Rene Herse 29″ x 2.2″ (700C x 55) Fleecer Ridge TC Tyre

Rene Herse 29″ x 2.2″ (700C x 55) Fleecer Ridge TC TyreThe ultimate tire for bikepacking and gravel adventures – and recipient of Bikepacking.com’s coveted ‘Gear of the Year’ award for the ‘Best New Component.’ Developed together with bikepacking legend Lael Wilcox, the Fleecer Ridge measures 29″ x 2.2″ (or 700C x 55 mm), making it a perfect fit for bikepacking and mountain bikes.We name our tires after the passes that inspire them: Fleecer Ridge is the toughest climb on the incredible Tour Divide that traverses the Rocky Mountains from Canada to the Mexican border. On a ride that long, you’ll need a tire that can handle a huge range of conditions, from snow and mud via fast gravel to pavement as you descend into towns to resupply.The Fleecer Ridge grips like a knobby when conditions get tough. On pavement, it rolls like a slick tire thanks to its large and strategically placed knobs that don’t squirm and always put the same amount of rubber on the road. The Fleecer Ridge is the world’s first bicycle tire with noise cancellation: The staggered tread blocks create overlapping noise frequencies that partially cancel each other.The Standard casing is our more affordable option: comfortable and fast, yet also strong to withstand considerable abuse. The Extralight casing takes the performance, comfort and feel of your bike to an entirely new level. The Endurance casing is reinforced for extra sidewall protection and puncture resistance, while retaining the speed and comfort for which Rene Herse tires are famous. The Endurance Plus casing provides the ultimate in sidewall protection for extremely tough conditions.SpecificationsTechnical SpecsCasingAll models feature:Clincher, folding beadTubeless-compatibleRecommended rim: 19 – 30 mm (inner width), hookless or with hooksMaximum pressure with tubes: 55 psi (3.8 bar)Maximum recommended pressure – tubeless: 55 psi (3.8 bar)Actual width on 21 mm rim (internal): approx. 56 mmActual width on 23 mm rim (internal): approx. 57 mmExtralight casing: 1 mm widthTubeless: 0.5 mm widthMade in JapanStandard casingSupple casingTan sidewalls570 gExtralight casingUltra-light, ultra-supple casingThe ultimate in speed and comfortTan sidewalls520 gEndurance casingThe same ultra-fine threads as our Extralight casing, but in a denser, stronger weaveProtective belt under sidewalls and treadIdeal for rough gravel and tough conditionsDark tan sidewalls615 gEndurance Plus casingExtra-tough casing with ultra-strong threadsProtective belt under sidewalls and treadThe ultimate in sidewall protectionDark tan sidewalls625 g
