Continental tyres doing best in a test run by them at their lab? He who pays the piper picks the tune.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These do seems funny to me. I'll get some stuff from the Huchy boys via Corima, and see if they are palying a different tune...

The final answer for tubeless vs standard road clincher will probably come in the form of a magazine shoot-out on the subject. That will probably only happen if the tubeless tyres start moving in big volumes. At this point that seems unlikely as the downsides in road tubeless far outweigh the positives and at this point it looks very niche market on a price basis.

 

Meantime, the claims made in any test can always be checked and disputed if necessary. But the tests and the results are needed for the guidance of all and it's good that someone is doing it.

I have just got a set of these, and after a couple of rides, I am very impressed!
