The Schwalbe Shredda Front Evolution Tubeless Radial Tire is built for the steepest uphill passages, a genuine departure from gravity tires designed around descending. A radial carcass gives the tire roughly 30 percent more ground contact than a standard tire at the same pressure, and here that extra contact area goes toward finding traction on loose, steep climbing terrain rather than holding a line through a corner or a braking bump. The open, deep tread profile is specifically shaped around the radial carcass, built to dig into soft surfaces exactly where a climb needs it most. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I hit a loose, steep pitch that's cost me traction on every other front tire I've run, and this one just kept finding grip the harder I pedaled into it. That's a tire solving a problem most gravity tires never even try to address."
