420/1 Control Casing
'Our Control MTB tyres meet the needs of the most demanding trail riders. They're tuned to provide unprecedented control, durability and reduced pinch flats without taking a toll on weight and responsiveness. Available in multiple tread patterns and sizes, all Control series tires feature our new 420/D1 casing to increase puncture and cut resistance by 15% over our S-Works series and 12% over our previously offered Pro tires, while adding as little as 35 grams to the tyre's already lightweight design. The durable casing construction with aramid beads and dual compound tread provides great rolling and long-lasting wear without sacrificing traction or cornering ability. Couple all of this with our 2Bliss design, and you have the best trail tyre available…we guarantee it.'
