Hi All,
I had good luck last year on a raid pyrenees with Veloflex corsa evo tubeless in 25mm on 21 internal hunt wheels. But they are a bugger to get on and off and to seal. Most of the roads in Majorca are great but that last 100km is not on the best of road surfaces. A non sealing puncture or side wall gash-i think they are notionally less strong than others in the sidewalls-would be no fun on tired legs and arms and the cut off time looming. So looking for something that is just as fast but easier to deal with in case of a catastrophic failure. Any recommendations? I havent really kept up with tyres.
Thanks in advance
Bob

GP5000STR is my choice if tubeless, I did 3000km around Mallorca on them last year with nothing but a pinhole puncture that sealed its self.
ASTR is a good shout if you're concerned about sidewall damage specifically but I don't think it's needed.
I can fit and remove both easily with nothing but a single tyre lever across the three wheel sets I use them on (rapide, 303s and 353nsw)
