    High Road SL Tyre Test Results

    Road.cc

    “Across more than a month of testing I’ve been nothing but impressed with the SL’s performance in both wet and dry conditions… Dry grip is on a par with the highly-regarded Vittoria Corsa Speed, while the new HYPR-S compound is similarly impressive in the wet… Ride quality is good and on a par with the Continental GP5000… Despite not using them for time-trial miles, on a velodrome or indeed any of the other recommended uses, I was thoroughly impressed to not pick up a single puncture (despite the hedge cutting in my local lanes.)

    The Maxxis High Road SL is an excellent, high-performance tyre and one of the lightest out there. Other tyres certainly last longer, but competition of this quality usually comes with a financial penalty as well as a weight one. In my opinion, for hill climbs or TTs (if you don’t run rubes) it’s a no brainer, while for road racing – so long as you can justify the more frequent replacements – its speed and grip make it an excellent choice. – Jamie Williams, Road.cc, October 2020
