I've recently been trying some of Schwalbe's cross country tyres in the 29er wheel size. I find Schwalbe's tyre range often confusing and the real world weights of the various tyres are all over the place. I'll try to keep the following table up-to-date as I go through various tyres.
Tyre | Sidewall | Series | Compound | Width | Claimed weight (g) | Actual weight (g) | Model no. | Ride impression |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Schwalbe Rocket Ron | Liteskin | Performance | Addix | 2.1 | 535g | 540g | 11600389.02 | |
Schwalbe Racing Ralph | Liteskin | Performance | Addix | 2.1 | 680g | 752g | 11601040 | |
Schwalbe Nobby Nic | Liteskin | Performance | Addix | 2.25 | 790g | 858g | 11601034 | |
Schwalbe Racing Ralph | Twinskin TLR | Performance | Addix | 2.25 | 735g | 838g | 11601114 | Fast rolling but stupidly heavy for an XC rear tyre |
