HUTCHINSON TOUAREG TR GRAVEL TIRES
When designing the Touareg Gravel Tire Hutchinson drew on both their road and mountain bike tire heritage to make the most versatile product possible. The tread pattern uses small blocks that are spaced closer together in a chevron along the centreline for lower rolling resistance along with more widely spaced shoulder blocks for cornering grip off-road. Additionally, the side knobs are paired up to save weight and they run partially down the sidewalls to add strength. Hardskin reinforcement adds resilience against punctures and the tire can be used tubeless or tubed.
