– Carbon-Black Compound: Optimized for high mileage, reducing wear while maintaining grip on wet or dry roads.
Perfect for Demanding City Use
Ideal for daily commuters, couriers, and fitness cyclists tackling unpredictable urban terrain. The folding bead design (700×28 / 29″) ensures easy storage and installation, while the clincher type guarantees compatibility with most road bikes. At just 350g, they balance lightweight agility with industrial-strength endurance.
