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.

Fast rolling supple and light

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

So far only about 50 miles over rough terrain but the tires roll well As per other comments- they deflate faster than many others but that’s the price you pay for supple sidewalls

Like others have noted these tires leak air bad when setting up. They are also pretty challenging to get on the rim, but not impossible. The snug fit does give me confidence, but I don't look forward to removing them. Here's the best advice I can offer for getting these to seal up and hold air and tubeless fluid: DO NOT ADD SEALANT RIGHT AWAY 1. Get the tires on and the belts to seat on your rim. Pump them up to near max inflation and observe. Air will probably leak out of the sidewalls pretty rapidly. You can confirm this with soapy water. 2. Add sealant through your valve stem. 3. Replace the valve core and add just enough air that the tire isn't flat. DO NOT PUMP IT UP TO FULL. At most go to the bottom of the tire's recommended range; like 20-30psi TOPS. Any more than that and you will leak a lot of sealant through the tires. 4. Slosh the fluid around inside coating both sides of the sidewall and let the wheel sit on its side over a box or a bucket or something to protect your disks/hub/cassette/etc. for like 10-20mins each side. 5. After doing step 4 a couple of times per wheel, add more air and give the wheel an occasional spin on your bike. After a while you should be losing about 10-20psi per hour; which is way better at this point. 6. Pump the tires to max psi and ride the bike about an hour or so. Your tires should be pretty sealed up at this point.

Just...terrible

Installed them and saw/heard air bubbles of sealant out of the front and back upper sidewalls! Waste of money, sealant, and time.

It's true, they do run small. I wanted to love theses tires so bad, but after running 40's which are 35-38s in other manufactures specs I upped the size to 44. I immediately noticed sealant leakage when they were first put on, but I was hopeful. Sadly they flatted, spurting sealant within the first 5 miles of a planned big ride. That was just the back tire, which I ended up swapping. On a ride shortly after the front tire went. I wouldn't trust these tires if someone paid me to use them. They are easy to put on and would be better ran with tubes than tubeless, Like I say in the title, skip these, they aren't worth the heartache...
