The Raddler Tyre is arranged similarly to WTB’s popular and super-speedy Riddler gravel and CX tyre, but with a bit more bite and better drainage for coping with rough and slick conditions.
This balance is achieved by blending a semi-slick tread, with close, short knobs in the centreline, with larger outer knobs that offer support during cornering and are both spaced apart and bisected by sipes, to help the tyre shed mud and water and its improve traction by doubling the working edges.
Add in a tubeless-ready, high-volume casing, available in 40 and 44mm widths, and you have a seriously hard-wearing gravel tyre that is resistant to flats and will stomp over loose, wet tracks with great efficiency.
SG2 puncture protection is an optional extra to make this already formidable, fast yet rowdy tyre, dubbed “incredibly capable” by BikeRadar, even more versatile.
