I am going to be building up a Crux 4 frame set soon, primarily as a road bike. I currently run 32mm tires with TPU tubes and due to the state of UK roads, would like to increase to a set of 34mm on the Crux. Only issue, is other than Vittoria with the N.EXT and Rubino lines, I can’t find any other manufacturers that does a 34mm tube type tire. If anyone knows of any other options, please let me know.
Not interested in going tubeless.
I don’t see much else either. Continental, Schwalbe and Goodyear make traditional clinchers in a 32 but not wider that I know of.
I’m sure you know it, but you can run tubeless ready tyres with tubes inside. I’ve had good luck with Vittoria Corsa pro controls (tlr) and tpu tubes. At least my for my rims the pro controls aren’t too tight, which I know can be a pain with tlr tyres.
I’ve run all my “tubeless” tires with tubes, most likely since I just don’t see a need for tubeless for a tire smaller than 2.2”. It’s a PITA for sure to seat the bead. But once thats done all works just as normal.
