I read Reddit reviews about this tire being tight but decided to try since they’re highly regarded for rolling resistance. Mistake. Couldn’t get even one onto Bontrager carbon rim using both tire levers. If I took them to the shop and had them put on, I’d be screwed if I ever got a flat. Had to use both tire levers to get enough gap to pry the 2nd side off the rim. Ridiculously tight.
The Gravel King Slick tires in 700C X 40mm are super smooth, lightweight and cushy. They are perfect for touring and commuting. Highly recommended.
