Re: [RBW] Favorite 26" tires

[Karl Wilcox]

I won't pile on, but Compass tires are boutique cycling at its best!  In
other words, I can't afford them (I ride too much).  And, then, one blew
out at the sidewall on a 40 mile descent.  No reason; just an apparently
'flawed' sidewall (and, of course, a very thin sidewall in order to achieve
that lovely suppleness).  If I want supple fast tires, I will got back to
sew-ups.  At 61, crashes at 40 mph result in rather long recovery times.
My Compass  blow-out is probably an outlier, and not to be used to slander
Compass quality, etc.  Still, you can have light, you can have strong, but
can you really have both in the same tire?

Re: [RBW] Favorite 26" tires

[exliontamer]

I love Rene Herse tires and have them on two of my three bikes but hesitate 
recommending them blindly. I've never flatted on one but have seen(and 
heard) of a lot of people flatting constantly on them. Jan likes drilling 
that they're good for everything and that you'll leave roadies in the dust 
while being comfortable but they're still a tire that requires riding 
diligence. That said, I don't think they're the smartest choice for a 
commuting tire in most places. I second whoever saying that if you thought 
the Schwalbes were bad at picking up cuts to avoid the RH tires.

Re: [RBW] Favorite 26" tires

[Johnny Alien]

I think the Panaracer tires are really underrated and overlooked. There 
seemed to be a consensus that the Parimoto 650B tires were prone to flats 
but I have not experienced that. I rode a set of them and Rene Herse tires 
back to back and honestly while I think the RH tires are great they are not 
double the price nice. I have found the same to be true with the Gravel 
King series and between the different variants all sizes are covered. So I 
agree with the other Johnny above me. Look around and there are a lot of 
good deals out the for the GK tires

Re: [RBW] Favorite 26" tires

[Den John]

Been very pleased with the Panaracer Gavel King SK I bought a while ago. 
Been on a couple of builds. I currently have them on
a fixed wheel MTB I built in the summer. They were a bit scary in mud when 
riding a geared bike, but they are much better on the fixie. 

I also liked the Maxxis DTH as a reasonably priced skinwall commuter tyre. 
2,3" is a bit wide for an old MTB frame - can't get fenders over there. 

Cheers,
Johnny

Contact your bike shop they can get tires made to use on a trainer. Save

[RBW] Favorite 26" tires

[Lynn Haas]

I moved to Iowa this year, and am experiencing my first Iowa winter. I 
never expected to spend this much time on a trainer. I even signed up for 
Zwift. Why is there a bike path inside a volcano?

Anyway, my Panaracer Paselas have a weird spot where the casing joins that 
goes thunk-thunk-thunk on the rollers. It's driving me nuts. I don't want 
to put a trainer tire on the bike. I want to believe that I'm going to go 
ride outside again sometime before the end of time.

What are the favored 26 inch road-ish tire favorites these days? I have had 
and disliked Schwalbes. My last set of Marathon Supremes picked up an 
ungodly array of laceration-inducing, afternoon-ruining, sharp objects. I 
was quite pleased with the Panaracers until I started riding inside. My 
downstairs neighbors are probably unhappy with the thunk-thunk-thunk, too. 
It definitely scares the cat. I'm on an MUSA Atlantis and could go up to 
about 40mm with my fender setup. Ideas?
