We are in the full cyclocross seasonThe gray asphalt has given way to the mud of the dirt roads. The track conditions are very varied, from dry to wet, and as we all know, not all funds are created equal. Schwalbe offers a range of tires from cyclocross ready to cover all needs and weather conditions and land.
X-One Speed
Developed for arid and dry terrain where speed makes the difference. The central part of the tread has low, round blocks that allow the tire to slide easily on the ground.. Support comes from “Multi Rip” side blocks which guarantee exceptional grip when cornering.
They inflate from 2,8 to 4,8 bar. They are available for €59,90.
X-One all-round
Tire version designed to perform on all terrains, from the driest to the wettest and slimiest. The central blocks are slightly more pronounced to offer greater grip when pushing. The lateral ones, however, are more numerous to prevent the bike from slipping when cornering..
This version also has inflation limits between 2,8 and 4,8 bar. The price is the same as the X-One Speed version, i.e. 59,90 euros.
X-One Bite
The profile is more aggressive and racing, ready to scratch and bite the mud even in the most difficult conditionsThey are also suitable for wilder trails, such as those in the woods. The studs are equally pronounced in both the central and lateral parts. As a testament to the professionalism of the tires X-One Bite are only available in the “Tubeless Easy” version.
Its maximum performance is achieved by mounting it on the front wheel in combination with the X-One Allround or Speed tire on the rear wheel. Inflation pressure always between 2,8 and 4,8 bar. The price is 59,90 euros.
CX Pro
Version suitable for professional riders and those seeking maximum performance (opening photo). The design is classic, with central “v” shaped pieces to have a perfect grip when pushingThe lateral ones are instead teardrop-shaped so as to sink better into the mud and allow for greater cornering speed.
The CX Pro should be inflated between 4,0 and 6,5 bar. The price is €25,90.
