WTB Vulpine TCS 700x36c Light/Fast Roll Gravel Tyre

WTB Vulpine TCS 700x36c Light/Fast Roll Gravel Tyre

Introducing the WTB Vulpine TCS 700x36c Light/Fast Roll Gravel Tyre, the newest addition to WTB's race-focused gravel tire lineup. Designed with a focus on speed and efficiency, the Vulpine offers exceptional performance for gravel racers aiming to lead the pack, as well as daily riders seeking an efficient tire for a variety of surfaces including pavement, hardpack, and gravel. With its carefully designed tread pattern and lightweight construction, the Vulpine prioritizes all-out efficiency without compromising climbing or braking traction.

Efficiency with Minimal Rolling Resistance: The Vulpine features tightly spaced center knobs that form a nearly uninterrupted centerline, significantly reducing rolling resistance. This design promotes efficient forward motion, allowing you to maintain speed and conserve energy during your rides. By minimizing rolling resistance, the Vulpine ensures that you can push the limits of your performance on any terrain.

Optimized Tread for Performance and Traction: The tread pattern of the Vulpine is designed to deliver a perfect balance between efficiency and traction. The rest of the tread is packed with short knobs that enhance efficiency, minimize the risk of punctures, and provide predictable cornering traction. This combination allows you to confidently navigate corners and technical sections while maintaining speed and control. With the Vulpine, you can push your limits without compromising your confidence.

Versatile Performance on Multiple Surfaces: The Vulpine is a versatile gravel tire that excels on various surfaces. Whether you're riding on pavement, hardpack, or gravel, the Vulpine delivers consistent performance and reliable traction. Its ability to adapt to different terrains makes it an ideal choice for both race-focused riders and daily enthusiasts looking for an efficient tire that can handle diverse riding conditions.

Features

Features of WTB Vulpine TCS 700x36c Light/Fast Roll Gravel Tyre

Efficient Knob Spacing: Tightly spaced center knobs form a nearly uninterrupted centerline that decreases rolling resistance while the rest of the tread is packed with short knobs to further promote efficiency and minimize punctures.

Fast Centerline: The smooth rolling surface of the Vulpine reduces rolling resistance and improves tread longevity, resulting in a longer lifespan than other gravel tires.

Round Profile: Overall knob profile mimics a high-volume road tire, which provides equal cornering confidence in a variety of different terrains and conditions.

Dual DNA Compound: The Vulpine tread features Dual DNA Compound, which combines the strategically placed characteristics of two different rubber compounds within the tread of a single tire. Supportive centerline rubber delivers optimal rolling efficiency and tread longevity while softer rubber throughout the outer edges of the tread increases cornering confidence across varied terrain and conditions.

Tubeless Compatible: TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless rim/tire system. TCS tubeless compatible tires eliminate the need for tubes, reduces weight, and accommodates lower tire pressures for improved traction and comfort compared to a traditional tube-type tire.

Technologies

Technologies of WTB Vulpine TCS 700x36c Light/Fast Roll Gravel Tyre

TCS: TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is our industry-leading tubeless rim/tire system designed to international ETRTO and ISO standards.

Light Casing: One layer of supple, gram-conscious casing conforms to the terrain to provide maximum performance, exceptional reliability and low rotational weight.

Fast Rolling Compound: Specifically formulated to prioritize rolling efficiency while also providing dependable traction and lasting durability. 

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 needed to fill the gaps 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, the 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.
