Those who are navigating the most demanding trails and seek uncompromising grip will find a true specialist for gravity use in the Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Ultrasoft Folding Tire. This performance-oriented mountain bike tire and E-MTB tire combines the benefits of innovative radial technology with maximum stability and exceptional traction. The result: more grip, more cushioning, more control, and more safety when the trail gets really challenging.

The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Ultrasoft is designed for riders who do not want their line choice dictated by the surface. Instead, it offers maximum braking traction, strong corner grip, and a high level of control on steep and technical terrain.

Intended Use

The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Ultrasoft Folding Tire targets ambitious gravity, downhill, and enduro riders as well as E-MTB pilots who are out on the most demanding trails.

Its special strength lies in the combination of radial casing, gravity pro construction, and ultrasoft compound. This creates a particularly large contact area with the ground, which significantly improves traction, cushioning, and control.

Suitable for:

• Downhill
• Gravity
• Bikepark
• Technical enduro trails
• Challenging E-MTB applications
• Wet roots and rocky fields
• Steep and loose surfaces
• Front and rear wheel

Technologies Explained Simply

1. What does radial mean?
   The radial casing is a special tire construction in which the casing threads run at a flatter angle. This allows the tire to adapt better to the surface at specific points. It improves grip, cushioning, and control while providing a larger contact area on the trail.
2. What does Gravity Pro mean?
   Gravity Pro is the most stable version within this usage area. It was developed for tough downhill and gravity conditions and offers maximum stability on technically challenging trails.
3. What does Ultra Soft Compound mean?
   Ultra Soft is the stickiest compound variation in the gravity range. The rubber mixture was developed for maximum traction on difficult surfaces and provides a particularly high level of safety in corners as well as during braking.
4. What does TLR mean?
   TLR (Tubeless Ready) means that the tire is prepared for tubeless use. This often allows lower air pressures, improves traction, and reduces the risk of pinch flats.
5. What does E-50 mean?
   The E-50 approval designates tires that are designed for higher loads of modern E-bikes and E-MTBs.

What differentiates this model?

The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Radial Gravity Pro Ultrasoft Folding Tire is clearly aimed at riders who seek the maximum in traction and control. Compared to more versatile trail tires, the focus here is not on efficiency for long tours but on performance on demanding descents.

The combination of radial technology, gravity pro construction, and ultrasoft compound makes this model particularly interesting for riders who place high value on maximum corner grip, the highest braking traction, and a lot of safety.
