WTB is launching its Exposure 700x 30c and 34c tyres at Taipei Cycle Show.
Aiming for road tyres that quicken the pace, yet hold it together when a ride veers from smooth surfaces, WTB’s Exposure 700 x 30c and 34c tyres are being launched today at day one of Taipei Cycle Show. Additionally, WTB is providing a first look at its versatile and fast rolling Riddler 700 x 37c and 45c tyres during the show, bringing the proven Riddler tread pattern to gravel explorers or cyclocross race bikes.
Road Plus
The Horizon Road Plus tyre promises supple plus-size traction and smooth riding characteristics, featuring a smooth centerline and all-weather herringbone pattern with cornering channels. High-volume road provides a svelte performance on pavement, WTB said, with resiliency that isn’t shaken by dusty dirt roads.
Road Plus retains the same geometry as existing endurance road bikes but adds a high volume, tubeless 650b wheel and tyre in place of a 700c. With the 650b x 47c Horizon Plus having the same overall diameter as a 700 x 28c tyre, it only requires a little more chainstay clearance than a traditional road tyre.
