The Graphene + Silica compound provides exceptional grip in traction, and the XC Race TLR casing offers a 60TPI casing and sidewall protection for a resilient tire on the trails. The Peyote is available in two sizes to fit our riding needs best and has an aggressive tread design with excellent mud-clearing ability, as well as aggressive side knobs for cornering traction.
