WTBVenture Gravel Bike Tire, Tubeless Ready Folding Bead, Lightweight Fast Folling, 60tpi, Dual DNA Compound, Ideal for Gravel and Adventure, Available with Black or Tan Sidewalls

Bought this fires for my bike long time ago. Liked it very much. 3 weeks ago I've got a nail which went through the front side and side wall as well. Couldn't do anything because the side hole was about 1cm in diameter. Anyway I've had enough on it and it was time to change it. I Bought a new one on March 5th and March 13th I got a side wall cut. Brand new Tyre... 😞 can't do anything because that cut is pretty big and long. Nevertheless, I ordered the same one because I ding see anything even close to venture from different brands out there. Officials from wtb couldn't help me of course. That's said.I understand they don't have to, but I'm not ready to spend 60$ every week. Will see how long another one will last.

The issue I have is that they will not hold air, i've setup plenty of wheels tubeless before but these are leaking from the sidewall and no amount of tire sealant seems to help. The issue affects both the front and back tire.

700c x50mm is huge. Make sure your bike has wide enough forks to support these. I ride a 2018 Kona Rove and these fit with ease.With the larger tires, your 700c's overall width become roughly 29". With larger tire diameter it will feel like your floating compared to smaller such as a 700c x35mm.These WTB tires have a all-terrain tread and a very wide tread pattern, I ran them at 50PSI while climbing a 9% graded dirt path. Over the 1.5km, I only had slips twice. These grip very great even at near-full pressure.On roads, it feels a little shaky above 45kph at 50psi. But 20-30kph is very dreamy. This may just be me, so take this as a grain of salt.I would buy again if I needed more in a heartbeat!

Overall solid tire! Here’s some of my pros/cons after 1,872 miles (according to Strava). I previously used Gravelking SK’s. These are better, more supple, more grip, more classic looking. I run these at 36f/41r (I’m 6”1’ ~175) and have had no issues on Iowa gravel.Pros:-Easy setup-700x40’s measure just a hair over 40mm.-Very supple-Zero flats (so far)-Good cornering grip-Not annoying on pavementCons:-Don’t shed mud well-Slippery at times on very dry gravelI’d definitely recommend these. I will probably try the Resolute 42 next. A little wider, lighter and more grip, so why not?

I pay for amazon prime? It took a week for this set of tires to get here. I thought prime gave you priority in shipping. I guess not? I understand about COV-19 but the tires only traveled 200 miles maybe from prime to me. Tires are actually amazingly supple very quiet on road. I would recommend these tires. 5star on tires. 3 on Amazon Prime!

I wanted a higher volume tire for my single speed. After looking around and reading reviews out the wahzoo, I landed on the WTB Venture in 700x50. After about 500 miles, I LOVE THEM. They are as supple as you can ever imagine at 30 psi (preference).I had a little sealant seep through the sidewalls at first but that dried up and sealed fine. They came rolled up as always so I laid them out in the sun for a few days and that helped them seat perfectly.The tread is perfect for hardpacked and also larger loose gravel. The only thing I don't know about is mud. But I don't ride in mud if I can help it :). They will throw up little tiny pieces of gravel from the tread, like the Panaracer gravel king does, but who cares!Overall, these tires will not disappoint. I am ordering another pair in 700x40 for my geared gravel bike$54 per tire is a good deal for a gravel tire nowadays

I was previously riding on a WTB Horizon Road Plus and got several flats and then a sidewalk blow out. This tire is a little beefier and has some small tread. So far it if performing well in gravel but has a little more rolling resistance on pavement. If you're just ride mostly pavement, stick with the Horizon tire.

I rarely leave reviews on items I buy through Amazon but I honestly think there is a potential safety issue with these bike tires. If you ride at lower speeds (15 mph or less) you probably won't have a problem, but you will experience a rough ride. I bought 2 tires to replace the worn out Bontrager tires on my Trek bike. Both new TCS tires were out of round by as much as 3/16". I ride a lot of hills and it's not unusual to hit speeds of 38 to 40 mph (tail wind helps) going down hill. At speeds like that you need ROUND tires. There is a reason why the invention of the WHEEL (round by definition) was so important to mankind. So, I am returning the 2 tires. And so I can keep riding I went to my local bike shop and bought 2 new Bontrager replacement tires (for LESS money) and they run as close to perfectly round as possible. Enjoy the wind in your face...

I like the price and, of course, the shipping was excellent. I just cant wait until the snow goes away to install them.
