The disc-only Vanquish 6s meet and exceed all expectations. At Hed’s recommendation, 65 psi in the tubeless setup feels smooth and forgiving on 28mm Schwalbe Pro Ones mounted to monster 30mm-wide rims. The plush ride is perfect over the course of a long race or at the end of a long day in the saddle. The Vanquish’s ability to run at low pressures and brake without fear lets the rider focus only on putting down watts and enjoying the ride. On top of all that, the Vanquishs never feel heavy or flexy under hard efforts—in fact the ride is quite responsive.
