Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE 700c Road Tire (HS493)

Have been riding the Pirelli P Zero Race tubeless tires for couple of years. Was really pleased with them, but last set were done at 2,000 miles and decided to try the Schwalbe Pro ONE TLE since it was on sale and reviews were good. WOW! They were indeed easy to set up. I'm a tubeless novice, but like to set my own stuff up, and these tires made it easy. Got them to seat with a standard floor pump no problem. On first ride, right away they felt really good on the road - hard to explain how smooth and quick they felt. Have ridden a couple hundred miles in the first two weeks, from remote mountain roads to rough city pavement, and I'm still surprised how great they feel. I ride 30c tires at about 65 psi and they're like butter, but not in a slow way. We shall see how they wear, but so far I'm really happy with them!

This is my "go to" tire for all my 3 tubeless road bikes. HOWEVER, be careful that you order the "Pro" version. BikeTiresDirect also sells the Schwalbe ONE TLE 700c Road Tire (notice it's missing the "Pro" for a cheaper price, but the "Pro" version is better made and gets more miles.

Even though they are expensive (note BikeTiresDirect has frequent sales) this is my top pick for a quality road tubeless tire. I bought a new bike that had a competitor's tubeless tire mounted, and although they worked fine, I put the venerable Schwalbe Pro One TLE when those OEM tires wore out and never looked back. What I really like is along with a good Orange sealant, they hold air better than any tube tire I've ever used. And because of lower riding pressure, they are ultra comfortable and I get 3,500 miles on a pair.

The pro ones are my favorite road tire. I have yet to get a puncture. I find them way easier to mount than the GP competitor. My first pro one TLE had a knot in the sidewall. I emailed customer support for biketiresdirect with attached pictures. I was worried as it was going on my front wheel. Customer service sent me a new one (no haggling involved). Customer service was excellent and I felt like they valued my safety as well. Second tire was perfect.

This is my favorite tire. I use them on my Giant TCR (Zipp 303 Firecrest wheels) and Trek Checkpoint 6 (Aeolus wheel).

They mount easily and seating is no problem. Air retention is good, as i ride at 60 psi and only add air every 3rd ride. I have used 28, 30, and 32 mm tires. I prefer the 32�s as i dont detect any change in speed and ride nicely over chip and seal roads.

I hesitate to give this such a great review, as they can be difficult to order ( out of stock) and i don�t wish any more competition for them.

It is a premium tire that is perfect for the road: quiet, tubeless comfort, and easy to mount. Nice to have it as unidirectional and to have the wear indicators. After 500 miles, they look very good and there have been no issues at all. I would not be concerned over taking these on light packed gravel as the ones I installed are 38mm wide.

These things are sweet,

They retain air like no-ones business, run fast and are comfortable. Excellent grip,

Super easy install

Will buy again

This is my second pair of tires. The first one was the 30s and now I have the 28s. The difference is with the 30s you feel a little bit more comfortable and the corners are smoother. With the 28s the bike feels a bit faster. It�s funny because I had small punctures on both sets on my first rides. However, sealant did the job and I was lucky to rescue each tire and get more miles on it. They are expensive for that type of tire in my opinion. Have fun out there!

This is a pretty good tire but it suffers from how prone to cuts and subsequent flats that occur. Of course, this is all road debris dependent but if you ride anywhere that you encounter glass then you might be fixing flats pretty often.

Performance wise, these are pretty great - grippy, light, supple. Everything you'd want in a tire. However for me, I need something a little more cut resistant.

Everything for a bike is expensive so that is why I gave it 4 stars. However, I have been very happy. I am a 220 pound cyclist that rides 3000 miles per year at an average of 18-19 MPH solo. I have been very happy with my choice going tubeless. I currently have 1431 miles on this set of tires (25 mm width). I previously have run Conti 5000 with tubes. I ran the same brand for 5 years. I quickly realized the benefits of tubeless. I also realized that the Pro One tires are very reliable and quick. These are also the longest lasting tires I have ever owned. I did upgrade to a wider rim width and that may have made a difference in wear. Either way I really like these and will be replacing the rear tire in a month or so.

Mounted on 622x22 Astral Wanderlust hooked alloy rims. I weigh 140 lbs. and pump these to 50 psi front, 55 rear about twice per week. Pressures tend to fall off a tad over 3-4 days without any noticeable change in riding feel. Typical ride would be around 30 miles, often with a few miles of graded gravel road.

On initial inflation they were just under 33mm width. After a week of breakin they had stretched to about 34.5mm and they are now stabile at this width.

They mounted easily, but it was a cold overcast day and one of the tires was stubborn when trying to set the beads using my compressor. So I warmed the rim with the tire under hot running water in the laundry sink and then the beads popped right into place. Normally I'd warm my tires in bright sun before mounting.

These replaced a set of Continental GP 5000 TL 32mm, which I purchased last year when the Schwalbe Pro One TLE in 32mm was backordered and the 34mm yet to be released. Those Conti 5000 TL were the hardest tires to mount I have ever encountered (I use devices like the Kool Stop Tire Jack and even better Bikehand tool + the Schwalbe levers which lock into the rim hook), reason enough to avoid the Conti 5000 TL.

Over 9 years I have ridden exclusively on road tubeless covering 40,000 miles, 5 frames, many wheelsets. In 2013 I started with the Bontrager R4 but it was plagued with blistering under the tread from air penetration of the structure, despite latex sealant. Next I wore out many 28mm Hutchinson Sector tires until the Schwalbe One was released in 2014. I've ridden the One, Pro One, and now Pro One TLE in sizes from 25mm to the current 34mm. I've been pleased with all (and with the G-One Speed in various sizes).

In 9 years with tubeless and all the riding, every puncture has sealed with Stan's or Orange Seal. Only 3x have I needed to pump a tire back to riding pressure on the roadside. Tires are now my most reliable component. I've had failures of cables, derailleurs, chains, freewheels, spokes, and a frame, but never a flat. Remember to refresh your sealant regularly and often.

I needed new tires to replace some Bontrager tires on my Domane that blistered at 1000 miles. I wasn't going to go back to those. Purchased these based on reviews. Had them in two days and have about 1000 miles on them. Nice ride and no issues at 1000 miles.

I'm using this on my cross/gravel/touring bike as a road set. I went with 34 wide and had challenges getting them to set on HED Ardennes + rim brake rims with an internal width of 21. Wound up putting a tube in them for a couple days to stretch them out so they would be closer to the rim and that did the trick. Compressor and surge pump w/ soap initially didn't do the trick. Worked great on a century yesterday until I picked up some items to weigh down my pannies and the rear tire got a little squishy at max inflation. Not gonna fault them for this though but worth mentioning if you're considering the same. Look and roll great and I continue to be impressed with Schwable tires.

Like any other thing in life you buy, you get what you pay for. These are the top of the line, premium tubeless road tire and what you will get is a smooth, controlled ride with excellent puncture protection. Orange Seal Endurance sealant is what I use and I have nothing but a good experience with the combination. Be aware, it might take a little time for the casing to really seal up good upon initial installation, but once it seals pressure loss is minimal between weekly rides.

Set this 28mm tire up tubeless at 65 PSI on Bontrager Paradigm Comp 25 rims and it is comfortable and fast. I weigh ~215 lbs. and push pretty hard on recreational rides, often hitting 25+ mph. No issues with mounting and it has great puncture resistance. My go-to tire in the future.

We have been using these tires set up tubeless for several years now with overall great results. A few times, due to lack of availability, we had to use other brands (Goodyear and Pirelli) which were both not good experiences for many reasons. These tires set up easily, offer good grip year round, and last have routinely lasted several months at a time with mileage ranging between 3-5K per year. Barring the rare significant cuts caused by larger road debris, durability has been wonderful. Even all but one of those larger holes were remedied by a tire plug or sealant only and lasted in normal use just fine.

I purchased these tires in the 30mm width for use on my gravel bike. I wanted a tire for exploring the countryside of Indiana. I was interested in something that was efficient and fast like a road tire, and yet wide enough to work decently in winter gravel. Winter gravel here tends to be fairly smooth. These tires are spot on. Fast enough to grab a recent KOM on the pavement, and still wide enough for confident riding on gravel. Very pleased with them.

These tires have been reliable so far, more reliable than the Hutchison Sector 28s they replaced. They are definitely not as durable as a Teravail Rampart, but they do roll faster than the Ramparts. I'm 175# and I'm using 30 mm tires on Enve AR rims at 48 psi. Overall, they roll well, are predictable on the downhills, and seem to handle rough roads reasonable well, although I haven't used them on dirt or gravel or roads yet. No punctures after 1500 miles. The wear indicators are gone on the rear tire, so it should probably be replaced. I'll probably wait until I get a puncture. The front tire is still going strong and can probably get another 1000 miles or so out of it.

I have been riding tubeless road for 5 years now, and tried a lot of different tires. These fit, wear and hold air the best of any. Very consistent in sizing as well.

Have about 400 miles on the tire and noticed and bulge where the casing is joined together. This has created a bump around the circumference of the tire including the tread where it is now worn through to the inner casing. I'm guessing this is where the tire is joined in the build process and it appears to be very poorly done. Now I have a fairly new tire with a hole worn into it.
