All New Schwalbe Albert Radial MTB Tire - Truly Revolutionary Rubber

#mtb #loamwolf

Schwalbe Radial is one of the most exciting tire developments we’ve seen in our time on a mountain bike. Even more importantly, it’s one of the most pronounced improvements we’ve experienced on the trails in recent years. Let’s dive into what Radial is, and how it’s performed in our preliminary testing.

everytime something new and radical happens in MTB it's something that has been in moto for decades.

[TroyHudson-md]

The hook up of this new tire is insane. I rode them about a month ago.

[edwardgh]

Roxy’s ride and inspire, on YouTube, gave a very positive review on these tires. Learning to ride better with her courses.

[GarthFlint-ncvj]

I would like to know the tire pressures that were used by the riders.

[jokermtb]

"Can't tell you the angle" - But your graphic can at 2:25 ! The radial ply is set at 89.34 degrees (vs 122.15 for a standard tire bias ply)

[pkvillager]

Sounds good, Id have to wait to see direct comparison to Continental Kryptotals since their rolling resistance and grip are outstanding.

[bfranco]

I’ve had a few set of Pirellis on my Ducatis that are radial casings. They definitely had great road feel and a very supple casing. So I’m sure that translates into mtb tires as well.

[ShadLife]

These tires on Berd Spoke wheels seem like it would be a dream setup!

[veersr]

Isn't that basically still a diagonal construction with a variation in the angle? It's still crossed. It's an interesting idea, but also looks like a misnomer. Makes me worry that the marketing people at Schwalbe have more of a say than the engineers.

Magic Marys up front have been pretty sweet so far in sandy and tacky conditions. Need to move up to Ultra soft compound and wouldnt mind trying out what radials can do for me. My Big Betty on the rear is okay, but i miss my Maxxis Aggressor.

First thing that comes to mind is testing uphill traction in techy climbs through rocky sections. I got a lot of that where I live (literal boulder fields), so more bite is always welcome.

[mrvwbug]

Interesting, would want to ride a set before ditching my Krpytotals for them, Then comes the obvious head to head vs the Kryptotal and Assegai.

SCOOP at 9:20 !!! Amaury Pierron won Val de Sol (and Les Gets) on a prototype radial Dirty Dan!?!?!? Now we know how he was able to eat seconds off the clock, compared to his other competitors - it was those radial tires

[mrfumetsu]

These came on my new Heckler SL. Pretty impressed with them after being on Maxxis my whole life.

[websherp]

So you made a softer tire for a given pressure. This removes my need to for inserts (ramping support and to a lesser degree rim protection) how?

[HelplmAlive]

Of course this comes out the day after I order a set of Tacky Chans. Will be trying the Albert as a front tire eventually.

[notimestop]

Those nailed tools on the wall...so funny! 😀

[matthias]

Hey loam wolf team ✌️You guys make really awesome reviews!!! Chapeau 🤙🤙🤙

[SunsPSD]

Just ordered a set for my MX Relay. I did try the Tacky Chan up front last week and it wasn't working for me. It felt too small and like it was pinging everywhere (dry loose rocky terrain) although the few spots of loam I hit it hooked up amazing on the edge.

[Dude_itsJustin]

These look noice😍 can’t wait to try em out sometime and feel the difference compared to the Schwalbes I’m running now (which I f*ckin love so far)
