One of the best things about.
Schwalbe rock razor review.
Schwalbe introduced two new gravity oriented tires at interbike 2013 the aggressive magic mary and semi slick rock razor.
The rock razor is schwalbe s offering in this category.
Low rolling resistance and minimal weight.
No doubt half of you will stop reading as soon as we mention that it was developed from enduro racing but bear with me.
Schwalbe s rock razor is an important tire.
There are various rock razors including a sub 700g snakeskin version but the super gravity uses the latest evolution of schwalbe s four ply sidewall two ply under tread gravity carcass.
The rock razor needs a confident and precise pilot and it certainly benefits from being paired with an aggressive front tire like the schwalbe hans dampf to increase overall braking traction.
The new schwalbe mountain bike tires in review.
Fast flat studs in the tread center good cornering grip with sturdy lugs on the tire shoulders super gravity version.
The schwalbe rock razor we ve previously rated as a best back tyre now rocks schwalbe s new addix compounds.
Schwalbe also offer a number of condition specific tires like the dirty dan for muddy terrain and rock razor for extremely dry conditions.
Used on very fast and dry trails.
Addix soft orange punctureproof with apex with extreme lateral stability for a dynamic ride.
Available in 26 inch 650b and 29 inch sizes the 2 35 inch wide rock razor is offered with the trail bike oriented snakeskin casing or the heavier duty super gravity casing found under schwalbe s world cup downhill and enduro world series racers.
With its massive shoulder knobs the aggressive tread pattern.
Less experienced or more cautious riders may feel a lack of braking control with this tire.
Superb fast rolling rear tyre experience.
The magic mary with its big beefy knobs is a descendent of the muddy mary but shares some design characteristics right between the muddy mary and dirty dan helping it thrive in loose conditions.
Schwalbe rock razor tyre review.
Magic mary is a favourite amongst gravity riders.
The launch of the legendary schwalbe marathon tire in 1983 with its unprecedented mileage was met with great enthusiasm by keen cyclists bicycle dealers and trade journalists.
Primarily for the use on the rear wheel.
