TLE-tires are specifically designed for Tubeless use without a tube, and therefore offer by far the best performance. Confusion is not possible: All Pro One road tires are clearly labelled as "TLE" or "TUBE ONLY" tires.
DEVELOPMENT
During the intensive cooperation with top riders and junior athletes, Schwalbe discovered that road racing cyclists seek a tire that not only suits high speeds and rolls easily, but also offers maximum suppleness or ‚souplesse‘. A tire that rides like a tubular tire. A tire that swiftly and accurately responds to a cyclist’s individual riding style and provides sensitive feedback at all times. A tire with “life”. Logically, the extra suppleness of the Souplesse offers another advantage beside the unique feel. Cyclists do not fatigue as quickly. Consequently, this allows higher performance for longer periods of time. Of course, this can be scientifi cally proven in a test situation, but cyclists will be able to feel the difference themselves on the bike.
NOTHING LIKE IT BEFORE
A totally new feel. Right from the start. The new Schwalbe Pro One is not just another development step from the status quo, but a completely new solution. Inorder to create a unique product, new avenues needed to be explored.
THE CHALLENGE
The goal was to develop a fast, light-weight and safe tire, with the additional feature of maximum souplesse. A tire which sets new benchmarks.
TECHNOLOGY
SOUPLESSE CARCASS-CONSTRUCTION
The turn-up construction integrates Tubeless Easy technology in the most progressive way possible. This is what makes the tire so supple and comfortable. Riding this tire feels just like the velvety motion of a classic tubular tire.
V-GUARD PUNCTURE PROTECTION BELT
The liner is made of a specifi cally developed high-tech polymer fi bre that is also used for bullet-proof and anti-stab vests. It provides excellent protection from cuts and punctures, and at the same time, it is extremely light-weight. Neither rolling resistance nor tire suppleness are compromised by the V-guard. A 14 mm wide belt protects the total tread area, and thus provides an extremely high level of puncture protection. In addition, a triple layer side wall reliably protects against cuts.
ADDIX RACE COMPOUND
Completely new formulation. Addix Race is a multi-compound made of the most innovative and highest quality proven polymers. Because silica fi ller contents were increased signifi cantly, the mixing process also had to be fi ne-tuned. Various specifi c blends are used for the centre and sides respectively. This increases the grip during cornering without compromising rolling resistance or durability.
MANUFACTURING
To ensure consistent high quality in our tires, we have put a strong emphasis on optimizing our manufacturing process. We have made large investments into innovative machinery and the training of our employees. The greatest precision and tightest production tolerances are essential when making a product of the highest standard. For Tubeless tires especially this is the only way to ensure simple mounting , as well as a long life.
FULLY AUTOMATED COMPOUND MIXING STATION
The state of the art mixing station features real time computer controlled assurance of the correct mixture ratio. This guarantees a consistently high quality rubber mix.
TIRE ASSEMBLY MACHINES
Tire assembly is still a job that requires human, manual labour and knowledge. New semi-automatic machines support our experienced and well trained specialists.
EXTRUDER PLANT
The innovative plant operates with extreme precision, ensuring an even thickness of tire tread. This effectively prevents variations in weight.
Included in delivery: 1 tire
Weight supplement: manufacturer information
Note: Tubeless Ready tires require tubeless compatible rims/wheels, tubeless valves, tubeless rim tape and sealing fluid for tubeless mounting. Sealant fluid is not required for tubeless UST tires, but is recommended for increased puncture protection. Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
