GRAVEL GRINDER Pro - Handmade Tubeless Tubular
$104.99
The Gravel Grinder is our original and often-imitated fast gravel design. It combines a speedy diamond center for low rolling resistance with aggressive shoulder knobs that reliably hook-up when the terrain gets soft, muddy or a bit sketchy.
This handmade PRO version combines a supple, 260TPI Super Polyester casing with our durable SmartPlus compound.
A tubeless tubular is glued to the rim just like a regular tubular and from the outside there is no way to detect a difference, but an interior coating makes sewing an inner tube inside the tire unnecessary. This "tubular without a tube" offers next-level protection from pinch flats or punctures when combined with Challenge Smart Tubeless Sealant

What are the features that make it awesome?
SERIES – PRO
Everyday Luxury – Our workhorse handmade tire is the PRO series, delivering performance and ride feel unmatched by traditional vulcanized tires. Perfect for the rigors of daily riding.
CASING – Super Polyester 260TPI
Super Polyesters with higher thread counts of 220-300tpi make up our most affordable handmade casings. Polyester is much softer and stronger then nylon, is impervious to water and quite durable.
CASING PROTECTION – Silver
Our handmade Super Polyester, Corespun Cotton and Silk casings are tougher than Nylon and offer a margin of increased cut resistance when compared to standard vulcanized tires.
TREAD COMPOUND – SMARTplus
A tougher and more cut-resistant rubber compound for the demands of gravel and rough terrain. SMARTplus wears longer to keep tread edges sharper, improving confidence over mixed surfaces.
PUNCTURE PROTECTION – PPS2
Our tires designed for use on rough roads, cobbles and gravel are built with an additional layer of PPS (PPS2) on the inside of the casing.
