WTB Trail Boss 2.6 29" Comp TyreThis mountain bike (MTB) tyre comes equipped with WTB’s TriTec compound, which uses its three compounds to deliver maximum grip and traction as you charge from trail to trail. Designed to improve upon the beloved Trail Boss 2.25, the wider Trail Boss 2.6 builds on perfection with a more aggressive tread pattern to match its increased width. Generous spacing between sizable knobs provides better traction in loose or wet conditions, while staying true to its fleet-footed heritage. Large, supportive side knobs dig deep, whether you’re leaning into a corner or grabbing a handful of brake. Most often used as a rear tyre, the Trail Boss 2.6 also provides plentiful traction as a front tyre on hardpack trails.No-Compromise TreadSome tyres are semi-slick and fast while others are chunky and bite. Trail Boss is designed to be the middle ground trail tyre. Tight groupings of centre knobs cut down on rolling resistance without hesitating to dig in while braking. Tall outer knobs quickly provide traction in the earliest phases of cornering.Strategically Directional SipingCentre and intermediate knobs are siped in a direction that improves accelerating and braking traction by increasing the number of working edges that bite into the trail when you crank on the pedals or slam on the brakes. Outer knobs feature sipes that run parallel to the tyre in order to provide the surface of the knobs with more cornering traction.Rear Focused DesignTrail Boss 2.6 features toothy knobs that maximise braking traction while their relatively tight spacing improves the longevity of the rear tyre by increasing the total surface area counteracting heavy braking forces. Substantial side knobs overhang the sidewall of the tyre to protect it from slashes while you’re steering with the rear. We suggest pairing the Trail Boss 2.6 with a Vigilante 2.6 on the front (available separately).Features: Compound: TriTec Use: Mountain Bike, Enduro Wheel Size: 29" Thickness: 2.6" Tubeless Ready: No Conditions: Loose over hard, dirt, loose and rocky Single or Pair: Single Weight: 1180gManufacturer’s Part Number: W110-1116Buy WTB Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
