Sunlite MTB Raised Center Tire
Best versatile hybrid tire for casual commuters and light trail riders.
This is the perfect compromise for riders who refuse to choose between pavement speed and dirt grip. The raised center tread eliminates the drag of aggressive knobbies on asphalt, though you sacrifice some extreme traction on loose, technical singletrack in exchange for that everyday versatility.
