Schwalbe Road Cruiser Bicycle Tyre - 28x1.6042 - 622, Black, Clincher, 47-559 (26X1.75), Rubber, Symmetrical

I have to say these tyres are amazing. I rely on the fact I need to travel upwards of 8 times a day to different client visits as a Personal Trainer by bike and kept getting punctures at least 3 times a month on the debris laden London roads. Since buying these tyres more than 6 months ago, I've had none. Yes Zero! I will probably get one now but would still have to say I am way ahead. Super reliable and well worth the slightly extra expense.

Good tyres as others have said, so much better on-road compared with knobbly mountain bike tyres. The 5 stars are for Schwalbe's tyres and the good price.But the packaging! Two tyres in huge, inappropriate boxes 1130x250x250 cm, one for EACH bicycle tyre. The tyres had been deformed to fit each box and the tyre wire bead was bent which had to be gently unbent on unpacking. They could have fitted BOTH tyres in a single box 670x670x110 (one-seventh of the size of the 2 boxes) without bending them or damaging them. Fortunately these are tyres to take tubes so the bead is not critical - as it would be if they had been tubeless.....

I recently returned to cycling to get a bit fitter really. I used to build bikes and sort of know my way around components albeit a little out of touch. They tyres that came with the new bike were fairly standard MTB tyres. Too knobbly for a smooth ride on the road but fine for rougher ground. Knowing the type of cycling I would be doing I needed to change the tyres. Having read many of the reviews here and the generally positive ratings this tyre has received, I thought they were worth a go. Initially, when installing them, I thought they were a shade too big for the wheel although i had ordered the correct size. However, when inflated, they were as tight as a drum. I have found them to have good grip and they run smoothly and relatively quietly. They provide a more comfortable and faster exeperience than the MTB tyres as well. The rubber was of a better quality than the tyres that came with the bike.I will probably purchase a pair for my wife's bicycle as they seem well worth the money.

Went onto my kid's balance bike OK. Little tight fitting, but bike tyres are always a bit of a pain in the backside so nothing too traumatic. Looks like a far superior tyre to the stock one which eventually disintegrated. This will almost certainly outlast the bike and at a very good price. Will happily buy another if the front tyre carks it.

After looking for a while i decided on these tyres because they looked good and were a reasonable price too.They arrived within 3 days and i couldn`t wait to get em on. They are very easy to put on and it took me about 15 minutes to replace both tyres.Despite the downpour going on outside i took the bike out for a test run.....what a difference!My bike was an absolute joy to ride. I gained so much more speed than i had before and without feeling like i was on a treadmill!The grip is fantastic and i slammed on in the wet a number of times with no skid.There is no annoying noise from them unlike my chunkies i had before.These are a perfect balance of grip,speed and less energy expended getting from A to B.....and no punctures yet.A good investment :-))

Bought these tyres to convert my MTB into a crossover bike as I do most of my cycling on the road. They are perfect for the job. Very quiet on the road and grip seems good. A little tricky to fit compared to standard MTB tyres, but once on are fine. The description says non directional but they do actually have a correct rotation so beware before fitting. Overall I am very happy with these and will buy again when they wear out.

I bought these a month ago and have ridden approximately 200 miles with them, I like the tyre and certainly makes road riding easier. However I ran over a piece of glass in the dark and immediately got a puncture. I'm not sure the puncture protection is that significant but other than that a decent tyre.

Good fit and good rolling resistance. I cycle about 30miles a day Mon - Fri and was getting punctures every week though Nov. I bought and fitted these in December and had my first two punctures only last week (took out two thorns that were hard as bloody steel). Very good protection but not full proof.
