According to the product specialist
Pros
The light, centered stud profile makes this tyre lightning-fast on dry circuits. |
The PureGrip compound offers a great compromise between traction and durability. |
The tyre's carcass consists of 3 layers with 180 TPI for optimal contact surface for the road. |
Made of a compound with excellent handling characteristics in terms of grip but also longevity. |
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
The medium-tall knobs make this tyre ideal for winding tracks, grass and hard sandy paths. |
Thanks to the medium-high knobs profile ensures low resistance on straight stretches. |
The Exo Protection in the sidewalls provides protection against cuts from sharp objects. |
Cons
The Race King isn't the best for muddy circuits. |
Tubeless sealant should generally be topped up every 3-6 months. |
The knobs are too short for muddy conditions. |
