29r road tyres ?

[mrpedigree]

Guys i am having trouble finding dedicated 29r road tyres ?
Most of my riding is on the road so need something a bit more road dedicated than what i am using , any ideas ?

Schwalbe Big Apple seems to be available in 29er, both in 2.00 and 2.35". But that might be a bit wide.

How about pretty much any 700c tyre ? Rim's are the same diamiter

 

[FluffyChicken]

Arnt they just wide 700c road rims, same bead seat etc.
Try fitting hybrid or wide enough road tyres?

Yeah 700c tires will work fine.

700c ?? thanks guys i will look in to it

Would 28er be a better name for you.
700c is the size they where called before MTB marketeers grabbed hold of road/hybrid/cyclocross rims

If you want them fat I've got a mint pair of top-of-the-range Schwalbe Marathon Dureme 29er road/touring tyres (one ride old) I'd let got for £55 posted. They're 50mm wide, folding, reflective, posh compound. Amazing tyres and hard to find this exact model - I bought them from a German website and you can't find them anymore...

Well reviewed here:

I've got Schwalbe Big Apples on my Cannondale BadBoy 29er and they're great tyres.
