Long Distance Traveler
The durable carbon black compound, renowned puncture protection system, and DuraSkin® cut protection make the Gatorskin, formerly known as Ultra Gatorskin, a true long-distance tourer. With its variety of widths, it's suitable for commuting, road training, leisure cycling, and marathon rides. Gatorskin is a popular, affordably priced tire, now available in foldable sizes 28-622 and 32-622.
Protection Against Punctures
With PolyX Breaker® technology, we bring automotive know-how to bicycle tires. Polyester has been used in car tires for years, proving effective. Highly durable polyester fibers are tightly woven crosswise, achieving a high material density that makes the protection extremely resistant to foreign objects and punctures. PolyX Breaker® does not compromise the tire's rolling resistance.
DuraSkin®
Tires with DuraSkin®-reinforced sidewalls must be able to take a beating, as they are used in the most challenging conditions. For couriers, the tires are scuffed against curbs, and for touring bikes, they cross continents without wearing out. In competitive cycling, they must endure the harshest tests like Paris-Roubaix. High-quality polyamide material protects the tire's casing from harsh conditions. These tires are easily recognized by their brown sidewalls.
