Schwalbe Albert Gravity Pro Radial Ultra Soft MTB Folding Tyre - Black - 29 Inch

Is it possible to develop flexible tyres with maximum utilization of the contact area that offer even more grip, safety and comfort?

Yes, it is!

RADIAL REVOLUTION: REDEFINING MOUNTAIN BIKE TYRES

The latest development from the Schwalbe LAB: With the innovative radial tire technology two new MTB tires are coming onto the market. The basis for this new technology is the completely rethought carcass construction.

• More grip: for even more safety
• More comfort: thanks to more cushioning
• Larger contact surface: on the ground

THE ADVANTAGES OF RADIAL

• Carcass threads at a more obtuse angle than other tyres
• 30% more contact area with the same air pressure
• More grip, more damping, more safety

WHAT DOES RADIAL MEAN?
The basis for this is the completely rethought construction of the carcass. The carcass threads, which run diagonally across the tire at a 45° angle in conventional bicycle tires, are arranged at a much more obtuse angle in our radial tires. This technology opens up a completely new dimension in the function of bicycle tyres.

The structure of radial tyres
With our radial tyres, we are turning the MTB world on its head. We have always asked ourselves the following question during development: How can we make the best possible use of the limited contact area of a tyre? The basis for this is the completely rethought construction of the carcass. The carcass threads, which run diagonally across the tire at a 45° angle in conventional bicycle tyres, are arranged at a much more obtuse angle in our radial tyres. This technology opens up a completely new dimension in the function of bicycle tyres.
