SchwalbeBlack Jack 26X1.90 Wired Tyre 605g (47-559) - Black

Great quality and durability.

Bought these as my wife has used them for years with no punctures even long canal towpath rides . Narrower than some and , therefore , easier on roads .

Done around 150km of these, great tyres with low rolling resistance. Nice & quiet on the road and good grip off, even in light mud. I ordered the 1.90's which are quite narrow but work and look great on my old 90's GT. Not much sign of wear either, so should last a while but when they need replacing i'll be getting another set for sure.Good & fast service from Wolf Cycles where my order came from too.

Brought due to kevlar lining to reduce punctures

It’s important to check the direction of travel when fitting. I found the piece of paper telling you that after I fitted the tyre - the wrong way round of course!

I do a lot of cycling. Mostly cross country, forest and tow path type stuff, but also the inevitable road sections in between. I had been using Schwalbe Land Cruisers through the summer which work excellently and I cannot recommend them enough, but as the weather got worse I needed something a bit more chunky. I bought these as a half-way step between the Land Cruisers and some Schwalbe Rocket Rons which are my full off-road tyre.These Black Jacks come in 1.9" and 2.1" varieties. I was surprised how thin the 1.9s actually looked - they don't actually look much different than the 1.75 land cruisers I was running before. Even on quite a thin frame, I would think you'd be fine with the 2.1s....although they'll be slightly heavier of course.These roll nicely on tarmac with only a slight hum and don't feel much more difficult than the land cruisers.I've now done 100 or so miles on them on mixed off-road including a day at Swinley Forest and was thoroughly impressed, with no noticeable slips the whole day. With a fairly wet, sandy mix, they were clearing well too. No punctures either.For a tenner each I'd say these are a great value all round off-road tyre. They fit well without tools, look good and most importantly seem to grip well in the conditions I ride. Well recommended.

I got these, for my old bike they are a good fit, grip well great quality

Superb service, Next day delivery. Bought this for my e bike so wanted it for road and trail use. A brilliant tyre but make sure you have enough clearance between your rear stays and brakes.
