poweroutage Excellent service as always from Merlin, had my order in under 24 hours. Tyres are about as good as you're going to get for the money, used them for years and the only punctures I've had have been from something so big you're just grateful your rims are OK!
Mr Bailey Great price for really good tires. They seem to last all winter(about 3500 miles) then I just replace them for lighter ones for the summer. It works for me.
Connor O Got Continental tires for my downhill bike and can’t fault them so tried them for the road bike and I wasn’t disappointed! 10/10
Mr rogers Great tyres, value for money, good delivery service from Merlin as usual
Mr Smith A good tyre at a reasonable price. Only used it for a few miles but seems to grip well. Maybe a little firm but shouldn't grumble for the price
Mr Hazard Great product cant fault continental tyres, definitely roll quicker than my other tyres, and they arrived quickly too.
Ricardo Great tyres, fast and bomb proof
Mr Kneale After a couple of hundred kilometres tyres seem to be well made and no flats so far! Purchased at a very reasonable price from Merlin Cycles.
James Have been a great ride so far and no problems
Kris Bought these for a set of winter tyres.. 28mm, they are not a quick as my GP4000 and 5000 as you would expect but as a winter tyre for £10 you cant complain. First class service from Merlin..
Mr Doyle A good quality tyre at a budget price.
andy Excellent value for money. Better price than anywhere else. First time on 28mm tyres and the difference in ride quality is great.
Mr KAZICKAS Great soft tyres for great price! Very grippy, adds alot of confident on the road. Highly recomended!
Ian Excellent budget puncture proof tyre. Very happy
Tom Good training Tyre. It does what it says and didn't get a puncture yet. Would buy again.
C N Excellent product especially for the the price. I looked at so many as I wanted to try out a 700c 25. I've been running on 23s. Due to the price I choice these. Have only ridden on these a couple of times but noticed the difference immediately, smoother and quieter ride. Overall really pleased.. im a casual rider.. I get on the road when I can so these wont be working all that hard. Fairly slick tread so wouldn't fancy being out in the wet but thats not my bag so not an issue.. If you want a low cost quality tyre to get about on you cant go wrong...excellent service from Merlin's as well!!
Mr Coulter Literally can't get better tires for the money and merlin cycles are the cheapest I've found
Mr Robinson Very in impressed with my new tyres / tubes feel the difference straight away going from 25- 28s more comfort & better grip for my commute bike need to look into changing my weekend bike now to 28 👍
Mr crucerescu Fits my scott foil 30 2018. Surprisingly. No bulging, or rubber ''8''. It's 400 grams, but good enough for the winter ride.
Robin Great tyres for the money! Easy to get on and off the rim, nice comfy ride and good all round grip.
jason Excellent tires and a great price from Merlin as you would expect. Not really one to ride 23s but they work well with mud guards for clearance which is a bonus. The the tires themselves roll well seem well made and 🙏 no punctures so far so I'm pleased.
Mr Todd Great product excellent service from these guys.
Mr O'Sullivan Good standard training tyre
Mr Brouet Bought at an extremely great value for money! Was part of a bundle with 2 of these tyres and 2 inner tubes. All of this for less than 25 pounds. This saved me a lot of money and got me back on my commute after my tyres got slashed by some vandals one day! Delivery was also quicker than I expected! Quality as described! Thank’s Merlin cycles!!!
Mr oliver Excellent tyre, its the first one I've used from this brand. So much grip. Good value.
Mr Mowbray Got these on an offer of £8.50 a tyre. Serious bang for your buck there. Great value for a great product. Hats off to merlin cycles on that deal.
Mr Thompson Second set I’ve ordered plus a pair for a friend who couldn’t believe the value
Rob Super smooth on the road and astrong enough to deal with neglected B roads and the odd pothole. Was a little tricky to fit, wire bead was stiffer than most.
Mr Latham Fantastic training tyres. Good grip and roll really well.
Shaun My third set of these tyres, a great superb product.
Mr Houston Excellent tyre. Fantastic fast delivery from Merlin. Will definitely be buying again.
Mr Griffiths Very good for the price, would buy again
Mr Porteous I've not done too many miles on these, and have only been out in dry conditions... but so far so good. I used these on the front wheel and the grip seems to work very well. They were quite tight to get onto the rims, but with a little patience and sore thumbs it all came good.
Mr lloyd Really good tyres for the money. Good for training and in all weathers and was very impressed with how they fit on the wheel no levers required, very easy to fit.
Mr roberts Good tyres, a bit tough to get on the rim but once its on grip is good
Mr Byrne Great tyre, puncture resistance and grip, highly recommended
graeme Used these before and they are great all round tyres
Mr Almeida Very good tyre with long durability and a strong TPI against puncture
Lee Great tyre at a superb price. Used these last couple of years and found have great puncture protection and roll very well. Better than many more pricey tyres I`ve had. Will buy again
Mr Mason Good all-rounder for average rider
Milroy Great price for the pair. Gone from 23m to 25mm and the difference in comfort is noticable.
Mr Tommy Nice tires, with a limited budget they suited me well. Early days, but no problems have arisen as of yet.
Mr greenway Bargain tyres for winter. Reasonable wet grip & wear rate.
Mr Blackman Tight bead! Still a great tyre that I'd buy again.
Steve Very happy. Good tyre for commuting and longer rides. Quick delivery. Recommended.
Mr Dobson Great tyres at a great price, road 120 mile coast 2 coast in one day with no problems and in all weathers. Super fast delivery. Highly recommended!
