Schwalbe Albert Bike Tire

The Albert tire provides excellent grip and control in all situations. A new Radial carcass allows for a larger contact patch and conforms to terrain yielding more grip, more comfort, and more control to keep you on the trail. Tread Pattern optimized for radial carcass: Many lugs for maximum grip and great durability Closed and round profile for more control and special knob pattern for continuous grip that excels in hard-packed terrain Literally sticks to the ground as the tire deforms more precisely Radial carcass tires offer approximately 30% more contact area than conventional tires at the same air pressure. Even if the air pressure is increased by 50%, the contact area is still 15% larger The carcass material overlaps for a shorter time and with less tension. As a result, the tire deforms more selectively and can react much more flexibly and adaptably to unevenness without sacrificing control
