Unleash your inner trailblazer with the 27.5 x 2.80 Hutchinson Taipan Koloss Tubeless Ready Folding Tyre—the ultimate companion for your wildest rides. This “plus sized” marvel isn’t just a pretty face; it's engineered for those who refuse to be tamed by terrain.
Featuring a modified tread pattern from the original Taipan, the Koloss delivers stellar traction without the dragging sensation of a snail on a lazy Sunday. Its fragmented centre knobs are designed with a purpose: to keep you rolling swiftly while expertly flinging mud in the face of adversity. Meanwhile, the sculpted lateral knobs give you the grip you need for those heart-stopping moments—breaking and gripping like a pro! This tyre doesn't just cope with varying conditions; it revels in them. Whether you're charging through dry dust or squelching through sludgy puddles, it’s got your back.
This tubeless-ready beauty boasts a folding bead design, a robust 66 TPI casing, and weighs in at a featherweight 900 grams. Who needs gym memberships when you can boost your fitness by riding?
