FAQs

Is this tyre suitable for daily commuting?

While durable, this is a race-focused tyre. For daily commuting, you may prefer a tyre with a thicker tread compound.

Can I use this with inner tubes?

Yes, it is compatible with inner tubes, though a tubeless setup is recommended to fully realize the performance benefits.

What is the primary benefit of the V-Guard?

The V-Guard is a specialized fabric layer that provides high cut resistance without adding the heavy weight of traditional puncture-protection belts.

Is it compatible with all rims?

It is designed to be compatible with most tubeless-ready rims, but always ensure your rim width matches the 1.3-inch sizing.

How often should I check the sealant?

It is recommended to check and top off your tubeless sealant every 3 to 6 months depending on local climate conditions.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty seating the tubeless bead

Apply a small amount of soapy water to the tyre bead or use an air compressor to provide a quick surge of pressure.

Sealant leaking from sidewalls

Ensure you are using a compatible, ammonia-free tubeless sealant and check for any debris that may have caused a minor puncture.

Excessive vibration on hard surfaces

Check that the tyre is not over-inflated, as the supple carcass works best at slightly lower pressures.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cornering traction for technical courses
  • Extremely low rolling resistance for competitive racing
  • Lightweight construction due to the Super Race carcass
  • Reliable puncture protection via the V-Guard insert
  • Professional-grade performance validated by top athletes

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty, extreme terrain gravel use
  • Requires proper tubeless setup for maximum performance
  • Can be more sensitive to pressure changes than touring tyres

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, the X-One R must be set up tubeless, which maximizes the benefits of the V-Guard and Souplesse carcass. Ensure your rim tape is properly seated and use a high-quality sealant for the best puncture defense. When mounting, ensure the bead is fully seated in the center channel of the rim before inflating. To maintain the tyre, clean off excess mud after wet rides using only water and a soft brush; avoid harsh chemicals or high-pressure washers, which can degrade the supple construction over time.
