Schwalbe pro one tubeless

[Mr Ted]

Has anyone used these? What were they like to fit, did you use sealant , all comments appreciated as I am thinking of trying a pair

Ta!

Fitted a pair to some Cero AR30’s. they were a bd to get on but sealed instantly once one. Fitted a pair to some Felt RSL3 wheels and they went on easily but would not seal at all whatever I tried, gave up in the end and put tubes in.

Running them on Cero ARD23 wheels, easy to fit and inflated and sealed onto the rim using an Airshot. No problems and they ride nicely IMO.

I had them fitted to my prime rp-50s on recommendation from my LBS. He fitted them too and they've been fine. Top up every week or so but they roll very well.

I've had an absolute nightmare with them on my wife's bike running some Reynolds Assault LE tubeless wheels. (Edit to add that was with tubes - I didnt try them tubeless)

They were almost totally impossible to get onto the bead. More than one occasion has been a monumental struggle, even at home let alone on the side of the road.

Last time the rear still hadn't seated properly by 140psi so I have removed them and fitted some Pzero Velos (with tubes) which went on properly by about 70psi (as did a second hand Sworks turbo I tested to check I wasn't wasting money)

Thanks everyone, I will give them a try, I am a very lightweight rider so my cruising watts aren't that high and anything I can save on rolling resistance all helps!! I have an air compressor (every house should have hot and cold water plus compressed air on tap!) and some Schwalbe fitting lube so fingers crossed they go on OK

I fitted them to some dt swiss rims, went on easily and one went on without issue with a foot pump. The other needed a canister but pretty good.

They do lose pressure though. After a week they are at 40psi, but don't go any lower than that. Not really an issue

[Mr Ted]

Fitted the 28mm versions to some Hunt Mason X wheels, plenty of Schwalbe fitting lube and they went on with just a tyre lever for the last few cms, used my air compressor and they seated perfectly at about 80psi, I am leaving them a day for the fitting lube to dry out before deflating them to add the sealant, the lube is water based and I don't know how/if it will react with the sealant. I have checked the pressures and they haven't dropped in 8 hours so they must be well seated on the rims. Fingers crossed!!!
