Zatiaľ najazdené cca 200 km (bezduše na kolesách Marin) asfalt, aj rozbitý, poľná cesta, štrková obslužná cesta kameňolomu. Doteraz som jazdil na American Classic Kimberlite 700x35 a WTB Riddler 700x37. Porovnanie: Tufá sú najpohodlnejšie (asi na to má vplyv aj šírka) nie sú tak rýchle ako American Classic ale rozhodne rýchlejšie ako WTB. Dal som si moju štandartnú trasu - v stúpaní sa mi s určitou námahou (vyššia tepovka) dosiahol cca rovnaký čas ako s AC ale dolu kopcom neboli tak ochotné zrýchľovať (cca mínus 5-8 km/h) . Na asfalte sú najhlučnejšie a to o dosť. Oceňujem ako ma podržali, keď som sa pozabudol a vletel som tridsiadkou z asfaltu na štrkovú cestu okolo kameňolomu, zachoval som si stabilitu na vymletých rigoloch s hrubým štrkom. A ani som neobjavil náznak defektu či priesaku mlieka. Mal som obavu akú skutočnú šírku budú mať po nahodení (hovorí sa, že Tufá su o 2mm širšie) Na gravel ráfiku vnútornej šírky 22mm, sa šírka plášťa zhoduje z uvedenou hodnotou 40 mm.

These are my first gravel tires, so I can't compare with others. As for these coats, they are really excellent and at a good price. They seem to be quite durable and will last a while. They roll well, are fast and hold up well on the road. Tested even in light snow and quite nice.
I definitely recommend.
Edit: I'm adding to the rating. After about 400 km I got a puncture. Luckily it was just a small hole, probably a thorn or something so small, because I didn't figure it out until the next day. I only drive on roads and mostly commute mainly to work for a bike ride. The roads are a mess after winter, but I personally expected these tires to last longer. I use them wholeheartedly, but it doesn't change anything, because I drive on tarmac and on tires from Swalbe, these Tufo tires don't hold up at all in terms of protection against punctures. I've covered about 150 km since the puncture and I haven't had another puncture, but we'll see how it continues. However, my opinion is that I should have stayed with Swalba, and I probably do.

I bought a used WTB Riddler 45mm instead. Casting on rafts without montpak, it was enough to press hard with the thumbs. The foot is harder to fit, I had to blow the tube up to 80 PSI several times before it would fit. But I went dry, without soap. They do not have a direction of rotation, there is no danger of putting them in the opposite direction. The ride is excellent, they can be easily blown on the asphalt at 50-60 psi. Very fast compared to Riddler. When I started to regret not taking the 36s, they would probably be a little faster. I also tried forest and dirt roads with higher pressures. Still very comfortable and fast, just take the pressure off. Satisfaction for me.

Zatial v pohode. Nahodené ako bezduše. Reálna šírka na DT swiss 23mm afikoch 40mm. Tlak drali aj bez mlieka. Do kadej som dal 60ml.
Nahodenie v pohode. Dá sa povedať bez pák. Švagor má silné prsty. Nafúknuté na šupu s jarovou vodou na 5 BAR.
Odvaľujú super a istotu oproti 32mm mám o 200% lepšiu a na ceste odvaľujú super. Hlučnosť žiadna. Jazdím na 4 BARY , ale kôli pohodliu skúsim 3-3,5 . Priemerka ma veľmi netrápy. Jazdím len cestu a horšie rozdrbané asfalt povchy . Po daždi a blate nejazdím. Foto v ráme RockMachinu Lukk-u CR 80.

I was motivated to buy by the excellent reviews and the rating on www.bicyclerollingresistance.com , according to which it is a gravel tire with minimal rolling resistance compared to the competition. I can confirm the speed on the road. Compared to the WTB Riddler flood tires, they are noticeably faster. I haven't gone tubeless yet. I used a lightweight Pirelli smarTUBE tire. Still without a defect. In case of frequent defects, I consider tubeless.

Zatiaľ, po cca 1000km, spokojnosť. Defekty o ktorých by som vedel zatiaľ neboli. Jazdím ako bezduše. Predtým som mal od kúpy WTB Riddler 37mm s dušami. Oproti tým pôvodným plášťom pocitovo lepšie valia na asfalte aj keď sú mierne širšie. Terén vlastne veľmi ohodnotiť neviem lebo na graveli chodím max ľahší terén, pri zjazdoch pekne opatrne aby mi to nevytriaslo kosti. Na to stačia asi každé plášte.

po 300km nemam co vytknut, na asfalte pocitovo rychle, v terene pohodlne ... treba sa pohrat s tlakmi aby ich clovek naplno vyuzil, na asfalte 3-3,5 bar, ked idem viac teren, tak 2,5-3 bar, urcite by to znieslo aj menej
nasadenie ako bezduse na rafik rýchle a bez problemov, tlak drzia dlho, netreba casto dofukovat

I switched to this 40 from the WTB Riddler 37 and it was a pleasant surprise for me. I expected that I would have worse resistance on asphalt, but the opposite is true. The ride is smoother and more comfortable. I have more confidence in the corners and they also manage the sotoline well. For the money, they can't go wrong. I ride a gravel 100kg cyclist.

So far (ca. 600km) satisfaction, I ride them as tubeless and more or less on dry land. Mix asphalt, broken asphalt and forest roads. They also managed spring wet forest roads. I've ridden the WTB Riddler 37C briefly before and these are faster on paved surfaces despite the larger size and lower pressure.

for that price, there is nothing better!
If you are looking for a tire for both road and gravel, I recommend it. It is universal and holds well on asphalt and off-road. Of course, for comfort you have to win with the tire pressure - I recommend putting in the TubeLess shown

I was attracted to the quality of the plastic by the handmade inscription on the box and also by the fact that it is a Czech product (golden Czech hands). I made the plastic ones so that they hold perfectly in the frame. I'm still waiting for my first ride, but I believe I won't be disappointed??‍♂️

So far, only two exits, both the road and the field so-called ploughing, and the forest paths hold up great in light terrain, on the road you can also pull quite well... I have a converted tubeless one, and I'm happy with the max. mileage so far, only approx. 100km...

The tires were easy to put on and I inflated them like tubeless with a classic service pump. When driving, they are almost completely silent and roll well. Compared to previous tufo Speederos, they feel even quieter and just as fast.

It rolls great, the tread holds something. As a soul without a flat tire, with a soul I caught flats on the rear regularly. The broken frame does not allow driving without a hose, so I poured milk directly into it, maybe it will hold something.

I use this beauty with the same brand sealant liquid. 1500+ km, and still more than perfect. It was a bit hard to fit on Mavic Allroad wheelset but not impossible (i think this is normal with tubeless tyres).

I am satisfied. I went from 38 to 40, so that also affected my satisfaction. I put them as tubeless and at a pressure of 4, complete comfort even on dirt roads and briskly on asphalt. I will definitely give them to my wife.

Kipróbáltam szinte mindenféle terepen, az aszfalttól a durva, kissé saras eredei túristaútig. Sehol nem volt gondom vele, és emellett nagyon kedvező volt az ára. Eddig tökéletesen elégedett vagyok vele.

Without debate, great. I had the opportunity to test the speedero for about 3,000 km without any problems. Swampero 1 thousand I have been very satisfied with these for 200km, the middle ground between both tufo products.

Super year-round plastic, personally, they didn't get bad enough and if I leave them without air for a long time, they let in more air than I'm used to. But otherwise I'm satisfied with them ?

I wanted 44s, but when I put on 40s, the tsk suits me perfectly on a 20 mm rim, they have exactly 40 mm, I was struggling with tubeless, but it wasn't the tire's fault..
