ThickSlick Hybrid Bike Tire (26"/29"/700c) Wire Bead - Slick Tread - Commuter & Campus (Black/White, Optional Flat Guard)

I can only review it for indoor usage, so I can't say anything about puncture resistance or even durability. But for indoor use, this is the best tire I've used. I actually got a second wheel and cassette so I could use this tire indoors. I have a basement office that I share with my wife when we work from home and although it's a fairly large basement with several doors between her space and mine, the noise from indoor biking was disturbing her. Which was a problem because I like to hop on my indoor bike at least once a day when I have a bit of break so it couldn't always be afterhours. The worst was when I had my MTB on the trainer. It was converted to a hybrid some time ago with a much gentler looking tires but the noise was still tremendous. Even my road bike with Conti GP 5000TL was noisier than she'd like. But this tire has almost eliminated all wheel/tire noise. The whine from the motor (mag resistance trainer) still remains but it's pretty well muffled by the doors and nowhere near as annoying as it used to be. For me, I can actually hear what the trainers are saying on iFit and hear the sound from Zwift, plus the TV I have playing. Add to that its very reasonable price and it's a winner. As for swapping out the wheels, get something like KMC Missing Link and it's pretty easy. My bike chain actually came with a SRAM link but I didn't know so I have two links on the chain... Oops... So look for that if you go that route. UPDATE: so I bought another one and equipped my Cannondale F29 Caffeine MTB front and back. And I'm really happy. I wasn't sure about the traction of a slick but they grip really well, although the roadway was dry. And the low rolling resistance made pedaling much easier and the bike faster than I remembered. I'm going to upgrade to a lighter wheelset and use the MTB (now a hybrid, I guess) as my touring bike instead of my road bike. I'm really happy with this purchase.

I bought these to replace gravel tires on my '98 Trek and so far they're amazing! I ride in the city and the streets are full of all types of glass and debris. Because of the thick tread I'm always confident that I won't get a puncture. As far as rolling speed, they're on the heavier side but they still roll fast! Makes sure to pump them up close to 65psi to get full rolling capabilities. Also, I've seen some concern over grip. In my opinion, they actually feel a bit sticky on pavement. Of course you have to be more careful in wet conditions but isn't that with most tires? For my off roaders, these feel great on packed dirt. I did some gravel/single track and these ate up branches and bumps. They aren't the best in loose gravel since they don't have treads to bite in, but they said, they'll still work if youre extremely careful.

Was using a mountain bike to mount it on a stationary bike trainer. The mountain bike tires made so much noise so I decided to get this tire. Ever since I installed this, it feels so smooth, quiet and less rolling resistance. Ride is smooth. The quality of the tire did not disappoint. Lovin' every bit of it. If you use a bike trainer, get this tire to mount on your bike.

These tires transformed my old mountain bike into a fun and efficient city bike. I pumped them up to 60 psi (65 is the max) and pedaling on pavement and over potholes has never been easier. The thick bulbous shape helps them perform fairly well on dirt and gravel trails as well. I would highly recommend these as an easy way to turn an old MTB into a city commuter. The logo is printed on the inside of the bulge, which leads me to believe that they should stay relatively unblemished for a long time. The look of these tires is DEFINITELY unique and noticeable, with the large branding. People notice and comment on these tires. It's up to you whether you think that's a good thing or a bad thing. Fit: These tires are certainly slick and very thick! Make sure the tubes you pair them with can go larger than 2". These tires are wider and taller and take up much more space than the old knobbly 1.95" MTB tires that I replaced with them. They have a wide range of inflation pressures available, which means you have a lot of control to tune your ride from soft to hard. They shipped in huge full big square boxes (*not* rolled up), and they popped onto my 26" rims pretty easily. Please look up how to change a bicycle tire before complaining about tires being difficult to install; these were very easy to install.

This thick slick tire is a must have if you have a mountain bike and you use your bike indoors on a stationary bicycle trainer. This tire has no tread, very smooth. I got my bike on a bicycle trainer in the garage, and what they don't tell you is that the tensioner on those bicycle trainer goes again your back wheels and it creates a horrible loud sound as you pedal in place, because the tire treads are hitting it; however with this tire, the sound when from 1000 to like 5 on the scale on the loudness. Now when I pedal is very quiet in the garage compared to before. The tire did not come folded like the typical mountain bike tires, so be ready to receive a full size tire inside a huge amazon box! silly but that is how it came to me. If you have ever installed a new bike tire before, this is no different, super easy, straightforward, I popped the mountain bike tire out , and this on and fits nicely on my 26" frame. The suggested PSI is anywhere between 35 - 55, however for indoor on a stationary, at 36PSI is very solid and I kept it at that and works well. It is a bit pricey , but I think it is worth the money.

Very happy with the tires. I bought em as my everyday road tire and they hold up very well against the roadside crud that gets thrown at em. And of course they look great doing it! Great price point too!

These tire are awesome for the urban setting. Provides great grip with minimal rolling resistance. I do not ride in the rain nor offroad, so these slick tires are perfect for me.

J'ai acheté deux pneus et un était cassé, j'ai demandé un changement ou un remboursement mais les délais techniques étaient expirés... J'aurais dû le monter tout de suite pour m'en rendre compte tout de suite, mais il n'en demeure pas moins qu'il était cassé.

El producto es increíble, es un neumático con mucho prestigio y se lo tiene ganado, se agarra al asfalto de locura .el vendedor en cambio horrible, pedido con una semana de retraso, los escribías y como hablar con una pared, no se hacían responsables de nada , poco mal y tarde

Meilleur rapport qualité/prix en terme de solidité/endurance et rendement. Je recommande pour les skids et usage en conditions extrêmes (débris de verres, limaille...).

10/10 and it came in its own box not folded so 11/10 . got it on 1500w ebike . runs fast and smooth and yes it does feel sticky. love it !!

Soy ciclista mtb y recientemente me compré un rodillo cycleops fluid 2 pa entrenar en casa. Obviamente montar la llanta de tacos no era opción ya que el ruido es insoportable y se gasta la llanta muy repentinamente. Así que investigando encontré que podía ponerse una llanta de ruta en el aro 29” y funcionó a medias ya que no calzaba correctamente y tenía un brinco incómodo en el rodillo. Así que buscando llantas aquí en Amazon me encontré con esta y oh por Dios!! Una experiencia totalmente satisfactoria. No sabía que existían llantas listas para mtb y pues calza correctamente solucionando el problema del brinco, además que en rodillo sentí algo más familiar el usar esta llanta, así como si anduviera en la calle. Solo espero sea duradera y aguante cientos de kms. La recomiendo totalmente si tienes rodillo y piensas montarle una bike mtb pa entrenar.
