Reviews over the

Schwalbe Pro One TLE

Super fine tire for many fast miles !

Pros & Cons

Incredibly easy to mount on wheel and inflates with a track pump first time. Very smooth rolling.

Pros & Cons

Looks not much puncture resistance, but still recommended fast and comfortable

Pros & Cons

Fantastic tyre, the new model is even better and the old one was pretty good

Pros & Cons

Works very well with hookless rim with wide inner channel (21"). Instant heeling, minimal pressure loss after first mounting. On the road it performs very well.

Pros & Cons

Tires delivered quickly in very solid packaging from Schwalbe. Tires are relatively flexible and therefore easy to fit to the rim without tooling. Then the big one. The sidewalls of both tires had small leaks that were not sealed by the latex. Not even after applying extra latex. The tires lost about 3 bar per day (from 5 -> 2 bar in 24h). Many users seem to experience this or complain about having to re-pump a lot (probably the same issue). Now we have to wait and see if Mantel will provide warranty. No more Schwalbe for me!

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

I had the previous version and was able to mount it as tubeless with moderate effort. This one I ended up taking to my LBS for their compressed air line. The product packaging is OTT - a shiny box inside a shiny sleeve box, which Mantel then put in a large packaging box. It might be premium, but is this necessary? Rolls very nicely though and I got good service from the previous one until it was gashed.

Pros & Cons

I’ve ridden quite a few of the fastest tyres, but when gp’s and corsa’s come off in winter the pro one’s are the only formula sticky enough to feel safe on a road bike - superb

Pros & Cons

Tubeless that goes on the rim so smoothly that an ordinary floor pump will suffice. The pop you normally hear doesn't come. Had I known this in advance, it would have saved me several hours of pointless pumping.

Pros & Cons

Tires went on well and bulged very softly

Pros & Cons

Had the previous ProOnes, the new 28mm are narrower than the old, apparently taking into account new rim sizes. I could possibly go up to a 30mm. Just fitted this hope it lasts as long as the previous one.

Pros & Cons

Very smooth, fast tyre. Easy to seat and install. Noticed a couple of small nicks after the first few rides so remains to be seen how well they last, but no p*nctures yet

Pros & Cons

I have replaced this tyre which was originally supplied with a new Canyon Road bike. The rear tyre has cut up badly and i have had two punctures after only 800 miles. I have replaced the tyre and reserve judgment.

Pros & Cons

This tubeless tire is definitely a tire that provides great smoothness, comfort and safe riding and grip but has one major flaw: it does not maintain pressure, despite the use of sealing fluid inside it. At every outing it is necessary to check the pressure and inflate the tire. Very pronounced leakage at the rear, more limited at the front.

Pros & Cons

Have always been a fan since the launch of the Pro One but the 2020 TLE version in 28mm ranks as one of the fastest rolling tubeless tyres I’ve used. 10,000km this year without needed to fix a puncture used with Stans RACE sealant

Pros & Cons

I tried another brand first, impossible to fit but these went on like a dream, they are very comfortable and look awesome as well

Pros & Cons

Tires easy to Fit by hand, pumps up with normal track pump. Good mileage achieved on these with great puncture protection.

Pros & Cons

For the summer, I mounted these tires (with tubes) on my Mavic Allroad Gravel Wheels. This allowed me to convert my Koga Colmaro, which already has fast geometry, into a real racer. On the asphalt, this allows me to easily keep up with racers like the Trek AL bikes. My rims are quite wide (23mm internally), the 28mm tires, which I have, are quite difficult to fit because of this. I haven't punctured them with several hundred km so haven't needed to replace them next to the road yet either, but this is where I'm kind of looking forward to it. Once they are on, they are perfect, which is why 'Stug' is both a plus and a minus.

Pros & Cons

The tires ride very nicely and have good grip. Already rode flat once though and the tubeless milk didn't get the hole closed. They also look nice I think.

Pros & Cons

First ride thought tyres were soft the ride was so smooth, immediately noticed lower rolling resistance over previous Schwalbe One's but have picked up a a couple of visible cuts in first 200 miles.

Pros & Cons

I had had the 2019s and had a great time never a puncture. The 2020s also have a very good compound sliding soft to the point provides comfort and grip. Big flaw, also reported by other reviews, they lose pressure quickly. I put them in water and verified the presence of several leaks all on the sidewall of the tire. They are tiny as if they were open "pores." Dealt with recurring manufacturing defect...with what they cost...I think I will change at next purchase

Pros & Cons

Easy to mount, levers not necessary. But impossible fill wiht a normal pump, compressor is needed. Reynolds AR41 tubeless wheels.

Pros & Cons

Since the beginning of this year I have been riding on these Schwalbe TLE tires. No more punctures, comfort many times greater due to lower tire pressure. Less rolling resistance and more grip due to more flexible rubber. Do check tire pressure before riding, it may be a few bar lower after a few days.

Pros & Cons

Great tire that bolts smoothly. Lots of grip in the corners and therefore you dare more. I ride this tire tubeless at about 5.5 bar rear and 4.7 bar front. A few small punctures were sealed by Latex in the first 5000km. The last larger puncture became fatal but I bought the same tire again. The only disadvantage is that when I had a larger puncture I could barely get the tire off the rim and had to "fiddle" a lot to get back on the road.

Pros & Cons

Loved the speed and grip of these tyres, easy to set up tubeless. Had an unfortunate blowout with rear though - the bead actually split so sent back and had replaced foc, but lost a bit of confidence in them now.

Pros & Cons

Tires ride very nice but very moderate in terms of puncture resistance.... I'm going back to my trusty conti's because nothing more irritating than frequent punctures.

Pros & Cons

This is a great tyre offering a good compromise between speed and durability for the road. I would not use it in the winter though unless the roads were dry and pretty clean.

Pros & Cons

Perfect tire for me! Very smooth, and lots of grip!

Pros & Cons

Lightweight, comfortable and apparently very hard-wearing; it's this last feature that surprised me the most. Easy to assemble, can be clipped on with a foot pump.

Pros & Cons

I have used these now for around 5 weeks and have put about 350 miles on them. Overall i'm disappointed in the performance. They appear to have virtually no puncture resistance as evidenced by the hiss on every ride i've had so far. The last ride, i had 5 punctures, with the sealant able to cope with 4 of them but not the 5th. The front tyre has delaminated making it unusable, Very poor i'd say.

Pros & Cons

I found these very easy to fit on my tubeless ready rims. I had previously tried to mount the previous generation of Schwalbe Pro Ones, but gave up after I couldn't get them to inflate even with a co2 pump. This latest version however was a doddle, easy to get on the rim with only my fingers, remove the valve insert, co2 pump and boom.... Inflated instantly. Once beaded on the rim simply insert your sealant fluid of choice and refit the valve and pump with your normal track pump. Size wise I was looking for a 25mm tire that didn't bulk up on my 23/19mm width rims. Yhese came out at exactly 25mm, (the older version was almost 28mm which caused some chainstay rub on my Cannondale Supersix). As for riding, these are great, definitely the fastest tyres that I've ridden, but also with plenty of grip. Being able to run with a slightly lower pressure than traditional tubed clincher tyres also greatly increases the comfort... Especially on broken or rough surfaces.

Pros & Cons

Good workmanship is very light. Mounted very easily, made bead with regular pump, tend to lose pressure in a few days. Usual comfort and grip on the road.

Pros & Cons

The tires are of good workmanship and on road test they are fine. Unfortunately they lose pressure quickly(24 hours) especially the rear, and not because of incompatibility with the rims as they already previously mounted the same tires without problems . Currently I have not been able to solve the problem even by disassembling and reassembling them with added latex. I will try replacing the valves although it does not seem that the air leakage is coming from there.

Pros & Cons

Very comfortable, dynamic 28x700 tire that mounts easily on mavic rims. The only minor complaint is that, after 500 km and with the product injected at the time of fitting, the tire did not maintain its pressure (-3 bar in one week).

Pros & Cons

Easy to fit, no tyre levers required. Excellent grip and roll really well.

Pros & Cons

Very good comfort and good grip. Drive on a slightly lower PSI with these tires. They do pick up some small stones here and there but that is to be expected due to the slightly softer compound of this tire. Just check your tire after every ride and be sure to remove any stones that have stuck with tweezers. Whatever tire you use, this should be routine for anyone who rides a bit seriously. Mounting the tire you just need to observe the following steps. I also had some temporary problems with the tire not holding pressure very well. This had nothing to do with the tire! STEP 1 After you put the tire on the rim, which you should have carefully cleaned, etc., pump it up first. Just to get the tire in shape. TIP! Should you have the experience that the rim does not click nicely into the rim, brush the tire with soapy water on both sides. Glides into place considerably easier! STEP 2 Pressure off again. Unscrew valve and just put 80ml of sealant in. Put the valve back in. CAUTION!!! When inflating the tire, make sure your valve is on top!!! STEP 3 Pump the tire really full! This ensures that the tire is really pressed into the rim. If you do not do this and bring it up to the pressure you want to drive with, you will lose pressure. It has to be pressed into the rim for a good seal. STEP 4 The tire is in place. Give the wheel a few spins in assuming you have it hanging in the bike so the sealant distributes. Bring the valve back up to its highest point and let some air out. STEP 5 Inflate the tire to the desired pressure and enjoy its comfort and grip. TIP!!! In all the operations you do with air in or out, make sure your valve is always at the top because of the liquid sealant. After every ride, check your tire for stones and remove them! Most leaks are caused by pebbles that remain in the tire and come through the wall on second contact. It rarely happens that they push all the way through the tire at once.

Switched to tubeless tires from Swalbe Pro One TLE 2020. Front tire punctured after 300 km due to piece of metal, can happen. The Squirt Seal didn't seal properly, so an inner tube went in. Rear tire finely worn within 3000 km so a small stone easily punctured it. Conclusion: puncture and wear resistance not in proportion to the price. Will now try the Conti 5000.

Pros & Cons

Already worn out after 2000km, is really too fast

Pros & Cons

Top comfort and ease of use, much better than the gp5000tle

Pros & Cons

Fitted tyre without levers. Sealed first time via a reservoir pump. Much easier than previous Pro One. Felt fast on first ride. Hope endurance is as good as previous.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

A Good Tyre gone Bad . Sealant is coming through the sidewall . The tyre still works well but you have no confident in it .
