Best Suited For
Ideal for urban commuters, recreational cyclists, fitness riders and riders converting a 26" MTB for road use.
Best use: paved roads, city streets, cycle paths and other hard surfaces. It is not intended as a dedicated off-road MTB tyre, as the slick tread provides limited traction on loose or muddy terrain.
