Danger Dassie Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Nothing on availability ... This still in the R&D stage? Pretty much done with all of that, think they're gearing up on getting them to production and into market. Expected release date around Eurobike, more than likely a few weeks after they'll start being available. Personally quite like the Marathon Almotion for a nice all rounder on my CX bike. Commuting, road and sometimes CX Sundays, infused with beer and blood.

Frosty Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 I'm quite keen to go the tubeless route on my Racing 3 wheels, 25mm wide.My only concern is knowing if they are actually tubeless compatible before I splash out R1600 on a set of Pro One's.

Fulcrums? Yes there are no spoke holes so no tape needed.

Make sure your wheels are actually road tubeless compatible. Your Fulcrums should be the "Two-way fit" type. The critical feature is that the rim's bead MUST have the tubeless profile or else you run the very real risk of blowing the tyre off the rim. It's not enough that the rim is sealed / has no spoke holes. There are many rims that have no spoke holes that are not road tubeless compatible. I have Fulcrum Racing Zero's Two-way fit and have run Hutchinson Fusion tubeless tires for two years now with no punctures. Awesome technology. Can't wait for the Schwalbe Pro Ones - they are in a league of their own apparently (performance, puncture resistance, weight and comfort). Edited September 23, 2015 by openmind TALUS 1

Mine are not the 2-way fit, but the normal Racing 3's (2015 model).
VeloRacer Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Where can i find Schwalbe One tyroe? I see Evobikes don't have stock
Capricorn Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Where can i find Schwalbe One tyroe? I see Evobikes don't have stock Bike-components.de has 23c in stock. No where else as far as I could determine from my usual online stores. Schwalbe's doing a solid job of building up steep inventories of vaporware, starting with Procore. Pro One is coming in a solid second...
EVOBIKES ONLINE STORE Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Where can i find Schwalbe One tyroe? I see Evobikes don't have stockWill have the 23C's in stock in about 2 weeks time. Price will be about R995 a tyre...

LOOK695 Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 See that the price of the Pro One is being advertised as £60. Quite pricey for a tyre
Frosty Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Watch out for a minor weight penalty on them hoopsA weight penalty?With tyres/tubes vs tubeless, or just the wheels?
