Hutchinson´s engineering focus is clear:We adapted our all-conditions Taipan rear tire to be the ultimate pick for Plus and e-bike setups. Our two-ply reinforced SpiderTech casing provides a consistent, stable connection to the trail under power, braking, or cornering. The variable-height tread knobs result in squirm-free power transfer and confident traction in the most demanding conditions. The 2.6-inch width hits the sweet spot for increased flotation, grip, and control at a reasonable weight.This targeted design philosophy translates into tangible on-trail benefits. The robust, two-ply SpiderTech casing is the backbone of the tyre, offering exceptional resistance to punctures and cuts while preventing casing roll, even under the high-torque loads generated by E-bikes. This rigid structure ensures your line choice is precise and your cornering is predictable. For dedicated MTB Cycling enthusiasts, this means more time riding and less time worrying about tyre integrity.The tread pattern is a masterclass in versatile performance. The variable-height knobs are strategically placed to deliver squirm-free, efficient power transfer on hardpack, while the taller, more aggressive side knobs dig deep for tenacious grip in loose corners and off-camber sections. This design ensures exceptional braking traction, allowing you to control your speed with confidence. The generous 2.60 width of this 29´´ tyre creates a large contact patch, enhancing flotation over rocks and roots while smoothing out trail chatter for a more comfortable and controlled ride.Built as a traditional Clincher tyre for use with an inner tube (Tubetype), this model features a durable Rigid wire bead for secure mounting and long-term reliability.
