The Byway Road Plus tire allows riders to find comfort on remote gravel roads without being slowed down on the pavement required to reach them. Staying true to its road usage, a slick centerline borders angular hatching to keep everything smooth on sections of pavement. Intermediate, diamond-shaped peaks provide steadfast traction under power, while consistent and more substantial knobs extend down the side to protect it against ill-intentioned rocks or gashes while exploring new areas.Road Plus TCS: Sealant optimized lightweight casing with folding TCS aramid bead and Dual Compound DNA rubber.
