Turbo Cotton, completely self-developed Casing combined with GRIPTON® compound, both materials stand for master craftsmanship, and they work in harmony to reflect Specialized®'s dedication. Specialized® Bicycle Components (2012-2015) Development of GRIPTON® compound, with extremely low rolling resistance and superior cornering traction. No need for compromise.Ĭontinental® Reifen Deutschland GmbH (2005-2011) Development of Black Chili Compound®, the decisive guarantee for the success of Continental®'s high-quality bicycle tires. ToGuard protects fromīead-to-bead, making a light, fast tire with puncture resistance. Those tires are slower, heavier and uncomfortable. Makers only put protection in the tread, leaving sidewalls highly vulnerable. Belts don't provide complete coverage, they only protect the belted area.

Slowing you down! ToGuard's surface-to-shell compound protection enables more flexibility and lower These cause stiffer overall tires which are uncomfortable to ride, and cause higher rolling resistance, Puncture protection belts are stiff because they try to offer more protection with a thinner layer.ToGuard resists embedding the object in the first place. If not immediately removed, the object will keep cutting into the belt until even the strongestīelted tire goes flat. Other tires with a puncture protection belt have an exterior soft layer can hold tiny embedded sharp.Other tires that use interior protection "belts" for a number of reasons: ToGuard Compound is designed to be inherently puncture resistant. Superior Real-world Puncture Protection Design Wolfpack Tires with ToGuard CompoundĪbsorb less deflection energy, providing reduced rolling resistance from all other tires using his previousĬompounds. Rolling resistance is not just a characteristic of grip, rolling resistance is most improved by reducingĮnergy absorbed by tire deflection. This allows the rider to reach a higher maximum edge of performance, enhancing overall speedĪnd reducing total time. It increases grip across theĮntire tread surface area, providing a tire that improves turning and stopping. ToGuard Compound is engineered for tread surface contact.
