Cheap decent on tires

I am happy with the price and quality of these tires. The tan goes almost perfectly with maxxis. Ideal for bikepacking. I hope they will make x50 wider soon.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Disappear

Smaller than described

Bought 700x40c to replace 700x38c as my bike maxed out at 40c. These tires are much smaller than 40c. They look more like 32s. upset.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not sure

Very good gravel tire

These are pretty amazing tyres. They work well without cameras and have excellent traction. I use them on a gravel bike with a 700c x 35 rim. They work well and I have no issues with frame clearance, even with V-brakes.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Almost never

Great tires for dirt and gravel

They seem a bit smaller than my other 40c tires, more like a 38c as long as they still rip it up. They might not be the best for street driving, but they're not designed for that either. Driven 300 km at the moment and no problems.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • working speed

Sturdy fast rolling too small

Bought as 700x50 is the best fit for my bike unfortunately they fit well for it. One is 47mm, the other 46mm on a 23mm rim. They seem to roll well despite being relatively heavy. Can't comment on durability yet as I just installed it.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Great spare tire.

I got this for my 2020 Schwinn MTB which came with some Continental X-King MTB tires. Compared to the much shorter Continental, these American Classic gravel tires are better for my riding, which is mostly paved bike paths and paved dirt roads. The Stage 5S flat guards are reassuring, cornering stability is good and I like that they're tubeless-ready. ๐Ÿ‘

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Lots of things

Good tires but too small

I've only driven them once for almost 50 miles on gravel and overall I like them. They connected well and drove normally. The only disappointment is that they are smaller, I went for 700*40 and they only measure 36. I'm not sure what my rim width is but it's a newer rim so it's quite wide. The 700*40 maxi tires I replaced were 40mm wide, as was the Michelin Power Gravels kit. I wish I had ordered 700*50 provided they are 10% undersize. I think I will have a gap.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • weak

More durable than expected, the driving experience is very good.

I have driven over 200 miles on these tires. A good feeling on the go. I used to drive byways and they are like a road which is good. I put them orange seal (tubeless ready) and at 220lbs I run them at 35psi. I drove on different gravel tracks, but today was a big test. I rode 40 miles on the back of Mount Lemmon in Tucson, Arizona. these gravel roads are sometimes good and sometimes not so good. Big ruts, big rocks (5 inches) all over the road. I decided to give it my all and ride every track,

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Good but not great
