Review on 🚲 Enhanced Riding Experience with Panaracer Swoop Folding Bead Tire by Victor Kakaruk

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best tread pattern for a 26 " mountain bike tire!

I've been using these tires for 3 months now and I love them! I installed the front in the direction shown but I installed the rear for better grip so it really crashes and clings to my climbs so braking is a bit off but most of the stopping power comes from the front wheel so it was a small compromise for a huge increase in grip when climbing. The Panaracer website doesn't show the size I bought (26 x 2.25) as one of their listings, the packaging looked real and the tires looked real so I'm still not sure what to do, because the size is not listed on the panaracer website i guess only time will tell if they pass the test of hard use it took me a while to believe how hard i put this tire in a curve, but now I let it rip and I'm amazed at how well it holds up. . Did I mention how good the traction is when climbing!?! Unless I plan on upgrading to a 27.5 wheel I would buy a different set for the future. Now I have to see if they make that tread pattern on the 27.5!

Pros
  • ETRTO: 52-559
Cons
  • Minor issues
