Review by AnonymousOdd casing separationby Anonymous4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Love the ride quality and general toughness on rough roads and firebreaks, but have had two in a row get a puncture that sealed on the outside but then let air get between an inner layer of rubber and the tread, resulting in tire deformities that made them unridable.

Review by SchroederExcellent tire. Reliable and performs very well for a fatty.by SchroederCycling EnthusiastTemecula, CA2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.I think the other reviewer probably didn't install his tire properly. I ran these on a converted carbon clincher (Reynolds R2). They performed flawlessly and lasted as long as any other tubeless tire I've ridden. Although lighter... they do roll a tab slower than the Fusion 3 tubeless tires, but it's barely noticeable. Ride comfort is also improved over the Fusion 3s however, so it depends on what you want. I think this makes an excellent training or all conditions type of tire. If you race you may do better with a 23mm or even 25mm wide tire. But if you just want a smooth ride I'd go for this one. My only knock... the Secteur is a little on the pricy side.

Review by AnonymousGreat road / long commuter tireby AnonymousCycling EnthusiastUtah1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I have put 450 miles on these tires. No signs of wear. Recommended (for my weight) 100psi, next day at about 85 psi. I have had no problems with the tires. I use them on a Trek Cronus, Cyclocross bike, for commuting and long training rides. I have ridden through masses of glass, over metal and wood in the dark without any problems. When I see crap on the road I laugh as I ride through it.They seem to have a fair amount of rolling resistance compared to my other bike tires, but hard to compare (Conti 4000S 23mm on a Trek Madone) the two setups. A bit pricy it may seem, but the have no signs of wear as of yet. Did very well in a heavy rain storm ride.
They have been very reliable in the short time I have had them. My first tubeless road tires and I love having no flats.

Review by CRTWhen the going gets rough...by CRTCycling EnthusiastNew Mexico4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.These seat in easily and seem appropriate on my 25mm wide rims. No problem inflating, but I have a compressor. Like the other reviewer, I found they lost air quickly, that is until I took the time to refill with another ounce more Stan's a second time. It seems they took a while to really seal up, but now they hold air for many days straight.
These tires are what I was dreaming of for a long time- pretty light, durable in rough conditions, and the sweet, plush ride of tubeless. Really comfortable under my 165 at 70fr 75rr psi. Great on hard packed dirt and gravel, and I don't feel slow at all.
These will not wear like the Intensives, I can see the tread wear after 600 miles, but I beat them through some brutal conditions and have had no flats so far.

Review by AnonymousDon't hold air wellby AnonymousCompetitive RacerFlorida2 of 18 customers found this review helpful.I have used Hutchinson tubeless road tires for 3 years. I eagerly awaited the availability of the Secteurs. However, I am very disappointed. They don't hold air, deflating completely overnight. They lose so much air, despite the use of sealant, that I don't think you could complete a ride over 2 hours unless you stopped to re-inflate. Hutchinson has been completely unresponsive to my inquires.
Reviewed 5/30/2013WesternBikeworks.com CommentsWe're here to help, too, so please feel free to contact us if Hutchinson isn't available. Some rims are particularly challenging to use without tubes, but generally we've had good luck with Hutchinsons sealing. Was this review useful to you?
