KENDA Booster GCT 120 TPI Tubeless 700C x 40 Gravel Tyre: Unleash Speed and Control
Elevate your gravel cycling experience with the KENDA Booster GCT 700C x 40 tyre, a masterclass in speed, traction, and durability. Engineered for the modern gravel rider who demands performance on every surface, from smooth tarmac to challenging singletrack, the Booster is your ticket to faster rides and greater confidence. Born from the legacy of its race-proven mountain bike counterpart, this tyre is meticulously designed to roll fast without sacrificing the crucial cornering grip you need when the terrain gets unpredictable. It´s the ultimate all-rounder for riders who refuse to be limited by the path ahead.
The heart of the Booster´s performance lies in its advanced tread design. It features a fast-rolling, low-profile center tread that minimizes rolling resistance on hardpack, gravel roads, and pavement, allowing you to maintain speed effortlessly. This design ensures that your power is translated directly into forward momentum, making it an ideal choice for racing or long-distance endurance rides. When you push the pace, the Booster responds with swift acceleration and efficiency, helping you conserve energy over long hauls.
While speed is paramount, control is non-negotiable. The Booster features more aggressive side knobs that bite tenaciously into loose or soft terrain, providing predictable and confidence-inspiring cornering traction. This dual-personality tread allows you to lean into turns with certainty, knowing the tyre will hold its line. This performance is further enhanced by Kend´s proprietary GCT (Gravel Casing Technology). Derived from their moto and automotive expertise, GCT provides a robust layer of protection from bead to bead. This shields the sidewalls against the cuts and abrasions common in rough gravel riding, while also optimizing the casing for a reliable and easy-to-set-up tubeless system that offers superior air retention.
Experience a superior ride feel thanks to the supple 120 TPI casing. This high thread-count construction allows the tyre to conform better to the ground´s imperfections, smoothing out chatter and enhancing overall traction. As a Tubeless Ready tyre, you can unlock its full potential by running lower tyre pressures. This not only dramatically improves comfort on rough surfaces but also significantly increases the contact patch for unparalleled grip and virtually eliminates the risk of pinch flats. The lightweight folding bead makes for easier installation and reduces rotational weight for a livelier, more responsive ride.
