Maxxis Ravager Bicycle Tyre with Folding Bead 700x40C Dual Compound/SilkShield/Tubeless Ready, Black

A gravel tire for riders willing to brave aggressive terrain with only their drop bars and a tiny amount of rubber beneath them. Raised square-edged centre knobs provide climbing and braking traction on dust covered trails, and oversized cornering knobs keep you and your gear out of the dirt to conquer another turn. Conditions: Looser Over Hard, Medium, Loose TPI: 60 Bead: Foldable Ply Construction: Dual Compound: Dual Max PSI: 75 Tech: Tubeless Ready, SilkShield 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 Silkshield: SilkShield offers protection from bead to bead whereas Silkworm is found under the tread only. SilkShield provides an additional level of protection for sidewalls in addition to under the tread.
