First Look: Schwalbe Tacky Chan Tire - Mountain Bike Feature

Schwalbe’s Magic Mary tire has been a dominant force in gravity-focused riding and racing for nearly a decade. Besides casing and compound construction updates, the tread design and tire as we know it has remained unchanged. And for good reasons: the popular knob layout offers exceptional grip and cornering bite in nearly every terrain with ample dead space to clear mud in variable weather conditions. But, like all good things, they eventually change or evolve.

Optimised 100% for precision. 10% more stable shoulder lugs compared to the brilliant Magic Mary for even more aggressive cornering. Long braking edges allow later braking point. Open shoulder area provides direct feedback and improves self-cleaning. Ramps on centre lugs for optimal rolling characteristics. On average 8% lighter than the Magic Mary. Produced with fair trade rubber.
