The Carapace casing is designed for moderate to rough terrain with durability and protection in mind. Coupled with a compound that won't sacrifice rolling resistance, we've created a tire that provides flat-free confidence with the speed and braking grip of the unique hex tread pattern. Also - bead-to-bead Kevlar protection ensures that sharp rocks won't cut your sidewall making a long day unnecessarily longer. Available in 40, 44, 48mm widths with scaled tread. Recommended for hardpack, mixed, and loose conditions. Tubeless ready. Durable and adventure ready. Features: - Hexagonal tread pattern with detached progressive spacing for improved rolling performance and debris clearing - Independent tracking with de-coupled tread blocks for maximum traction and rolling performance - Cat-tongue tread feature for driving and braking traction - Kevlar full protection for both tread and sidewall - Anti-pinch bumper and chafer strip on the bead - Optimized for hookless rim design
