German tire manufacturer Schwalbe has announced plans to expand its gravel tire lineup to include 32-inch diameters. The new models, the G-ONE RS PRO and G-ONE RX PRO, will be available in 50 mm and 55 mm widths and are scheduled for commercial release in April 2027.

The decision follows prototype testing, including use by Robin Gemperle during the Unbound XL race, which demonstrated that the larger diameter format provides increased stability, traction, and comfort due to higher air volume. This shift responds to an industry trend toward larger wheel diameters for gravel bicycles, which are expected to enter the market as early as autumn 2026.

Schwalbe indicated that while they were initially skeptical of the 32-inch format, they intend to expand this offering to include various mountain bike tires in the future.
