WTB WeirWolf 2.3 TCS Tire, Black, 29-Inch

High volume, fast rolling, oodles of grip. The new WeirWolf 2.3 takes the terraced side knobs from its 26€ siblings along with its more evenly spaced pattern and applies it to a mid-depth 29€ TCS tire. This tire is a favorite from rigid riders to the progressive all-mountain 29er movement with its moderate weight, big size, and do-it-all attitude. TCS (tubeless compatible system) tires are designed to meet UST, ISO, ETRTO standards. TCS tires feature the best of both worlds: they boast the ride benefits of a tubeless tire with the minimal weight of a non-UST tire. WTB€s Dual DNA rubber compound is the perfect mix of efficiency, traction and durability. The centerline tread features a firmer rubber compound that boasts faster rolling and increased durability, while the side knobs are composed of softer, slower-rebounding rubber that improves control and grip. Siping on knobs are small incisions on a tire€s tread. Siping a knob creates more working edges, which boosts traction in virtually any condition. Because WTB€s high-end mountain bike tires feature shallow sipes, the knobs stay firm under heavy loads and hard braking.
