Looking for a set-it-and-forget-it plus tire? Meet the Ranger 2.8/3.0. Tightly spaced center knobs set the pace while open outer lugs devour corners and shed muck with ease. Completing the package, multi-directional knob siping ensures the Ranger will grab hold through technical climbs and high-speed corners. Its high-volume casing increases rider confidence as it conforms to the trail and increases traction. Ranger 2.8/3.0 is trail ready and bikepacking approved.
- USAGE: Trail - Bikepacking
MULTI-DIRECTIONAL SIPING
- Knob siping in a variety of directions provides improved traction whether you're pedaling, braking or cornering. Siping also improves traction on wet rocks and roots by increasing the amount of working edges on each knob contacting the trail.
MUD-SHEDDING DESIGN
- Substantial spacing between knobs allows room for mud to fling from the tire rather than clinging on to the thread. Open spacing allows the knobs to always be in contact with the trail rather than being covered with sticky mud.
SMALL KNOBS, BIG VOLUME
- The high-volume tread of the Ranger 2.8/3.0 is covered in small, short knobs to deliver the traction of knobbier tires, but without the increased rolling resistance that accompanies chunkier knobs. This makes the Ranger 2.8/3.0 an excellent tire choice for trail riding or bikepacking.
TUBELESS COMPATIBLE
- TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless casing, which nearly eliminates flats and allows lower tire pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tire.
TRITEC COMPOUND
- TriTec blends three distinct rubber compounds to provide different levels of traction, support and durability based on their placement within the tread. High durometer rubber provides a foundation for the entire tread pattern and even extends slightly into the base of each knob to provide additional support below the softer compounds used in the remainder of each knob. Center knobs feature a medium durometer compound to provide traction and durability without sacrificing rolling efficiency, while outer knobs feature the softest compound for maximum grip and slow rebound characteristics.
SG2 PUNCTURE PROTECTION
- TCS Light single-ply mountain tires are available with SG2 puncture protection. SG2 is a lightweight nylon layer that protects all areas of the tire with an additional level of defense against punctures and pinch flats. Bead-to-bead SG2 also improves sidewall stability and overall tire support without the additional weight of a Tough (dual-ply) casing.
