WTB Vulpine TCS Light SG2 Fast Rolling 700x40c Gravel TyreUnleash your full potential on gravel, hardpack, and pavement with the WTB Vulpine TCS Light SG2 700x40 gravel tyre. Engineered for the rider who prioritizes speed above all else, the Vulpine is WTB´s fastest-rolling gravel tyre, designed to minimize resistance and maximize velocity without sacrificing control. Whether you´re lining up at the start of a grueling gravel race or embarking on a long-distance bikepacking adventure, the Vulpine delivers an unparalleled combination of efficiency, durability, and confidence.Unleash Maximum Speed and EfficiencyThe heart of the Vulpine´s incredible performance lies in its tightly-packed, elevated centerline tread. This design creates a nearly continuous contact patch with the ground, drastically reducing rolling resistance on smooth surfaces like pavement and hard-packed dirt. This allows you to maintain higher speeds with less effort, conserving precious energy for the climbs and final sprints. The tyre´s supple 120 TPI casing further enhances its fast-rolling characteristics, conforming to the terrain for a smoother, more efficient ride.Cornering Confidence and All-Condition ControlWhile built for straight-line speed, the Vulpine doesn´t compromise on cornering grip. The tread pattern transitions to open, staggered outer knobs that dig into looser terrain as you lean the bike. This provides predictable traction and unwavering confidence when carving through gravel corners or navigating technical descents. The advanced Dual DNA compound features a firmer rubber along the centerline for speed and longevity, while the softer side knobs offer superior grip and control, giving you the best of both worlds.Robust Protection for Demanding RidesGravel riding demands a tyre that can withstand unpredictable and often harsh conditions. The Vulpine is equipped with WTB´s proven SG2 Puncture Protection, a lightweight and robust nylon insert that provides bead-to-bead coverage. This special layer offers excellent defense against cuts, slashes, and punctures from sharp rocks and trail debris, all while maintaining the tyre´s supple ride feel and keeping weight to a minimum. Ride with peace of mind, knowing your tyres are built to handle the toughest gravel roads. As a TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) tyre, it allows for lower pressures, which increases traction, comfort, and provides the self-sealing benefits of tubeless sealant.Brand:- Wtb.Category:- Tubes and tyres.Subcategory:- Tyres.Specifications:- Tyre VULPINE - 700X40, black para (Tan), TCS LIGHT FAST ROLLING, SG PROTECTION, folding.Technical Specifications:* Usage: Gravel cycling, Bikepacking* Size: 28´´- 700x40c* ETRTO: 40 - 622* Type: Folding Tyre* System: Tubeless Compatible (TCS)* Casing: Light, 120 TPI* Compound: Dual DNA* Recommended Pressure: 25 - 50 psi (1.7 - 3.4 bar)* Sidewall Colour: Tan (Para)
