Challenge Paris-Roubaix Race Folding Tyre 700x27c Black

The foldable Challenge Paris-Roubaix tyre has been designed to perform perfectly on broken asphalt and even pavement. Thanks to its 27c section, it provides more comfort and a more comfortable running surface. A puncture-protective layer adds to this cover the reliability and durability needed to perform at the highest level with PPS (Puncture Protection System) technology.

The construction of this tyre follows exactly the same process as for tubular tyres, but instead of sewing the carcass together to close the tyre, the open sides around the aramid fibre ropes were bent to produce beads. This "open" design performs like a tubular and is mounted like a conventional clincher.

Since 1985, Challenge has been producing bike tyres in various versions, colours, sizes and models. The name Challenge already suggests what these tyres are made for: to help you in all challenges.

The Italian company places great emphasis on the fact that many of its tyre models were developed together with professional riders. Many of the open tubular tyres are manufactured using the same processes and materials as the tubular tyres. Combined with a latex inner tube, Open Tubular tyres offer a driving quality very similar to that of a tubular tyre: excellent grip, ideal for cornering, rolling resistance and comfort.
