What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The Connector is my go-to when I'm heading out with no plan and expect everything from paved roads to singletrack. Tubeless setup was super easy, and once dialed, these tires grip hard in corners but still roll fast on smoother sections. Super versatile and tough enough for real backcountry."The Goodyear Connector tubeless-ready tire is a quiver-killer for mixed-surface gravel riders who need consistent performance on everything from chunky fire roads to smooth tarmac. Designed to thrive on all-day adventures and exploratory loops, it features a fast-rolling centerline tread that flies on flat roads, while the widely spaced shoulder knobs confidently bite into dirt, loose gravel, and even mild singletrack. The Connector balances volume, durability, and control. Its 60tpi tubeless-ready casing with Goodyear's trusted Dynamic:A/T rubber compound keeps it supple over rocks and roots without sacrificing speed or puncture resistance. Whether we're pedaling deep into the backcountry or linking up pavement and trails on a lunch ride, this tire stays planted and keeps momentum high.
