Road Tubeless FINALLY Comes of Age | New & Redesigned Schwalbe Pro One Tyre

Posted on August 22, 2019 by WCB •

Schwalbe has updated its popular Pro One tubeless tyre, with a new design said to be faster and lighter than its predecessor, with improved puncture protection and durability.

The latest Pro One utilises a new carcass construction and compound, and also conforms to the now-confirmed standard for road tubeless.

Schwalbe claims the Pro One Tubeless Easy (TLE) offers 13% lower rolling resistance than the outgoing Pro One, with 22% more cornering grip. Puncture protection has also been improved by a claimed 30%. Wear rate is said to be 4,000-5,000km. The Pro One TT Tubeless Easy is said to offer a further 21% improvement in rolling resistance.

The Pro One TLE will be available in 25mm, 28mm and 30mm sizes, optimised for a 19mm internal rim width, while Schwalbe will also offer a Pro One for use with an inner tube, with the additional option of a 23mm version. The Pro One TT will be available in 25mm and 28mm widths only.
