I'm wondering how well they roll and corner on the road, and grip off-road after seeing some on bikes in a shop in Europe. They're impressively huge, and should hopefully be okay on some i30 Alex Supra 35 rims I have.

My gut is that i would worry they would be a bit squirmy on that size rim under the lowish psi where high volume tires shine, depends on the planned use. That is a generalized comment of course. I am thinking it would like another 10mm. I too have interest in that tire! I wish they had it in 2.5.

I have them on Velocity Dually rims, setup tubeless. They roll fast on pavement and work well in dry dirt. They can be slippery in muddy conditions.

Russ just put these up. Most of the applicable commentary is at the beginning of the vids. They are on Dually rims like Norman's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpELf0aWEvQ

^ That's about what I figured...
When I bought the rims a few years ago I asked about Duallys, but they weren't available in Oz in 650b, and still aren't. Given my recent trauma in having something shipped from the US, either Stans or even Light Bicycle carbon rims are just as likely to be cheaper than privately importing Duallys. :-(

Crust AU did have them, but they are listed as out of stock. I would bug them. They only had the expensive polished ones up though. https://www.crustbikes.com.au/products/velocity-dually-rim-27-5-polished/
