ADRIAN SMITH
PAUL WHIBLEY
This amazing tyre with its choice of compounds has been revolutionising the off-road tyre world performance. It is undoubtedly the new benchmark whether you are out for a Sunday trail ride, or blasting at warp speed through the trees like champion riders Adrian Smith and Callan May, or our local legend Paul Whibley. Put simply, it just works: stunning grip, sure and stable under braking with great lean angles that continue to build con�dence.
