Schwalbe Albert Tire - 27.5 x 2.50, Tubeless, Folding, Black, Evolution Line, Gravity Pro, Addix Soft, Radial

The Albert tire provides excellent grip and control in all situations. A new Radial carcass allows for a larger contact patch and conforms to terrain yielding more grip, more comfort, and more control to keep you on the trail.

• Tread Pattern optimized for radial carcass: Many lugs for maximum grip and great durability
• Closed and round profile for more control and special knob pattern for continuous grip that excels in hard-packed terrain
• Literally sticks to the ground as the tire deforms more precisely
• Radial carcass tires offer approximately 30% more contact area than conventional tires at the same air pressure. Even if the air pressure is increased by 50%, the contact area is still 15% larger
• The carcass material overlaps for a shorter time and with less tension. As a result, the tire deforms more selectively and can react much more flexibly and adaptably to unevenness without sacrificing control
• The increased contact area and the more flexible response behavior provide significantly more grip, more damping, more control and more comfort

THE ADVANTAGES OF RADIAL

• Carcass threads at a more obtuse angle than other tires
• 30% more contact area with the same air pressure
• More grip, more damping, more control

WHAT DOES RADIAL MEAN?

The basis for this is the completely rethought construction of the carcass. The carcass threads, which run diagonally across the tire at a 45° angle in conventional bicycle tires, are arranged at a much more obtuse angle in our radial tires. This technology opens up a completely new dimension in the function of bicycle tires.
