The 3-layer carcass gives the tyre the necessary puncture resistance and durability. |
The Blackchili compound makes the tyre smoother where it is needed for optimal rolling resistance. |
Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
A lightweight tyre with super-fast properties. |
The Exo Protection side wall offers excellent protection against cuts. |
This tyre can be made tubeless for maximum performance. |
The aggressive tread makes this tyre loved by many Trail and Enduro riders. |
Suitable for technical descents over tree roots and rocks. |
The Exo Protection technology protects the sidewalls well against sharp stones. |

Tubeless Ready technology makes the tyres easy to make tubeless with 90ml of latex sealant per tyre. |
