We adapted our all-conditions Taipan rear tire to be the ultimate pick for Plus and e-bike setups. Our two-ply reinforced SpiderTech casing provides a consistent, stable connection to the trail under power, braking, or cornering. The variable-height tread knobs result in squirm-free power transfer and confident traction in the most demanding conditions. The 2.8-inch width hits the sweet spot for increased flotation, grip, and control at a reasonable weight.

66 TPI Technology

The perfect balance of low weight and rolling resistance for most mountain bike tires, our 66tpi casing provides the consistent grip and control you need on any trail.

Bi-compound technology

Thanks to our road and mountain bike expertise, we have developed a bi-compound meant to meet worldwide versatility: ensuring maximum comfort and safety on rough terrains as well as performance, either on or off-road. A softer and more flexible side compound reinforce the grip and deformation, while the central harder compound ensures rolling performance.

Spider-Tech technology

Oversize “Plus” tires need a casing design to match their size. Our SpiderTech construction was designed specifically for our Koloss+ series. The double-thickness casing increases sidewall stiffness to limit tire squirm at low pressure and offer a quicker steering response. Optimal casing deflection maximizes tire contact patch so you get the full benefit of fatter rubber, and anti-puncture reinforcement under the tread limits flats from thorns and other objects.
