They blow up with 21 internal to 30,5mm. A bit too narrow for my frame but ill ride them anyway. Got a fresh set of 28mm pirelli's already ready. Pick them up when they have some discount because €60,- per tire is a bit much imo...
+1. Actually a TLR SL on front wheel. Perfect on Feders. Zero puncture. Easy to mount/unmount (GP5000 are a nightmare with my wheels).

Only if your are a pro and have a mechanic 24/7. Ride is fantastic IMHO, but problem is that at 5-5.5 bar sealant can't handle punctures properly, so you will end with a lot of patchs inside...

Actually a Corsa 28mm rear, Pirelli Race 25mm TLR SL front. Next set to test will be Schwalbe when available (Not tried yet), but Pirelli is the way to go for me (except for the price
).

Nice looking tires. Let us know how it goes.

I dont use the SL versions, just regular are the way to go. They cost usually around €60 but sometimes you can get a nice deal, I picked up 6 for €40 each. They mount very nice (As per usual with Pirelli) They seal really good and easy and keep pressure. Never have to pump them up. Even after 2-3 weeks they don't even lose pressure. Had a small puncture after 1500km and they sealed instantly. Perfect tire.

I have tubeless FMB's 26 on the front and 29 on the back.
I only have done under 100kms on them, they are very supple. Yesterday I went through some cobbles and I couldn't believe how smooth they were (compared to the 23's I was used too).
They hold air very well.
Only negative I have for the moment is the sealant (Stan's) leaking on the seams between the tanwall and the black rubber, nothing to bad though.

Agree. I got SL because it was on offer for 40€ and it was targeted for the front wheel. Still usable after 5000km

Update on my update for the Schwalbe Pro One TLE's
Due to work commitments, I havent been able to ride for a bit over two weeks until yesterday.
Pumped up tyres before my ride and was pleasently surprised to see the pressure at almost 40 psi (normally run 60/65 F/R) which I thought was pretty good after two weeks
So holding air is no longer a concern

Hello, does anybody have experience with the Challenge Strada Pro HTLR 25 or 27 mm ?
I just mounted a pair tonight and will be riding them tomorrow.
1. They look really well made.
2. They are tough to mount. I had to pinch the tire on one side of the last portion of bead and then really work a tire lever hard to get it over the rim.
3. No luck inflating with just a floor pump. The bead is way, way too tight. My AirShot canister worked just fine though.
4. The 25mm version comes up around 25.4-25.5mm on 19mm internal width rims. The width was very consistent no matter where I measured.

I have them in 40c for my gravel bike and they are very well made. Not the lightest but feel super supple in hand.
They have a large surface area of tread too (small sidewalls), so you should be really able to lwan these in.

I wait for my Challenge Strada Pro HTLR 27mm to arrive next week. I consistently run Schwalbe Pro Ones Super Race TLE 25 mm (tubeless) on my Farsports Feder wheels (disk brake, 35mm deep, 19mm internal width). Very very pleased with the Schwalbe tyres in terms of suppleness, rolling resistance and pucture protection even in Greek roads which are always in very bad condition
Yet, I always liked tan tyres. The challenge tyres are famous for being very supple, so I deciced to give them a try at 27mm to be used in a brevet next Saturday. I hope not to regret bying them.

I really look forward to hearing for your test ride review !!!
