Confidence in the corners, great straight line speed and good mud clearance are all features of this tyre from Specialized.

A good sticky rubber compound keeps things glued to the trail, this is a great tyre for muddy trail conditions and is ideal for the early racing season. We recommend the tubeless 2.0 version but it is also worth looking at the Armadillo armoured version. RRP €48 from The Cycle Inn and 53 Degrees North.
