WTB Trail Boss 2.4 SG2 MTB Tire

The WTB Trail Boss 2.4 tubeless tire - with SG2 Puncture Protection - is trail and enduro ride specific.

Designed to improve upon the beloved Trail Boss 2.25, the wider Trail Boss 2.4 builds on perfection with a more aggressive tread pattern to match its increased width. Generous spacing between sizable knobs provides better traction in loose or wet conditions, while staying true to its fleet-footed heritage. Large, supportive side knobs dig deeeeeeep, whether you're leaning into a corner or grabbing a handful of brake. Most often used as a rear tire, the Trail Boss 2.4 also provides plentiful traction as a front tire on hardpack trails.

Features:

• No-Compromise Tread: Some tires are semi-slick and fast while others are chunky and bite. Trail Boss is designed to be the middle ground trail tire. Tight groupings of center knobs cut down on rolling resistance without hesitating to dig in while braking. Tall outer knobs quickly provide traction in the earliest phases of cornering
• Strategically Directional Siping: Center and intermediate knobs are siped in a direction that improves accelerating and braking traction by increasing the amount of working edges that bite into the trail when you crank on the pedals or slam on the brakes. Outer knobs feature sipes that run parallel to the tire in order to provide the surface of the knobs with more cornering traction
• Rear-Focused Design: Trail Boss 2.4 features toothy knobs that maximize braking traction while their relatively tight spacing improves improve the longevity of the rear tire by increasing the total surface area counteracting heavy braking forces. Substantial side knobs overhang the sidewall of the tire to protect it from slashes while you're steering with the rear
• TCS (Tubeless Compatible System): WTB's standardized tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless casing, which nearly eliminates flats and allows lower tire pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tire

SG2 Puncture Protection:

SG2 is unique puncture protection technology that provides bead-to-bead coverage to ensure both the tread and sidewall are protected from slashes and punctures. The nylon fibers within SG2 feature a uniquely flat profile, which reduces the amount of rubber between fibers. Improving the fiber-to-rubber ratio increases puncture resistance, reduces weight and improves the overall liveliness of a tire. While SG2 is primarily a puncture protection layer, its tightly woven fibers also improve air retention to better maintain pressure between rides.

TriTec Compound:

The more layers of rubber present in the tread, the better control riders have over the ride characteristics. TriTec compound features three layers to provide optimal levels of traction, support, and durability. A base of high durometer rubber supports the entire tread and is capped by medium stiffness center knobs and softer side knobs.
