Reviews over the

Challenge Cross Limus TLR

Fitted tubeless without any problems. Falls wide, on a 23 mm tubeless rim I measure 37 mm tire width. Which is fine for me, but should you be bothered by UCI rules then...maybe use a narrower rim.

Pros & Cons

Very good tyre, but rather complicated to install. Make sure you have 2 good tyre levers in case of a puncture.

Pros & Cons

Good tyre with plenty of grip. It goes on easily and is easy to get tubeless. Although it needed extra sealant to make it airtight. Especially from the sidewalls a lot of liquid ran out at first. The tyre feels a bit slower than grifos.

Pros & Cons

Tyre is a bit tight because it can be tubeless, but is super supple and gives great grip. Really top of the line for greasy mud.

Pros & Cons

Recommended for wet surfaces and mud. I haven't had/found them any better for those conditions. For dry and hard ground too coarse and less steering. Grifo is the better compromise if you don't want to change when conditions change Points deduction for difficult tubeless, takes 1 week to close.

Pros & Cons

All the grip, as you would expect. Inflated tubeless with just a track pump (on Hunt 4 Season rims). BUT Lots of little pinholes in the sidewall, particularly where the tubes were creased in transit. Eventually sealed after laid flat overnight. Give yourself a few days before a race to make sure the sealant has done its job.

Pros & Cons

Very good breaking-in in the mud.

Tyre has great grip in mud, espcialy on the corners. I did puncture it in its first race, but I think that is rider error rather than a problem with the tyre.
