WTB Expanse TCS Light Fast Rolling SG2 Tubeless 700C X 32 Gravel Tire

The Expanse epitomizes a high-class road that is unfazed by uneven surfaces and long detours.. The smooth centerline and cross-hatched Expanse tread flow into minimalist outer lugs that inspire confidence no matter the road conditions.. With a reliable tubeless carcass, the Expanse delivers a smooth ride while remaining stable on unpredictable terrain.. Designed for riders who leave home with no specific destination in mind and just go... albeit at a fast pace. Smooth Centerline Efficiency: - The smooth centerline and cross-hatched Expanse tread flow into minimalist outer lugs that inspire confidence no matter the road conditions. Minimalistic knurling: - Cornering grip provided by a knurled texture that inspires confidence no matter the road conditions. Highway with high traffic volume: - Adventure Road combines pure road speed with the comfort of high-volume adventure. The 32mm casing width makes it an adventure road tire in the category somewhere between speed and fun. Compatible with tubeless tires: - TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) - This is a standardized WTB tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless casing that virtually eliminates punctures and allows lower tire pressures for improved traction and comfort compared to traditional tube-type tires. Black or beige sides: - It's nice to have a choice, so most of our gravel tires are available with black or beige sidewalls.. Traditional black sidewalls tend to blend in with the bike's components and wheels and may look sleeker to some riders.. WTB beige wall tires combine retro styling with modern technology to create an iconic look that has become synonymous with high-performance gravel.. As an aside, grammarian's may choose our tan tires because the compounds used to make them are slightly lighter than those used to make black sidewalls. About TSC: - WTB's patented tubeless sealing system, TCS (Tubeless Compatible System,) revolutionized rims and tires in 2009 by combining ETRTO, ISO and UST standards with lightweight tubeless rotating weights. Never before has a standards-based tubeless system weighed so little. Certified by Mavic in 2012 as the first sealant-based tire for the UST system, TCS continues to push the boundaries of what's possible with purpose-built tires and rims designed specifically for each cycling discipline. TCS light fast rolling (LFR): - A fast and efficient centerline tread compound combined with low-duty, sticky side lugs cover a flexible, gram-oriented carcass designed to be compatible yet off-road capable. DUAL DNA rubber compound: - Dual DNA is the perfect combination of performance, grip and durability. The center line of the tread features a harder rubber compound that boasts faster rolling and increased durability, while the side lugs are made up of a softer, slower rebounding rubber that improves control and traction. SG2 puncture protection: - TCS Light single-ply mountain tyres available with SG2 puncture protection. SG2 is a lightweight nylon layer that protects all areas of the tire with an extra level of puncture and crush protection. The SG2 bead-to-bead design also improves sidewall stability and overall tire support without the added weight of a rigid (two-layer) frame. - The flat nylon fibres in SG2 reduce the amount of rubber required to fill the spaces between the fibres compared to traditional round fibre backing layers.. Increased fiber to rubber ratio improves puncture resistance while reducing weight and improving flexibility compared to our rigid carcasses. Third-party lab testing has shown that SG2 bead-to-bead provides 80% more sidewall protection than traditional single-ply tires without SG2.
