As for the weight well it is bang on book 420g, the Panaracer slicks come in at 305g so a fair weight gain on the bike for a pair -260g but a totally different tyre.
They were a very, very tight fit on the Mavic XM419 Disc 650b 28H tubeless compatible rims but once inflated the beads seated first time. They are tubless compatible but I am using standard inner tubes at the mo. I have got the valves and liquid, just need the rim tape to convert them into tubless.
After several rides on different surfaces and different types of weather conditions I can report that they have not lost traction yet (apart for once on a very muddy section on track). I have used them on gravel railway lines, rocky single track sections, road, loose gravel. They clean well if they become clogged up and roll well on smoother surfaces.
The rrp is a earth shattering £59 each, and here is the manufacturers BLURB -
The Schwalbe One family provides the right tire for the latest gravel bike trend. The smooth rolling G-One profile and Tubeless Easy technology make it a pleasure to ride over forest paths and rolling fields.
