The Minion SS fills the gap between a fast rolling XC tire and a grippy DH tire by including a cluster of short ramped knobs flanked by the much-loved Minion side knobs. This combination creates a fast-rolling tire with a square profile that hooks up in loose terrain. Perfect for dry days at the bike park.

This densely woven fabric is also lightweight and highly flexible ensuring that the performance of the tyre remains unaffected. Choose EXO Protection for exceptionally rocky treacherous trails where the chance of sidewall cuts and abrasions is high. Tubeless Ready: Tubeless tyres provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tyre; and less chance of flatting since there is no tube. Maxxis Tubeless Ready (TR) tyres provide the benefits of a UST tubeless tyre without the weight penalty. Our TR tyres use a standard casing and require the use of a liquid sealant in order to make them airtight. Maxxis Tubeless Ready tyres are the only Maxxis tyres approved for use with liquid sealants. Using a liquid sealant in any non-TR Maxxis tyre will void the warranty.

Vectran™ Breaker Vectran is a synthetically manufactured high-tech fibre from a natural model. Like spider silk, Vectran is a liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP). Vectran is spun from melted liquid polymer Vectra and processed further to a multi-strand thread. Spider silk, like Vectran, has an enormous tear resistance at a very low weight – exactly the right properties to process into a premium Continental bike tyre as a puncture protection insert. A Vectran Breaker is lighter, more flexible and protects more effectively against cuts than the comparable nylon breaker. Vectran Breaker does not adversely affect the rolling resistance. BlackChili Compound Continental refine newly developed synthetic rubbers with natural rubber with the proven high-performance tread compound. They use these rubbers with special nanometric carbon soot particles, which are optimized in shape and surface properties for best uses for the intended tyre. BlackChili Compound reaches an unprecedented of performance. Tyres with BlackChili Compound reach an unprecedented level of performance. Compared to the previous best Activated Silica Compound, BlackChili tyres have 26% less rolling resistance, a 30 % higher friction value (grip) and a 5 % increase in mileage.
Challenge Strada Open Road TyreThe famous all-round use, good rolling tread design in a supple, comfortable 25mm size, also now available in ‘Open Tubular’ clincher. Designed for all roads, this tyre gives you world-class fast rolling and cornering as well as maximum control as you clock up the miles.Features: Use: Road Racing, Big Rider, Rough RoadsSize: 700Tyre Width: 25mmInternal Rim Width: 13-17mmTPI: 300Bead: AramidCasing: SuperPolyFlat Protection: PPSBAR: 7-10PSI: 100-145Weight: 240gTechnologies: Challenge Handmade Clinchers (HCL): Our Handmade Clinchers are made from the same materials and processes as our handmade tubulars but instead of sewing an inner tube inside the casing is wrapped around an aramid bead to form a tire that fits on a clincher rim. The HCL is moulded flat, not in a horseshoe like a TLR or VCL. This shape allows the casing to naturally deform over surface imperfections and minimize rolling resistance. A tubeless tire is moulded in a U-shape to make the sidewalls rigid, so the system does not “burp” or lose air when it deforms after it encounters a surface imperfection. The tubeless tire's stiff sidewall compromises its ability to equal a supple HCL with a latex inner tube.Buy Challenge Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Kenda Hellkat Pro Folding Mountain Bike TyreDeveloped alongside the professional riders of the UR Team, this Hellkat tyre by Kenda is a top choice for gravity and enduro riders alike. Specially-designed for taking on a variety of under-wheel conditions, it provides a top rolling performance as you twist and turn your way down the mountain. Available in a range of technologically advanced casings, this fantastic folding tyre stands up to any challenge your chosen route throws at you. Versatile, Dual Compound, Grippy MTB Tyre Made from a dual-layer compound, the Hellkat Pro gives unbeatable grip and composure across the toughest terrains, with its tubeless-ready design enhancing the hold as you take corners with pace and power. The alternating rows of knobs along the centreline work hard to reduce rolling resistance, while the taller blocks on the outer edge improve braking performance, even in the wettest conditions. This quality-made Kenda tyre is a must-have for any enduro maverick. Features: Compound: dual-layer Compound Use: Gravity, Enduro Bead: Folding TPI: 60, 120 Tubeless-Ready: YesTechnologies: EN-DTC: Designed around the rigours of enduro racing. Featuring a lower rolling resistance value than previous dual tread compounds, tyres with EN-DTC show less wear than other similar tyres. With shore A values lower than the original DTC, the EN-DTC provides a more responsive ride, letting the knobs do the work of control and braking on the ground. AGC: The Advanced Gravity Casing (AGC) is Kenda's latest innovation for gravity orientated riders. Utilizing strips of Kenda Vector Shield (KVS), a lightweight woven aramid material, positioned under the tread area and along the sidewalls to protect the tyre from cuts and punctures. The KVS material offers nearly three times more cut resistance than standard protective materials. A 20mm apex along the bead prevents pinch flats and burping. Our lightest and strongest gravity casing up to date. AEC: Developed for the rigours of enduro, the new Advanced Enduro Casing (AEC) fills the gap between the burly Advanced Gravity Casing (AGC) and the weight-optimised Advanced Trail Casing (ATC). Using the same 3-piece Aramid inserts as the AGC casing, AEC omits the apex at the bead: for the same high level of puncture and cut resistance but without the added weight. A dual-layer compound provides the same reliable grip found on the AGC casing. RSR dual-layer (RSRDL): Kenda developed this compound for a new generation of gravity tyres - an evolution of the existing Race Stick-E Rubber (RSR) compound. Building on the impressive original, the new RSR compound is a dual-layer tread rubber, with the soft RSR compound on top and the stiff SRC on bottom. This new dual-layer compound offers better performance because the stiff bottom SRC layer serves as the hard foundation for the softer RSR layer to push against. The result is a compound that provides better control and lasts longer than previous versions.Buy Kenda Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
The Maxxis Speed Terrane features a familiar file tread pattern optimized for early season cyclocross races. Micro-diamond knobs adorn the tread surface to offer blazing speed on hard packed surfaces, while stacked paddle knobs down the middle offer unrivalled climbing and braking traction so you can attack whenever you like.

Traditional tyres are designed around older, narrower rims and can create an overly square tyre profile, leading to less than optimal performance. WT tires are optimized for a 35mm inner rim width but are proven to work over a range from 30-35mm inner rim widths, depending on the rider s preference.
