WTB tire TRAIL BOSS 2.4 27.5'' TCS Tough High Grip SG1 black

Product description

Everything important about this tire is already in its name. The Trail Boss is at home on... well, yes... on the trails! The tread pattern of the central part minimizes rolling resistance for fast riding, that is, until the brake allows it to grip properly. The outer knobs provide traction in corners and on uneven surfaces. The wider Trail Boss comes with a more aggressive tread design that matches its increased volume, providing even better traction in poor conditions and wet terrain. Want to tackle your favorite singletrack and dominate it? Then be the Trail Boss. Compatible with e-bikes.

The Trail Boss is typically used as a rear tire paired with the WTB Vigilante in the front.

New SG1 protection.

SG1 represents the toughest and most durable protection technology ever to be paired with WTB’s iconic Trail Boss, Vigilante, Judge and Verdict treads, taking the proven dual-ply ‘Tough’ option to an entirely new level.
Added puncture protection runs beneath the entire tread cap making the tire more resilient against sharp objects lurking in the dirt. But the fortification does not stop there. With a clear goal of strengthening the most vulnerable areas of a tire, WTB has introduced their new Inner Peace + technology, tripling the height of it’s apex bead protection for SG1. This enhancement not only shields the tire bead from damage, but also significantly bolsters the sidewall structure.

TriTec compound

TriTec uses three rubber compounds to provide different levels of traction, support, and durability based on their placement in the tire. The entire tread pattern is supported by a base made of highly durable rubber, extending up to halfway up the tread knobs, allowing for the use of softer compounds in the knobs without deforming under cornering forces. The top part of the center knobs consists of a medium-hard durometer compound that ensures traction and durability without sacrificing rolling efficiency, while the outer knobs are made of the softest compound, providing maximum grip and slow rebound.
