The Schwalbe Albert stands for maximum safety and control in every situation. It impresses with its outstanding all-round properties, which make it the ideal choice on almost all routes and in all conditions. The precisely developed intermediate tread pattern in combination with high-quality rubber compounds pushes the boundaries of what is possible. The shoulder lugs adopted from Tacky Chan offer extended braking edges and optimum transfer of lateral forces. Thanks to the new radial carcass, the tyre absorbs unevenness better and adapts precisely to the ground. In contrast to conventional bicycle tyres, where the carcass threads run at a 45° angle, they are arranged at a flatter angle on the Albert Trail Pro. This technology, developed in the Downhill World Cup, is revolutionising mountain biking. Thanks to the special arrangement, the carcass materials overlap for a shorter time and with less tension, allowing the tyre to adapt more flexibly and precisely to bumps without compromising safety. Radial tyres offer a 30 per cent larger contact area compared to conventional tyres at the same air pressure. The result: more grip, better damping and greater comfort.
