The new racing tyre is called Schwalbe One. The name alone indicates how significant this new tire is for the bicycle tyre manufacturer based in the German town of Reichshof. It is produced by Schwalbe in a high-end factory set up exclusively for the manufacture of this new top-class tyre. The Schwalbe One has been used RadioShack Leopard Trek, AG2R and FDJ. With its Schwalbe One the company is underlining its major objectives in cycle racing. The Schwalbe One is the fastest and at the same time the most reliable competition tyre we have ever produced. The new triple compound: Minimum rolling resistance, maximum cut resistance A completely new compound, the OneStar triple compound, was developed specifically for extremely low rolling resistance. With Advances in recent years there have been major developments in compounding, without which such rubber mixes would not have been possible. 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 tyre shoulder also helps to make the tyre 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. 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 tyre extremely puncture-resistant. Jens Voigt from Team RadioShack Leopard Trek confirms this fact: "I am very satisfied with the performance of the Schwalbe tyres. I never experienced such wet adhesion, such great cornering with traditional, hand-sewn tubed tires in the past. And I'm thrilled with Schwalbe's persistence and the way the company is putting its heart and soul into constantly improving these racing tyres!" The Schwalbe One factory Schwalbe has set up a dedicated high-end factory within its production plant in Indonesia, specifically for the manufacture of these tyres. Which is a completely new unit where only Schwalbe One tyres are being produced, with fixed vulcanization and production units that are used exclusively for this tyre and where the most skilled workers in the entire Schwalbe plant can be found helping to ensure a consistently high quality and reliability. Handmade Tubular Hand making a tubular tyre is an art in itself. So, because production differs distinctly from the manufacture of regular bicycle tyres, they are exclusively manufactured in a new Schwalbe factory. For each, individual "hand made tubular" a lot of careful craftsmanship is required, so only the most skilled people are employed to construct each tyre and by hand, stitch and glue together each part.

Coarsely woven 20 or 24 EPI carcasses can no longer be found in Schwalbe's range. The much more densely woven 50 EPI carcass is far more puncture resistant and robust. At the same time, the fabric needs less rubber coating and thus has a reduced weight. Naturally, every Active Line tire has a puncture protection belt, a balanced rubber compound, plus a functional and attractive tread design. Simply said: Active Line is reliable, brand quality!

Fit for year-round use, this robustly-built road tyre is made from a Silica rubber compound for a trusted performance as you soar across the pavement and beyond. By reinforcing the rubber, Schwalbe has ensured that the tyre stays protected from road debris and other dangerous obstacles. keeping you puncture-free and poised for whatever the road has in store for you.
Super Gravity For Super Gravity the sidewalls are made up of four layers of carcass material, but there are only two layers underneath the cap, the classic downhill tyre construction has six layers under the cap. This adds unnecessary weight and unfortunately also makes the cap rigid and hard. The whole tyre (not just the sidewalls) is encased in SnakeSkin fabric. Weight is negligible and it helps a lot. In fact, it stabilises and protects while remaining extremely flexible. At the same time it is ideal for Tubeless Ready application. So Super Gravity means the tyre walls are more robust. The cap is more flexible. The tyre is lighter. Or in a single sentence: Downhill ruggedness at Enduro weight. Super Gravity weighed up: When combined with Tubeless Ready riders save an impressive 700 grams in weight in comparison with a conventional downhill tyre.
