S-Works Terra 2Bliss Tire

Gripton T7 is a specialized rubber compound designed for tires that enhances grip and traction, particularly in challenging conditions like mud and wet surfaces. This formulation allows for better control and stability while riding, making it an excellent choice for cyclists who frequently encounter variable terrains.

Grid Race sidewall protection features a cross-woven nylon mesh that reinforces the tire's sidewalls, making them more resistant to cuts and punctures. This technology helps maintain tire integrity during rough rides, reducing the risk of sidewall damage and ensuring a safer cycling experience.

TPI, or Threads Per Inch, measures the density of threads in the tire casing. A higher TPI, like 120, indicates a more flexible and lighter tire, which can enhance ride quality and performance. This means you can enjoy a smoother ride while still benefiting from durability, making it a key factor in selecting the right tire for your needs.

Tubeless-ready tires can be mounted directly onto compatible rims without an inner tube, using a special sealant instead. This setup reduces the risk of punctures and allows for lower tire pressures, which can improve traction and comfort on various terrains. It’s a great option for cyclists looking to enhance their riding experience.

A tire with a folding bead is constructed from flexible materials that allow it to be easily folded for storage and transport. This feature is particularly beneficial for cyclists who need to carry a spare tire or want to save space in their gear. It combines convenience with practicality, making it easier to manage your cycling equipment.

The combination of Gripton T7 for grip, Grid Race sidewall protection for durability, high TPI for performance, tubeless-ready design for puncture resistance, and folding bead for portability all contribute to a superior cycling experience. These features work together to enhance safety, comfort, and efficiency, allowing you to focus on enjoying your ride.
