Features of the Challenge Chicane Pro Handmade Clincher

Pro Handmade Clincher with Superpoly casing

Handcrafted tyres combine a variety of outstanding features to offer maximum comfort and minimum rolling resistance. Carefully selected materials are used in the various tyre levels according to usage performance requirements. Soft, supple carcasses quickly adapt to the shape of the ground during rolling and cornering. This increases ground contact and grip and improves shock absorption on poor road surfaces. Soft, natural rubber treads are combined with lightweight, flexible puncture protection.
Polyester is the least expensive of all handmade carcasses. It is a synthetic fabric that is very strong and waterproof, offering much more flexibility and durability than comparable nylon materials. Challenge uses high quality polyester or SuperPoly (higher TPI polyester) to produce cost effective pro-level tires.

Handmade natural rubber - hardness grade Smart

Challenge's handcrafted natural rubber treads are compounded to provide the perfect amount of durability without sacrificing performance, comfort and control. Challenge tires wear out 10-20% faster than the competition, but score with significantly improved performance and noticeably better feel throughout their life. Depending on the requirements, the tyres are equipped with different soft rubber compounds.
The Smart hardness grade is the long-life optimised version of Challenge's natural rubber compounds.

Puncture Protection System (PPS)

The PPS (Puncture Protection System) puncture protection system consists of one or more layers of fabric between the tread and the tire carcass. PPS significantly increases the tyre's resistance to punctures and thus offers maximum reliability.
