Challenge Folding Clincher Tyre Grifo Race 700 x 33mm Black

If you're looking to upgrade the tyres that came fitted to your cyclo-cross bike, the Grifo is also an excellent choice.

Tyre selection is important in cyclo-cross. Top racers will have a truckload of tyres designed to excel in specific conditions, but if you want just one tyre that copes well with the usual range of conditions one can expect to encounter the Grifo is a really good choice. Away from the road the tyre finds good grip on grass, dirt and gravel, and performs well in all but the very muddiest conditions. Straight line speed is excellent on firmer trails and roads, and there's good grip on the corners when you bank the bike over. Even at low pressures the tyres' construction is solid and stands up to abusive riding. There is much to recommend about the Grifo Race Clincher. Once you have a set you'll understand why.
