Schwalbe one tyres.

I will add them to my cycle kit tomorrow..hopefully. I am sure a couple will make minimal difference to the weight of the already excessive kit I carry already. As if I haven't said that before.

Don’t forget a pair of snips to remove the cable ties, if you use them to assist fitting tyres

How much kit am I supposed to carry?! Okay on the electric bike but my Santos's are getting overly heavy before i fill the panniers with firewood!
PS I rarely cycle without a penknife.....rarely!

I have just fitted two of these tyres to some Alex rims.It took less than an hour with one tyre lever.

Thanks I'll have to practise with my new Var tyre levers.

Penknife will do it, as long as it doesn’t slip and stab your tyre and new tube it will need to be very sharp though! and there is a huge risk of sticking it straight through the tyre, I’ve used a Stanley knife at work to cut tie wraps, it can take a bit of force to cut them off

wow i've never found ones even remotely difficult to fit and I have five bikes and eleven sets of wheels with them are you sure you dont have a duff set?

I can put them on easy no levers needed
