Schwalbe One, whats next?
Moderator: robbosmans
Its time for some new boots, I have had Schwalbe Ultremo and One, in clincher.
Both have been fantastic with latex tubes.
Is there anything else out there apart from the GP4000 II, thats light and low RR?
I will be looking at 23c as I have a narrow rim.
Thanks guys

Vittoria will have the Corsa Speed out in a month or so. Looks to be available only in 23c

I think the above options may be better but Pro4 Limited 23s are very light and would likely have good rr or at least better than regular versions. Downside it that I am not aware of them actually being tested but they are narrow look aero mounted on rims.

How are you guys finding the Turbo Cotton to be holding up? Couple local guys ran them but were experiencing too many flats and rear only lasted about a month.

I ran Ones tubeless, now Im running Pro Ones tubeless. Pretty similar ride quality, but lighter, and easier to get on and off my rims. I have been confident racing crits on wet circuits with the Ones. Reduced RR has to count for something in my races; probably doesn't make much difference outside that.
My Turbo Cs seem to last really well so far. Heavy though @230g each, brought my bike back up over 6kg - a real shocker after running Conti GP TT / Force @ 185 ea.
Such nice though!!!!

The turbo cottons and s-works turbos have really low rolling resistance and are the only tires that I would consider over the Ones. I used 25mm One clinchers all last race season with no flats or cuts and got 2000 miles on the pair. My philosophy is if "if it ain't broke don't fix it." I have heard that the turbos are not very durable, so a slight penalty in rolling resistance is not worth the risk flats for me.
I have had so many cuts the on 4000 SII that I cannot recommend it to anyone.

Same situation for me and Schwalbe Pro One seems to tick most boxes so I will most likely try them out. Rolling resistance could perhaps be slightly better but it's not bad by any means.
I also read that they're pretty easy to put on/off so not concerned with flats etc.

If you are talking Pro One Tubeless RR is good
