For those who do not want to compromise on challenging trails, in the bike park, or during racing, the Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Soft Folding Tire offers a performance-oriented mountain bike tire and E-MTB tire. The combination of radial carcass, GRAVITY PRO construction, and SOFT compound provides exceptional corner grip, high braking traction, and excellent control on demanding terrain.

With the Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Soft, you benefit from a tire design specifically developed for maximum performance on technically demanding trails – with more grip, more cushioning, and more safety.

Purpose

The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Soft Folding Tire is designed for riders seeking maximum control on challenging trails, in Enduro or downhill use, as well as on modern E-MTBs.

The radial technology allows for a particularly good adaptation to the surface. This results in increased traction in corners, better control while braking, and an enhanced feel for the trail. The GRAVITY PRO construction is aimed at riders who expect high stability and maximum performance in technical terrain.

Suitable for:

• Downhill
• Gravity
• Bike park
• Challenging Enduro trails
• E-MTB
• Technical and steep trails
• Wet and loose surfaces
• Front and rear wheel use

Advantages & Features

• ✅ Radial carcass for more contact area allows better adaptation to the surface and increases grip and control.
• ✅ Up to 30 percent larger contact area provides more traction during braking and in corners.
• ✅ Gravity Pro construction offers maximum stability for tough trails and high loads.
• ✅ Soft compound delivers strong grip in changing conditions and demanding environments.

Technologies Explained Simply

1. What does radial mean?
   In a radial carcass, the carcass threads run at a shallower angle than in traditional tire constructions. This allows the tire to adapt better to uneven surfaces. The result is more grip, more cushioning, and a larger contact area on the trail.
2. What does Gravity Pro mean?
   Gravity Pro represents a construction focused on maximum stability and control. It was developed for demanding trail, Enduro, and downhill uses where high stresses are placed on the tire and suspension.
3. What does Soft Compound mean?
   The Soft Compound is a rubber mixture for high traction and controllable handling. It offers reliable grip, especially on technical trails, roots, rocks, and changing surfaces.
4. What does TLR mean?
   TLR (Tubeless Ready) means the tire is prepared for tubeless use. This often allows for lower air pressures, which can improve traction, comfort, and puncture resistance.
5. What does E-50 mean?
   The E-50 certification indicates that the tire is designed for E-bikes and E-MTBs with higher speeds and loads.

What distinguishes this model?

The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Soft Folding Tire is distinguished by its dedicated focus on maximum gravity performance. Unlike versatile trail tires, the emphasis here is on grip, cushioning, braking traction, and stability.

Particularly, the combination of radial carcass and Gravity Pro construction sets this model apart from traditional mountain bike tires. It targets riders looking for maximum reserves in demanding terrain while benefiting from the additional grip of radial technology.

Who is the Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Soft Folding Tire made for?
