Perfect choice right ?
I was looking for a narrower tyre choice for the gravel pafes but also on the road
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Almost impossible to put around your wheel but once in place a top tyre
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.

Smooth light running tire for gravel and asphalt
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
good location, difficult assembly
The handling is superb, although I find a maximum pressure of 5 bar on the low side for a tire of only 30mm. The tire is not preformed, which makes mounting quite difficult. I managed it with the use of tire cutters, be careful not to pinch the tube.

Perfect winter tyre for racing bikes
Perfect winter tyres for racing bikes! Even when dry, they are ideal for light gravel roads. I definitely recommend the 30mm.

Pay after work
Mounting idd difficult. I first put them in a hot bath. Then dry them well and with a lot of talcum powder and a pair of strong hands, it works.

Lovely fast tyre that looks nice and retro , initial fitting can be a challenge though.
Not the easiest tyre to fit but it rides great, feels firm with low rolling resistance when combined with Challenge's latex inner tubes.

Good tyre, once on the rim
Getting this tyre on a rim is a real ordeal. Surprising considering that cyclocross tyres of the same brand go very easily on the (same) rim... Once fitted, I think it is a good tyre: good grip in corners and wet weather, rolling resistance is not too bad. The tread is pretty stiff so I am confident it will not puncture easily. The tyre says max 5 bar, but I ride with 6 and that goes without a problem. Lost 2 points because of the near heart attack when mounting, otherwise I would give it a 9.

very good
many people mount the tyre incorrectly the inner tube should be inflated slightly ;; and then it should be placed in the rim; then start on the other side of valve ;; finishing on valve closure

Good, beautiful , super band
When you put it on, it's a bit tricky, the first time you don't know what's happening, it's so much nicer. I put it on in winter at 5 bar and if I want to go for a bit through the dry forest or a shell path, no problem, also much better grip on the concrete cycle paths are now all leaves. Also in the villages here there are all bricks are if it rains a bit Slippery but no problem.
