Schwalbe One Evo OSC V-Guard 25-622 folding
With its Schwalbe One the company is underlining its major objectives in cycle racing. “Schwalbe One is the fastest and at the same time the most reliable competition tire we have ever produced,” emphasized Holger Jahn, Managing Director Technology at Schwalbe.
A completely new compound, the OneStar triple compound, was developed specifically for extremely low rolling resistance. “In recent years there have been major developments in compounding, without which such rubber mixes would not have been possible. The new triple compound is based on special polymers that have only recently become available,” reported Markus Hachmeyer, Senior Product Manager. As a result Schwalbe has achieved a great improvement in the familiar trade-off between rolling resistance, wet adhesion and durability. The technicians have subjected innumerable rubber mixes and more than 50 prototypes to laboratory tests and practical trials.
However, the OneStar triple compound is not only faster, it also delivers the good grip we all appreciate – and it is also more cut-resistant than previous compounds. This makes the tire significantly more puncture-resistant. The tread contour with its more robust tire shoulder also helps to make the tire more reliable.
With its 205 grams the new racing tire, due to a slight increase in the amount of material used, is just a little heavier than the Ultremo ZX, which is still available. But the technical benefits more than offset this supposed disadvantage: thanks to the innovative triple compound, rolling resistance is minimized. At the same time the compound, the V-Guard and the new tread pattern make the tire extremely puncture-resistant.
