Description

The WTB ThickSlick FG tire employs a burly reinforced casing designed to withstand the roughest urban conditions, while the slick no-nonsense design provides the bite you need in the concrete jungle.

Features
  • Twice the rubber equates to twice the lifespan of an average tire and a smoother ride due to rubber's natural absorption qualities
  • Smooth rubber allows the tread surface to conform to the roughness of urban asphalt without knobs to slow you down
  • Thick rubber casing provides puncture protection from glass, pins, staples and other urban unpleasantries
  • Flat Guard (FG) provides additional rubber throughout the entire casing and sidewall to deliver additional puncture protection while holding up to cornering
  • FG adds an extra layer of rubber under the width of the tread for more thickness where the tire is most likely to encounter sharp objects
  • Proprietary DNA compound balances rolling efficiency and traction on a wide range of riding conditions
  • Ideal for pavement
