Alternating rows of center knobs improve the distribution of load across the contact patch for enhanced grip on slippery slabs and roots, while still digging into loose terrain, and self-cleaning effectively Wider center knob rows provide a smoother, more predictanble transition through lean angles, to the hard-biting sidewall knobs, and improve wear life Center knob sipes alternate between parallel and perpendicular, balancing stability while transitioning from straight line to cornering, generous braking traction, and bite on climbs and descents Center knobs and sidewall knobs are engineered to reduce fold-over under high speed cornering forces Sidewall knobs feature angled sipes to soften the corners, and arched cutaways with accordion sipes on the sides, to increase flexibility and control deformation Puncture resistant nylon breakers under the tread, dual-ply nylon casings, and tubeless inserts Mopo compound features an incredibly soft and tacky (42 shore) outer layer across the entire tread for maximum grip, over a medium hardness base layer for stability and speed Show more
