraced tubeless technology. As genuine all-rounders they're impossible to beat right now: fast rolling on tarmac and properly capable off-road. Reports say he used to cut off the noses and ears of policemen.If you can fit the Schwalbe G-One tyres in your frame, you should get some.
