Hutchinson Touareg Limited Edition Tubeless Ready Gridskin tire

The Touareg has no rules.

Whether gravel racing, bikepacking or just riding everyday, your bike can now follow wherever your adventures may take you. Hutchinson goal was to develop a gravel tyre with maximum versatility. Merging the best of road and mountain bike expertise, Hutchinson has created the Touareg: a tyre developed to meet optimal efficiency wherever in the world you are, providing the best combination of performance, grip and durability.

Small-blocks : comfort & performance on all types of terrain
The Touareg is designed to enjoy every second of the off-road adventure while maintaining strong performance upon tarmac. The worldwide versatility of the Touareg is in part thanks to the continued development in the architecture of its knobs. The smaller and more compact small-blocks contribute to comfort and performance, on both rough terrain and smooth tarmac.

Features

• Use: Gravel.
• Terrain: Dry / Mixed / Rocky.
• Numerous knobs provide multiple contact points with the ground to provide consistent performance.
• The intermediate smaller knobs are distributed further apart than those on the central part, helping to contribute to better grip and confidence when cornering.
• The tread with its « chevron » shape comes from Hutchinson’s XC background and shares DNA with the Skeleton and Kraken tyres. The knobs are more compact on the Touareg though, optimising performance even on very rough terrain.
• The side knobs of the Touareg are similar to that of the Skeleton’s design. They are linked in pairs to save weight. Their « buttresses » run down the wall to strengthen the structure during distortion and reinforce the grip.
