Schwalbe One

Yes, this tire is designed to be tubeless-ready, meaning it can be run with a tube if you prefer. However, for the best performance and puncture protection, it is optimized for a tubeless setup using sealant.

The 25c offers the lowest rolling resistance and weight, making it ideal for pure speed on smooth roads. The 28c and 30c options provide increased air volume, which improves comfort and grip on rougher surfaces or longer rides.

The difference is purely aesthetic. Both versions share the exact same rubber compound, casing construction, and performance characteristics, so you can choose the look that best matches your bike frame.

Yes, to run these tubeless, you will need to ensure your rims are taped with tubeless-compatible rim tape and that you are using dedicated tubeless valves. You will also need to add tubeless sealant to the tire during installation to seal the system.

The Schwalbe One is primarily designed as a high-performance road tire. While the 30c width can handle light, well-maintained dirt paths, it lacks the tread pattern and sidewall protection required for dedicated gravel or off-road riding.
