Dryburgh Cycles

KENDA has developed some of the most advanced rubber compounds in the cycling world. Rubber compounds are designed with rolling resistance, grip, durability and puncture resistance in mind.The environment in which the tyre is to be used determines tread pattern. Whether your riding takes you down a nice smooth road, through dusty desert trails, or bombing down a muddy, root infested downhill course, the tread pattern is the key ingredient in how your bike handles.The casing is the fabric that the rubber compound adheres to. The fabric of the casing can be made in varying thicknesses and threads per inch (TPI). The casings can be treated and reinforced with various materials in order to achieve different ride qualities.The bead is the loop of material that ensures the tyre is held securely to the rim. KENDA Premium tyres are available in either wire, and or folding bead.

The entire MICHELIN City Trekking tire range benefits from revolutionary Protek technology. The special Protek Compound rubber mix helps ensure the tire’s integrity from the first mile to the last, thanks to antioxidant ingredients and a reinforced architecture. Protek Plus combines this special Protek Compound rubber mixture with a protective reinforcement band under the tread (Protek Shield). For the ultimate in puncture protection, Protek Max technology incorporates an incredible 5mm thick Protek Shield, as well as an anti-pinch-flat design and cut-resistant sidewalls (Protek Reinforced). The new MICHELIN Pilot Sport tire, designed for urban fitness riding, incorporates new Protek HD (High Density) technology, using a special antipuncture reinforcement Michelin engineers eveloped through road racing.
