WTB Trail Boss Light Tyre – 27.5″ (650b) – Black

Description

WTB Trail Boss Light TyrePerfect for modern mountain bike (MTB) trail riding, this high-quality tyre is equipped with the renowned TriTec compound and uses three rubber compounds to provide different levels of traction, support and durability based on their placement within the tread. This allows it offer maximum rolling performance in dirt, loose and rocky terrain conditions. WTB has also kitted out this model with single-ply casing and additional sidewall protection, which makes it more than capable of handling all the demands from long days on the trails. Thanks to its TCS tubeless technology, riders will also benefit from reduced friction, increased comfort and less chance of flats wherever their next ride takes them.Tubeless-Ready MTB TyreIt’s a tall order to improve the tried-and-true Trail Boss tyre, but that’s exactly what WTB has done. The revised Trail Boss builds on perfection with a more aggressive tread pattern to match its increased volume. Generous spacing between sizable knobs provides better traction in loose or wet conditions, while staying true to its fleet-footed heritage. Large, supportive side knobs dig deep, whether you’re leaning into a corner or grabbing a handful of brake. Most often used as a rear tyre, the Trail Boss also provides plentiful traction on hardpack trails when used on the front.Features: Compound: TriTec Casing: Single-ply 60 tpi + sidewall protection Level: TCS Light/Fast Rolling Use: MTB, Trail and Enduro Tubeless Ready: Yes, TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) ETRTO: 27.5″: 65-584; 29″: 65-622 Min-Max Pressure: 15-30 psi Single or Pair: Single Manufacturer’s Part Numbers: 27.5″: W110-1109; 29″: W110-1115 Weight: 27.5″: 1071g; 29″: 1195gTechnologies: TriTec Compound: All of WTB’s updated mountain tyres feature TriTec Compound, which utilises three rubber compounds to provide different levels of traction, support and durability based on their placement within the tread. The entire tread pattern is supported by a base of high durometer rubber, which also transitions halfway into the height of the knobs and allows for the use of softer knob compounds without the tyre folding due to cornering forces. The top of the centre knobs consist of a medium durometer compound to provide traction and durability without sacrificing rolling efficiency, while the outer knobs feature the softest compound to deliver maximum grip and slow rebound. TCS (Tubeless Compatible System): TCS is WTB’s standardised tubeless rim/tyre system designed to meet international ETRTO standards and ensure ultimate reliability. Pairing WTB’s legendary casings and tread compounds with a tubeless aramid bead provides increased traction and reliability of a tubeless tyre, at a lower weight than any tubed alternative. TCS Light/Fast Rolling (LFR): A fast and efficient centerline tread compound matched to sticky, low durometer side knobs coat a supple, gram-conscious casing designed to be compliant while still trail-worthy.Buy WTB Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
