This tyre has a lot of technology built in for an affordable price.
It is designed with a dual compound tread pattern that gives you the ability to have soft race compound on the edges for turning and a stiffer more durable compound in the center so the tire will last many miles.
The tire also incorporates Maxxis Silkworm Technology for excellent puncture resistance.
These tyres are designed for 26inch mountain bikes in situations where a road bike style tread is preferred, such as when using the bike for commuting.
