The centerline features a smooth, nearly continuous tread pattern that significantly reduces rolling resistance, allowing you to build and maintain speed effortlessly on hardpack and pavement sections.

These staggered knobs are designed to bite into looser terrain, providing unwavering confidence and predictable grip when cornering on dirt, gravel, or through loose-over-hardpack conditions. The transition between the fast center and the grippy shoulders is seamless, inspiring confidence at any speed.This tyre is built with Kend´s premier technologies to enhance your ride experience. The Tubeless Ready design is a cornerstone of its performance, allowing you to run lower air pressures for a massive boost in traction and comfort. The increased air volume of the 40mm casing smooths out rough terrain, reducing rider fatigue, while the tubeless setup virtually eliminates pinch flats and allows sealant to instantly repair most common punctures. The Folding bead not only reduces the overall weight of the tyre but also makes installation easier and allows it to be conveniently packed as a spare for epic adventures.At the heart of its performance is the advanced L3RPRO compound.
