Going Tubeless

9 years ago

First tubeless tires for me. Mounted on an Easton tubeless wheelset. The tires mounted easily and inflated perfectly with a Stan's valve inserted into the rim. Did not use any sealant. Did find that the tires has small pinhole leaks that caused the tires to loose a small amount of pressure over a few days time. Remounted the tires on an Easton non-tubeless wheel set using one layer of Stan's tape and approx 3 oz of Stan's no tube tire sealant and the tires are holding air better. Still need to top off every 4 or 5 days. Have about 500 miles on the set now on all gravel roads around the Gunflint Trail in northern Minnesota with no flats and good traction. The tires measure right at 36mm mounted on the 22mm wide Easton Rims.

transcontinental tire

rode from washington dc to lopez island this summer. approximately 3400 miles in 45 days. averaged 74 miles per day. had one flat on the rear tire just outside of bismarck,nd. small piece of wire from a retread caused the flat. they were tubeless so in a way surprised stan's sealant did not seal the small hole. anyway, just fixed the tire with an inner tube. did replace the inner tube back to a tubeless tire. no further problems with the tires. i rode a niner RLT 9 steel gravel bike and and the tires worked fabulous on all kinds of road conditions.

Narrow, heavy, burpy and wobbly.

6 years ago

I must have gotten a bad batch because these can’t be the tires that people rave about? First off the tires only measured 33-34mm on my HED Belgium + rims, I’ve never had a tire measure less than listed size, they usually end up 2-3mm larger due to the rims wide profile. Strike 1. Not that it’s a big deal but the tires weighed 530g and 510g which is a far cry from their advertised weight, especially for what ends up being such a narrow tire. Strike 2. The tires easily set up tubeless, maybe too much so as whenever I hit a root or rock they’d burp air and sealant causing me to have to top off mid-ride. I was running higher than my typical pressure on account of the narrower profile so they weren’t under inflated, my guess is that the overly stiff sidewalls caused the bead to separate on impacts. Strike 3. Lastly, one tire had a pretty bad wobble due to the tread not being set correctly on the casing. Strike 4? Anyway, I promptly returned these and will be going back to my Panaracer Gravelking SK which are ½ the price and twice the quality. The only positive thing I can say about these is that the tread rolls nicely and had decent traction. I can’t say how they’d fare longterm as I only put 13 miles on them and immediately knew they weren’t for me. I could forgive any single issue listed above but can’t overlook so many faults in a single product. Do not recommend.

Decent tire

6 years ago

Now have several hundred miles on gravely/sandy hard-pack and pavement and like the tires. They mounted easily, tubeless, on Hed Ardennes wheels and perform well at 40-ish PSI under my 148 lbs. Subjective, I know, but they feel fast and are objectively faster than the 40mm tires they replaced. I don’t miss the 4mm in ride or handling and I sort of wish I’d gone 32mm. No flats or sidewall damage, but the local geology seems to make roundish rocks.

Excellent Tire - 2 out of 3 Wobbled

3 years ago

Have put about 6000 miles on 3 Clement X'plor MSO 36 mm and all have worn well. Ran them tubeless on Easton tubeless rims. Donnelly rebranded the Clement tire as Donnelly and two out of 3 tires I purchased had severe side wobbles of about 1/8 in and I had to return them. One tire was perfect. I remounted each of the bad tires 3 times with no improvement in side to side wobble. Love the tire just wish Donnelly had better quality control.

Good tire, needs better QC

6 years ago

I'll start with the bad. The first one of these I bought had a wicked ~3/8" wobble in it. I tried remounting it, thought maybe I was nuts and had knocked my wheel way out of true... nope, big ol' lateral hop. I replaced it, and the new one, and my 40mm front, are both nice and straight. Treadwear on gravel seems pretty good. I put about 300 miles on it as a rear tire, including 185+ miles riding the C&O towpath with gear, with very little wear. But, a 20 mile pavement ride this weekend with just me on it put a real hurting on the tread, as in it's probably missing 25% of its usable tread now, with maybe 450 miles on it. Otherwise I have no complaints. I'm not a connoisseur of tire performance, but they work OK on pavement, great on packed gravel, and OK on looser gravel or light mud. These are my first tubeless tires and I don't care to mess with swapping sealant filled tires around, so I really like the jack of all trades-ness. All 3 went on pretty easily and seated right up even with my mini frame pump, at least on my DT R470 rims. I filled them with OS Endurance, and after needing to be topped up every couple days for the first week or so, they're holding air acceptably for about 10 days now. The 36mm is a little narrow on my (20mm inside) rims, which is fine by me as my frame is a little lacking in clearance, but oddly enough my front 40mm on the same rim is about dead on. Unless I burn the rest of the tread off this one too fast, I'll definitely be buying another of the same when the time comes.

Helps "grab" the gravel.

8 years ago

LOVE these tires, gravel bike came with some Clement X'Plor USH 33's and they were nice as far as getting the speed. However, I'm new to "gravel grinding" and was having some issues with slippage on tight turns. Like the tread pattern and the extra width makes handling my bike easier :)

Problem tire

4 years ago

Rode "OK" but the tire was not concentric to the rim (not a mounting problem) then, after less then 200 miles the tread separated from the casing down the middle, exposing the yellow belt. Emailed and called Donnelly, they refused to replace the defective tire...

Not enough rides to tell much

Split a sidewall on my third gravel ride on this tire. Before that, I liked the way it rode.
