Description

Buy more and save with this handy 2-Pack performance tire bundle. Bundled in retail packaging and carries full manufacturer warranty.

Conventional wisdom on bicycle tires long held that smaller is better. Now we know differently. Smaller tires were supposed to be lighter, more aerodynamic and have lower rolling resistance. Then came science. Research has shown that a larger tire has the ability to cut rolling resistance, making you faster than you would be with a traditional 23mm wide racing tire. And of course, a larger tire offers improved grip in dry and wet conditions. Increasing width in rims, even clincher models, has helped drive the push towards higher volume tires as. As we all know now when matched with the proper width rim, a bigger tire also can improve aerodynamics. For racing or everyday riding, comfort gets a big upgrade as well from the larger volume and lower pressures commonly run versus a low volume tire.

The Zipp Tangente Course R28 tire gives riders a high performance clincher at widths suitable for less than perfect conditions such as rough roads, wet roads. The ongoing disc brake revolution complements the wider rim/higher volume story as well, and now even many road framesets allow you to run tires significantly larger than the 25mm max that was common until very recently. The Tangente Course R28 tires takes allows you to take the opportunity for increased tire width and multiplies that with faster rolling, better grip and improved aerodynamics.
