Review on Buy Resolute 42 x 700 TCS Light/Fast Rolling 120tpi Dual DNA SG2 Tire, Black by Daniel Jenkins

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bloated and sold.

These tires leak so much sealant through the sidewalls I don't understand how WTB can claim they are tubeless. It's like there are hundreds of micro-holes in the tire's sidewall, on each side they bubble up all the time and never seal. They lose all pressure after a few hours of inactivity. To top it off, these puncture-resistant sg2 models literally took a puncture on my first ride of under 5 miles on my local trails where I've never punctured any other tire brand. The hole was tiny and the sealant didn't plug it. A dynamic connector was needed, and even then it will not connect. I've been riding tubeless tires for years and this is the most cumbersome tubeless ready tire I've ever seen. The only reason I give it 2 stars is because the grip is amazing until you get pierced. Bring a hand pump because it loses so much air that you have to fill it up mid-ride. I'll give them some more time to seal properly over the next few weeks and if so I'll update my review. In this form I can not recommend it after first impressions.

Pros
  • Bike type: Cyclocross bike
