Details
The creation of the XLR8 Touring saw us mix a high performance BMX racing tread with a hybrid/city tyre. We wanted the very best tread possible for grip on all surfaces and also with the ability to disperse water that was second to none! The XLR8 Touring grips fantastically well on tarmac, concrete, gravel tracks and compact dirt all year round (not suitable for snow or compact ice). The tread also wraps around to the shoulders of the tyre giving excellent grip even while cornering. This gives our hybrid/city customers the confidence to ride on most surfaces all year round. The XLR8 Touring also has an extra puncture layer (we call it KD) under the tread which is 1.8mm of Kevlar & nylon compound keeping many unwanted sharp objects out and stopping numerous potential punctures. The carcass of the tyre is 60 tpi and for extra visibility all XL8 Touring come with a reflective stripe on the sidewall. Available in sizes: 700 x 25C/28C/32C/35C/38C. MSRP £26. Other specification: 25C psi 90-110 / weight 395g. 28C psi 80-100 / weight 430g. 32C psi 50-85 / weight 545g. 35C psi 50-75 / weight 555g. 38C psi 50-75 / weight 640g.
