Consistent Square Knobs There are numerous ways to increase the speed of a gravel tire, but consistently spaced knobs with substantial surface area is the best way to achieve it. Resolute excels in efficiency by staying on the surface of the terrain until pedaling or braking forces it to dig in. Supported Outer Knobs Rows of outer knobs are connected by a supportive base that runs the entire circumference of the tire. Additional rubber at the knob bases allow them to dig in without the unsettling feeling of a knob folding while cornering. This make the Resolute one of the most confidently cornering gravel tires in our line. TCS Tubeless-Ready TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless-ready casing, which nearly eliminates flats and allows lower tire pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tire. Available with SG2 puncture protection SG2 is our unique puncture protection technology that provides bead-to-bead coverage to ensure both the tread and sidewall are protected from slashes and punctures. The nylon fibers within SG2 feature a uniquely flat profile, which reduces the amount of rubber between fibers. Improving the fiber-to-rubber ratio increases puncture resistance, reduces weight and improves the overall liveliness of a tire. While SG2 is primarily a puncture protection layer, its tightly woven fibers also improve air retention to better maintain pressure between rides. Black or Tan Sidewalls It's nice to have options, which is why most of our gravel tires are available with either black or tan sidewalls. Traditional black sidewalls tend to blend in with the components and wheels of a bike and may look sleeker in the eyes of some riders. WTB tanwall tires blend retroesque looks with modern technology to create an iconic look that has become synonymous with high-performance gravel. Looks aside, gram counters may choose our tan tires because the compounds used to make them are slightly lighter than those used to manufacture black sidewalls. Description missing for this image.
