MASSI Burst Tubeless 700×40 Gravel Tyre
Unleash your gravel adventure with the MASSI Burst Tubeless 700×40 tyre, meticulously engineered for the modern all-terrain cyclist. This tyre is the ultimate upgrade for your gravel or all-road bike, designed to conquer a wide spectrum of surfaces with confidence and speed. The new Burst tubeless ready gravel tire in 700×40 balances traction, durability, and comfort. Its design allows for reliable and comfortable rolling on mixed terrains, ideal for cyclists seeking performance and safety on gravel routes and uneven roads.
Exceptional Versatility and Performance
The core of the MASSI Burst´s performance lies in its intelligent and versatile tread pattern. The central tread features a tightly packed, low-profile design that significantly reduces rolling resistance on pavement and hard-packed dirt, allowing you to maintain speed and conserve energy on faster sections. As you lean into corners or encounter looser terrain, the more aggressive and widely spaced shoulder knobs dig in, providing exceptional grip and cornering stability. This dual-purpose design ensures that you have the perfect blend of straight-line speed and predictable handling, whether you´re on a smooth fire road, a chunky gravel path, or transitioning between tarmac and trail.
The Tubeless Advantage for Comfort and Reliability
Experience a revolutionary improvement in ride quality with the Burst´s Tubeless Ready technology. By running a tubeless setup, you can safely use lower tyre pressures, which dramatically enhances comfort by allowing the tyre to absorb vibrations and impacts from rough surfaces. This creates a smoother, less fatiguing ride over long distances. Furthermore, the tubeless system offers superior grip as the tyre conforms more effectively to the terrain. Most importantly, it provides a high degree of puncture resistance; when paired with sealant, small punctures are sealed almost instantly, keeping you rolling and drastically reducing the chances of a ride-ending flat tyre.
Built for Durability
Gravel cycling demands a tyre that can withstand abrasive and unpredictable conditions. The MASSI Burst is constructed with a robust 120 TPI (Threads Per Inch) casing, offering a supple and responsive feel without sacrificing strength. It features an integrated 1.5mm LDP puncture protection layer beneath the tread, providing a formidable shield against thorns, glass, and sharp rocks. The folding bead not only reduces the overall weight of the tyre but also makes installation and removal easier. This combination of features results in a durable and reliable tyre that you can trust for everything from local loops to multi-day bikepacking epics.
