27.5 x 2.8 schwalbe rocket ron previously installed
The Schwalbe Rocket Ron 27.5 x 2.80 is a high-volume, lightweight "plus-sized" cross-country and trail mountain bike tire designed to balance low rolling resistance with massive traction.
The Performance Line version of this massive plus-size tire is built specifically for durability and reliable traction under high volume.
• Dual Compound Rubber: Unlike the specialized Addix Speedgrip found on the top-tier racing versions, this configuration relies on Schwalbe's traditional dual compound matrix engineered for maximum tread life and structural stability on rocky terrain.
• Performance Casing: Utilizes a standard, thick multi-ply nylon casing designed to hold shapes at extremely low tire pressures (typically run between 15–25 PSI on plus-bikes) without suffering from sidewall squirm or folding over under heavy cornering.
• Tread Pattern: Retains the classic open Rocket Ron XC layout. It features sharp, well-spaced center blocks that offer excellent self-cleaning capabilities in wet or muddy soil paired with sturdy shoulder blocks that bite directly into loose dirt during tight turns.
• Bead Configuration: Most commonly supplied as a folding tier variant optimized for tubeless conversion with standard liquid tire sealants.
