New products : German tires manufacturer Schwalbe with Super Gravity creates new tire technology category

Schwalbe tire manufacturer offers at its freeride, enduro and downhill tires on future models with the new Super Gravity Karkassentechnik. Up to 700 grams less weight and improved puncture protection provide for jack, Rocket Ron, rock and Razor Magic Maryland for better performance on all surfaces.

During the development of Super-Gravity Technology Schwalbe has made bonds of motorcycle tires and transferred to the bicycle tire, so the carcass was revised and stabilizes the tire against punctures. In Schwalbes downhill tire carcass have a double structure was employed, were used in the total of four layers in a tire, the overlapped to the tread and there were a total of six layers.  

The new Super Gravity tire also has two carcass plies can be used, but now, in contrast to previously overlap at the side walls. In this patent pending turn-up process is thus results in four layers at the sides, but only two of the tread. This saves weight and also ensures optimum grip with a more flexible tread.  

To protect the casing against cuts, Swallow uses the robust and flexible snake-skin layer. In addition, the apex (a small wedge which amplifies also car and motorcycle tires) are stable in the bead area.  

The Apex is working in an optimized shape and with a harder rubber compound against the penetration forces acting there. 

The tire is designed among other things to the requirements of teams and drivers that work with Swallow in his "First Ride Development Program", including MS Mondraker, Scott11, Giant and Devinci. 

Swallow this summer four tires with the Super Gravity technology to, all offered in the tire sizes 26, 27.5 and 29 inches. The program has two swallow the all-round tire and jack Magic Mary and the Downhill tire Dirty Dan and fast rock Razor for dry substrates. All tires are tubeless ready.
