Bon Jon Pass - 700C x 35The Bon Jon Pass from René Herse Cycles, formerly known as Compass Cycles, sounds like a nice versatile tire. With its 700C x 35 mm size, it is perfect for bikes with a little extra room, right in between the Stampede Pass and Barlow Pass. This tire seems to be made for a specific cycling experience, especially on fairly smooth gravel roads with moderate inclines, such as those found on the Olympic Peninsula. A notable feature seems to be its performance on asphalt. The wider width and lower pressure translate to better cornering and smoother handling, especially on surfaces such as so-called "chip seal. The tire's compatibility with tubeless setups adds to its appeal, giving cyclists options to reduce punctures and generally improve performance. It is interesting to note that the brand has rebranded itself from Compass Cycles to René Herse Cycles, although it appears there is still some overlap in terminology on the website and product branding. This consolidation may streamline the brand identity in the future. All in all, the Bon Jon Pass sounds like a solid choice for cyclists looking for a tire that balances performance on a variety of surfaces and terrain types.More info & order
Gravelking Slick 48-584For those who want to push the limits on their two-wheelers and venture onto trails that are a little too wild for a standard road tire, the GravelKings were created. The GravelKing SK is exactly what you expect from a tire suitable for gravel. There is no defined terrain for which it is intended. It is designed to excel on any kind of surface and to impress even when the demands are as diverse as the gravel scene itself. The compactly placed studs on the tread provide excellent grip with minimal rolling resistance. The long studs on the shoulders provide much-needed grip when cornering quickly on gravel paths and asphalt. A balanced rubber compound for durability and grip, an anti-puncture casing for puncture protection and a special casing construction make the GravelKing series tires perfect for any adventure. And let's take a look at the technologies these tires incorporate: TLC (Tubeless Compatible): Allows you to use the tires even without inner tubes, just with sealant. Anti-Flat (Anti-Flat Casing): This reinforces the entire tire to increase resistance to punctures. ZSG Natural (Zero Slip Grip Natural Compound): This rubber compound offers extremely low rolling resistance and long life. AX-Alpha (Advanced Extra Alpha Cord): Thin wires are tightly woven into the carcass, making the tire resistant to cuts without the weight and flex Translated with DeepL.com (free version)More info & order

650B x 48 Switchback Hill TC TireInspired by the legendary Oregon Outback and named after the first climb of that epic 360-mile gravel ride/race, the Switchback Hill remains the lightest, fastest and most comfortable ultra-wide 650B tire. On the Oregon Outback route, the gravel is quite loose in places, and the extra flotation of the Switchback Hills gives you more speed and security when the going gets really rough. 30% of the Oregon Outback is on pavement, so we designed this tire to roll as fast and grip as well as a good racing tire. The tread has enough thickness in the center to last many miles, but it’s thin and supple on the shoulders where it doesn’t wear. With this tire, you truly have the best of both worlds. The Standard casing is our more affordable option: comfortable and fast, yet also strong to withstand considerable abuse. The Extralight casing takes the performance, comfort and feel of your bike to an entirely new level. The Endurance casing is reinforced for extra sidewall protection and puncture resistance, while retaining the speed and comfort for which Rene Herse tires are famous. The Switchback Hill is tubeless-compatible. For tubeless setup, we recommend SealSmart sealant. When used with tubes, we recommend the SV13 or SV14A tubes. Made in Japan.
