WTB ThickSlick Urban Wire Bead Bike Tire, 26", 29" and 700c Sizes, Optional Flat Guard, Black or White, Double Rubber for Longevity, Perfect Commute/Campus Tire, Slick Tread Design, Superior Traction

I bought these to replace gravel tires on my '98 Trek and so far they're amazing! I ride in the city and the streets are full of all types of glass and debris. Because of the thick tread I'm always confident that I won't get a puncture. As far as rolling speed, they're on the heavier side but they still roll fast! Makes sure to pump them up close to 65psi to get full rolling capabilities. Also, I've seen some concern over grip. In my opinion, they actually feel a bit sticky on pavement. Of course you have to be more careful in wet conditions but isn't that with most tires? For my off roaders, these feel great on packed dirt. I did some gravel/single track and these ate up branches and bumps. They aren't the best in loose gravel since they don't have treads to bite in, but they said, they'll still work if youre extremely careful.

These tire are awesome for the urban setting. Provides great grip with minimal rolling resistance. I do not ride in the rain nor offroad, so these slick tires are perfect for me.

Was using a mountain bike to mount it on a stationary bike trainer. The mountain bike tires made so much noise so I decided to get this tire. Ever since I installed this, it feels so smooth, quiet and less rolling resistance. Ride is smooth. The quality of the tire did not disappoint. Lovin' every bit of it. If you use a bike trainer, get this tire to mount on your bike.

My ebike front wheel used to skid when applying full throttle at low speeds with knobby tires. With this, it’s a much smoother ride, and there’s zero skid in launch. The handle bar is harder to turn as a result of more traction.

Durable as all hell and plenty grippy, it is however heavy and lacks the feel of higher end tires.

Very good tire for drifting, the thick casing makes it almost impossible for the tire to go flat

Great for the bike trainer on the winter. Not shedding much material and way quieter/grippier than layering up electricalor duct tape over a (non aggressive) regular tire

Switched out my knobbies on my carbon MTB hardtail for 29 x 2.1 thickslicks with TPU tubes. I am a roadie so MTB is ridden on tarmac and sidewalks after work in South Florida when it's too dark to safely ride my road bike on most roads so no gravel or trail riding. By a landslide + a mile, the most noticeable improvement i have ever made to any of my bikes. More improvement than upgrading to carbon aero wheels on my road bike you ask? YES! At 35 psi, handles sidewalk cracks and bumps like your riding on your softest pillow. Easily gained 1-2 mph at the same watts vs. the old tires due to the substantially lower rolling resistance. HIGHLY recommend this tire for this type of city riding. Not enough miles ridden yet to measure puncture resistance but I don't think that will be an issue from the other reviews. Why did I wait so long is all I can ask myself. Enjoy your ride.
