Why We Like The Byway Road TCS Tire
Our rides rarely stick to one surface anymore, snaking between dirt and asphalt as we uncover those hidden scenic vistas. The WTB Byway’s tread pattern gives us the smooth roll we need on pavement with the semi-slick center, transitioning to a hatched diamond pattern for plentiful grip when you're grinding along dirt and gravel surfaces. Raised side knobs offer more grip for cornering on dirt, as well as durability for exploring off-road areas where rocks and sharp debris are common. Three size options and tubeless set up make sure we have the right tire both for our frame and destination.

Twice now I have replaced my back tire with these -- twice it has busted on a smooth road with only a small slit across the top of the tread. It makes me think there's an issue with the rubber itself. I ALWAYS check my tire pressure before each ride. I never had issues with sealant but after replacing this twice I am moving on to another brand.

Ride decent, but a nightmare coming off

I have no gripes about how the tire goes on the rim or how it rides, pretty respectable in both categories. My (BIG) problem was when it came time to remove them. They were so plastered to the rim I couldn't budge them with my hands or even any of my standard bike tools. Mind you, I've been an avid cyclist for decades and have plenty of experience with such things. I had to finally resort to the kind of thing you're NEVER supposed to do -- whip out big boy tools, namely, my largest vice grips to clamp down and leverage the tire off with way more force than my hands ever would have managed. WTB -- not cool!

Will not fill air even with compressor

700 x 44’s Surprisingly very easy to install, getting air into the tires is a nightmare. Installed on Zipp 303 NSW disc wheels. Front set up took 3 attempts with compressor, minor sealant leaks but sealed after 5 minutes. Tried 8 times on the rear but to no avail, would not inflate at all. Called it in to ask for a replacement tire. Hoping it’s just a defective batch, will report back when I get the replacement.

Great mixed surface tire

I got the 700x40 tanwall tires for mixed surface riding right from my house (gravel doubletrack, bike paths, roads) and they perform well as an all around tire. Surprisingly grippy climbing on gravel, even out of the saddle if it isn’t too lose and pretty fast on pavement even when running lower pressures. The tan sidewalls are awesome. Pretty easy to set up tubeless with an air compressor. Had one spot on the rear that didn’t want to seal after a few rides, but some extra sealant solved that. Unfortunately they didn’t measure true to size (36mm when first mounted), but have since stretched out to 38.5 (my rims are U28, so that shouldn’t be the issue). Regardless, great tire. If I were doing more gravel and less pavement, I’d go with the 44s if they’ll fit your frame.

Touring

Exactly what I was looking for on off road touring. It’s fast rolling and aggressive enough for what I need. Zero flats so far which was a big problem with previous tires
