The Goodyear XPLR Slick Tire Designed for Zipp 303 XPLR, brought to you by Escapa, is a semi-slick Gravel racing tire designed for Zipp 303 XPLR SW and S wheels, offering the fastest wheel-and-tire combination for Gravel riding on smooth or moderately rough trails. It performs best in dry conditions.
Today’s Gravel wheel sets are slightly more durable versions of their road counterparts: lightweight, stiff, narrow, and aerodynamic. The problem is that riding on gravel causes harmful vibrations that slow you down and increase fatigue over time. Furthermore, gravel tires often negate the aerodynamic advantages of traditionally narrow road rims. The Slick is designed to measure 40mm on the Zipp 303 XPLR wheel.
The new XPLR wheel and tire system takes a completely new approach and optimizes component dimensions to achieve the fastest setup on the market. In addition to unbeatable aerodynamic advantages for Gravel riding, the rim width also allows for lower tire pressure, which eliminates vibrations and saves more energy.
The Goodyear XPLR Slick Designed For Zipp tire offers the most aerodynamic Gravel setup with 303 XPLR SW and S wheels and is best suited for racing on smooth, dry Gravel. Its slick center allows for high-speed riding, while the texture and tread blocks in the corners ensure a certain level of confidence. Its lightweight and flexible structure enhances ride quality. The M:Wall reinforcements on the sidewalls provide puncture protection, allowing the rider to ride at the lowest possible air pressure. Finally, the tire dimensions are designed to ensure a comfortable fit and secure retention on Zipp TSS rims. Only tires approved for use with XPLR wheels may be used.
