Features:

Perfect for urban environments:
– Groov-E features a reflective strip that improves safety by making cyclists more visible to motorists in urban environments. Thick tread rubber provides lasting durability while also defending against punctures.

The ultimate Hybrid E-bike tire:
– Every aspect of this tire was specifically designed to improve your riding experience on an e-bike. Groov-E maximizes durability, traction, support, motorist visibility and all-weather performance for e-bike commuters in urban environments.

Reflective strip:
– The sidewall of the Groov-E features a reflective strip to make cyclists more visible to motorists in urban environments.

Flat Guard:
– Flat Guard provides additional rubber throughout the entire casing and sidewall to deliver additional puncture protection while also ensuring it holds up to cornering on asphalt and even the occasional curb rub. Additionally, Flat Guard tires utilize an extra layer of rubber beneath the whole width of the tread to provide even more thickness in the region where the tires are most likely to encounter sharp, intrusive objects.

Water-channeling grooves:
– Grooves direct water away from the centerline of the tread to provide consistent traction even when it´s pouring rain.

Textured All-Terrain Tread:
– Grapples with the terrain for increased braking and cornering traction on pavement while also providing confidence for the occasional gravel path. Enough traction for any urban situation, but not enough to slow you down.

Tube-Type 60TPI Casing:
– 60tpi casing increases ride comfort, reduces weight and improve overall tire performance compared to a traditional 30 tpi urban tire. Our tube-type Comp tires feature a durable wire bead that require an inner tube to be installed within the tire.

Dual DNA Rubber compound:
– Dual DNA is the perfect mix of efficiency, traction and durability. The centerline tread features a firmer rubber compound that boasts faster rolling and increased durability, while the side knobs are composed of softer, slower-rebounding rubber that improves control and grip.
