Pros & Cons
- Challenge Strada Pro TLR tyres can be used throughout the year, in various circumstances.
- No more standing by the side of the road with a flat tyre, because these tyres come tubeless ready.
- Tubeless cycling gives you less rolling resistance, more grip and more comfort.
- This tyre is unique because it is outfitted with a flexible cotton and allows you to ride tubeless, giving you an extra smooth ride.
- Less suitable for off-road usage. Consider purchasing gravel tyres if you're planning to ride off-road.
- This tyre comes completely flat in the pack, you have to fold over the sidewalls yourself for easier mounting.

Flexible carcass
The Challenge Strada is known for its flexibility. Its supple rubber improves your performance when riding. Uniquely, this tyre is made from cotton and it is tubeless ready. These features give you more grip, more comfort and lower rolling resistance. The degree of flexibility of this tyre is measured in TPI. The higher the TPI (threads per inch) the thinner each individual strand and the more flexible the tyre. A tyre with lower TPI is thicker and therefore more durable.
Technology
Tubeless ReadyThese tyres have been especially created to be able to ride without inner tubes. Add latex to install these tyres, and having to stop by the side of the road to fix punctures will be a thing of the past. Latex sealant will fill quickly fill up any small punctures the tyre may have.

Beautiful tire to look at, dramatic puncture resistance
After a difficult assembly finally got the tires mounted. Because they are open tubular tires, the tires are flat on the rim when mounted. After 30km already the first flat which was not sealed by the sealant, and after 170km another flat which was not sealed. Because of the relatively high pressure with 25mm tires, tubeless is not suitable.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
The ideal band.
Challenge makes beautiful products and the handmade TLR is my favorite. The high TPI provides low rolling resistance and the look of the tire is beautiful. Fitting is a challenge especially on carbon wheels.

Favorite tire with 1a optics
My second set of Strada Pro TLR. Am very satisfied. Incredibly smooth tire. Mounted within 5 minutes on DT Swiss 1400. Some soft soap and the right technique work wonders.

Pros & Cons

Warning: no wet grip
These tires are beautiful and seem very quality handmade. They are also great for cycling because they have low rolling resistance. That's where my positive experience ends. I found it super difficult to put these tires tubeless with a hand pump. Had to buy a booster to get them on where it was never necessary before with other tubeless ready tires. These tires have virtually no grip on a wet road surface. First ride on a wet road and I fell twice. Slipped once in a corner (not that serious) and fell pretty hard the second time - slipped over a ditch in the road that I would normally expect to roll over easily. I've never fallen on my road bike before and suddenly it happens twice in one day with these tires. My shirt is completely torn, my bike is fortunately still fine with some scrapes. I myself have no serious injuries but some scrapes. The worst part is that now I don't have the confidence to take turns with these tires even though I try to ignore what happened. Really bad experience, these tires are dangerous.
