With 17 World Cup victories in just two seasons and Amaury Pierron's 2022 overall title, the Tacky Chan's race pedigree speaks for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Radial carcass threads are woven closer to 90 degrees rather than the conventional 45, creating a 30% larger contact patch at the same air pressure for more grip, more damping, and more control on aggressive lines and high-speed descents. Exclusive to the 2.5\" width, the Radial construction is paired with a refined tread featuring wider-spaced knobs and a tighter shoulder gap for improved intermediate cornering behavior, especially when run up front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadial carcass laid up at 90 degrees delivers a 30% larger contact patch at the same air pressure for more grip, more damping, and more control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRedesigned tread pattern with wider-spaced knobs and a reduced shoulder gap for improved intermediate cornering behavior, especially when mounted on the front wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen shoulder area provides direct feedback and improved self-cleaning lugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong braking edges allow for later braking points coming into corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRamps on center lugs for optimal rolling characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE50 rated tires are designed to withstand the additional weight and forces of e-bikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCasing \u0026amp; Compound Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGravity Pro Radial\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally developed for the Downhill World Cup, the Gravity Pro Radial delivers maximum stability, full puncture protection, and uncompromising precision.
