All specifications
The Challenge Strada Bianca Pro has been developed for cobblestones, (bad) asphalt, and gravel. The tyre is comfortable, fast, supple and has a high puncture protection. This makes it ideal for gravel bikes, cyclocrossers and road bikes!

Cotton carcass and extra wide
The tread of this tyre is placed on a cotton carcass. This carcass makes the tyre very supple, keeping rolling resistance low and making your bike easily to steer. The extra width of 30 mm or 36 mm ensures that the tyre provides a lot of damping during cycling and thus increases comfort. If you have a road bike, you have to check whether the tyre fits on your bike because of this increased width.

Suitable for asphalt and gravel, ideal for bikepacking!
This Challenge Strada Bianca Pro Tyre has a smooth tread with a surprising amount of grip on gravel. This is due to the tyre's supple carcass, which conforms to the terrain. Plus, the tread features some extra texture to further improve grip. However, this texture doesn't cause any extra rolling resistance, and this tyre has the feel of a regular road bike tyre. The Challenge Strada Bianca Pro is ideal for long bike tours and bikepacking!

Tread and puncture protection
The tread of this tyre has been given extra puncture protection. For this purpose Challenge has developed the PPS-2 technology. Thanks to this technology, pebbles and other sharp objects are less likely to penetrate your tyre, resulting in a flat. The surface has also been given a tread with as much grip as possible, while maintaining low rolling resistance.

Different widths mean different tyre pressures
These Challenge Strada Bianca Pro bike tyres are available in different widths. The nice thing about wider tyres is that they require less air to achieve the same rolling resistance as a narrower tyre with more air. In addition, you also get extra comfort, so it's a real win-win situation. A wider tyre will therefore also have a lower maximum tyre pressure than a narrower one. But before buying wider bike tyres, make sure that they fit your frame!

Perfect

- Dylan 16 August 2024

Unsurprisingly, it wasn't easy to fit, but the result was perfect after 200km - see how it goes over time!

Almost impossible to put around your wheel but once in place a top tyre

- Martijn 15 July 2024

Had read other reviews about it, but putting this tyre around your wheel is hard work. Finally managed with silicone spray, a lot of patience, persistence and even more strength. I am quite used to difficult tyres, but this one is nr. 1 and I don't recommend it if you have little or no experience with fitting tyres yourself. But once they are on, I must say they give a lot of confidence when cycling. Little resistance and still a lot of grip. The yellow tyre is more yellow in real life and doesn't have that nostalgic brown, but it does make you extra visible. 4 Stars instead of 5 because of the difficult fitting.

Pros & Cons

Bicycle fine
Strikes with reduced visibility
Putting it around your wheel is a drama

do not buy

- Arno 18 April 2024

They looked nice but I couldn't get them fitted, I've been through a lot in the 30 years I've been cycling, but this really wasn't doable, so don't know if they ride well, I returned them again

Nice band, hell of an assembly.... Worth the work ?

- Laurence 22 April 2023

This was an assembly process over two days: First mount tire over rim without tube, let that stretch overnight. Then loosen it, spray WD40 in it or lubricate with dish soap then mount with tube. Side note: had a flat a few days after mounting and puncture during a ride and was able to mount the tire just fine next to the road.

Pros & Cons

Cheek color is nice
Grip feels good
Nice tire
Fitting is true terror
