FANTASTIC!!!!

Ran the 45mm silk shield at the DK200 this weekend. They were fantastic! May have been luck, but I suffered no flats. Easy to mount up. This is a confidence inspiring tire.

Thank you for your feedback.

Pretty Tough Tubeless Tires for Mixed Gravel Rides

These worked well on the Ruby Roubaix. 38s don't float enough on soft, deep gravel, but everywhere else I was rolling well with little resistance at 35 PSI. I got a pinhole leak on the rear late in the ride but never noticed it! Then I saw some sealant on the bottom of the seat bag. You could reduce pressure but the ride was 50% hardpack dirt or good pavement.

Thank you for your feedback.

Swing and a miss

Got these installed new on a Lauf true grit. I've ridden the bike for a week (about 115 miles) and both tires have blown out on totally separate rides, necessitating tubes to get me home (one a top tread puncture that didn't plug with sealant the other a very small sidewall pinch that I didn't notice at all until I looked down and saw sealant oozing out of the tire). I'm not huge (180lbs), didn't ride these over fields of glass, and haven't had any issues with the other gravel tires I've used extensively the last couple years (mostly gravelkings), and while I run Maxxis on my MTB, I think these are the weakest gravel tires I've yet ridden on and won't be looking at Maxxis for gravel in the future. The rubber is very soft and the sidewalls weak from my very limited experience on them. If you stay on pavement, or hardpack, you may be fine, but I fear any rougher gravel may be too much for these in many cases. Playing with pressure, when at about 35-38psi, these were bouncy and slippery on loose gravel, and when deflated and run at 27-32psi, they are mush, but grip a little better as long as you're riding straight. It's unfortunate as I'm having to replace both tires on a brand new bike that wasn't cheap. I would not suggest these tires at all, but of course, ymmv.

Thank you for your feedback.

So far, great tires!

A fair amount of weeping on the sidewalls using Orange Seal but once totally sealed, the tires run very smooth and fast on pavement and dirtgravel. Coming from a 32mm filetread, these in 38 add a lot of comfort. So far only a few hundred miles, been very happy with these tire!

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice gravel tire

While I had them, these were a great tire (the bike they were on was stolen so I only had a couple months of riding on them). They are great on gravel and roll really smoothly on pavement for a high volume gravel tire. They're not super light, but light enough for what they are designed for. I never had any punctures and they sealed up nice and reliably tubeless on Stan's rims. I'll get them again once I get my next gravel setup going.

Thank you for your feedback.

Love These Tires

I'm not a racer, but am instead looking for good safe traction with reliable cornering and grip - These tires up the confidence game so much on my gravel bike. Love them!

Thank you for your feedback.

My Favorite Gravel Tires

I've ridden the Ramblers for several years on hard and loose packed gravel. They have great traction, hold to the surface well, but if they do lose grip they recover quickly. I have periodically tried other great tires, but always go back to the Ramblers.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great tires!

I've now ridden these on two different bike packing trips including the Oregon Outback. They were super easy to seat tubeless and were flawless. Highly recommend.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great gravel tire

I've been running Ramblers for a couple of seasons now. They have proved to be very tough with great traction.

Seem to role fast on gravel or pavement.

On my DT Swiss wheels, they are easy to get on/off and easy to seat.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice tire and really nice looking but didn't quite fit my Trek Domane SL5. It rubbed on the rear dropouts.

I think the tire was fine but the 38's were just a bit too big and the lugs were rubbing the frame. Ended up swapping with my son who had some 35 gravel tires and that made us both happy.

Thank you for your feedback.

Bought for gravel but have been using on pavement - LOVE

These were recommended to me by someone I trust, and they have turned out to be great. They are my first tubeless tire, and have performed well. Unfortunately, I have yet to ride them on gravel! I've been using them (38mm) with my 1x cross bike on pavement, and they roll fast and comfortably. Hope to finally get in some gravel next week. Such an improvement over the stock cross tire, and quiet and cushy.

Thank you for your feedback.
