Perfect tire for our activities reduces the likelihood of picking up a flat from road debris. Hardier material yet looks sleek on the wheels. Highly recommend this tire excellent price for the value.
Mounted these tubeless on Stans Grail rims. Mounted securely without much effort, seated with high-pressure blast pump. At higher pressure (60-65 psi), nice ride on pavement, good grip on turns, seems to roll well. At lower pressure on gravel (35-40 psi), traction good and generally secure on turns, improves comfort on my Kona Jake bike I use for gravel. No flats or damage evident from 500 miles of gravel road single-track riding. Would buy again.
I think the tire was fine but the 38's were just a bit too big and the lugs were rubbing the frame. Ended up swapping with my son who had some 35 gravel tires and that made us both happy.
Little knobbies worries me about rolling resistance but aft some rides they roll super on and off road.
For a tubeless tire, the Rambler did meet expectations. The tire went on the rim entirely too easy and even with using a number of tricks could not get the tire to hold air and seat in a tubeless setup. The rim that was being used has seated a number of tubeless tires in the past and since. Maybe Ill try to use it if I ever decide to run tubes
These were recommended to me by someone I trust, and they have turned out to be great. They are my first tubeless tire, and have performed well. Unfortunately, I have yet to ride them on gravel! I've been using them (38mm) with my 1x cross bike on pavement, and they roll fast and comfortably. Hope to finally get in some gravel next week. Such an improvement over the stock cross tire, and quiet and cushy.
I use this tire front and back for most gravel grinders, handles everything well with plenty of aplomb. Fast enough on tarmac and capable off-road (gnarly single track excluded). I also run this tire on the rear during CX races, fast and grippy for our mostly dry courses in L.A. A solid choice.
This is one of the best tires I tried for gravel. At only 490 gr is really a light weight tire.
Highly recommended.
This tire was the easiest of any tubless tire i have tried.rolls great fast also good on iowa gravel. I would definitely recommend these
Great intermediate tread CX tire. Likely not bad for wet gravel, but have not had a chance to try that use.
Tyres are great on gravel and trail, wet or dry. Easy mounting always a great feature
Easy to mlm install and it is tubeless. It provide good tractiion on dirt road.
Typically run maxxix tires on my mtb, and is my go to choice. So when I saw these for gravel And read a couple of reviews, seemed like a good way to go. Pretty supple and good traction in dry conditions. Havent had them wet and muddy.
Use these tires on my gravel bike and they roll well on hardtop and grip well in dirt
It appears that Maxxis has addressed one of the complaints concerning mounting of the Rambler. Out of the box the rambler has an open U shape making it easier to set up tubeless. I was expecting a struggle but the tire popped on easily in contrast to the first tire from 2016. Thanks Maxxis for the improvement to this already great tire.
After I crashed in a curve with some new IRC Boken tubeless 40c tires I switched to these tires and so far, so good although I'm not hitting the curves as hard either.
Smooth rolling tire on road and hard-pack. Great traction in the corners on gravel.
Rolls well does great in rough as well
The tires respond well in sand and gravel.
I really like this one in the winter. It wears pretty easily on pavement but is excellent for gravel and light mud.
