A limited quantity of all-black tires is available for pre-order (delivery in early September). To order other products together with the pre-ordered tires, please place a separate order. Otherwise, your entire order will be held until the pre-ordered tires are ready. (Sorry, we cannot split orders.) Our most iconic 650B tire has a perfect balance of on-pavement grip and off-pavement volume. Babyshoe Pass is remote pass nestled between the great volcanoes of Loowit (Mount St. Helens) and Klickitat (Mount Adams). It provides a back-door way from Seattle to Portland, avoiding the crowded Puget Lowland. These tires roll as fast as racing tires on the paved lower sections of the climb up Babyshoe Pass, yet float over the gravel on the higher parts. They are surefooted on the descent to Trout Lake, where you can enjoy the famous huckleberry shakes at the local food spot. The supple casing of Rene Herse all-road tires rolls smoothly over surface irregularities. The tread pattern interlocks with the road surface for superior cornering grip, wet or dry. The tread has enough thickness in the center to last thousands of miles, but it's thin and supple on the shoulders where it doesn't wear.
