Good Year shows profile on the mountain bike

Michelin, Continental, Maxxis: these renowned bicycle tire manufacturers have an automotive background. Now Good Year is also rolling in and producing tires for bicycles. In addition to rubber and gravel tires, tires for mountain bikers are also fresh in the range.

The history of Good Year and bicycle tires goes back a long way; the US company was already producing bicycle tires when it was founded in 1898. Good Year is the third largest tire manufacturer in the world.

In addition to tires for road bikes, everyday bikes and gravel bikes, Good Year is now also targeting mountain bikers. The "Peak" tire is available in a width of 2.25 in 27.5 and 29 inch sizes and is intended for cross-country use. Several rubber compounds are available for the "Escape" tire and the previous dimensions in widths of 2.35 and 2.6, the tire is recommended as an all-rounder for trail use in moderate terrain. For rougher terrain, Good Year offers the "Newton". This enduro tire is available in sizes 27.5 and 29 inches, in different rubber compounds and widths of 2.4 and 2.6 inches. In the same dimensions as the "Newton", there is also the "Newton ST", which should also cut a fine figure in gravity use thanks to its aggressive profile and lots of material on the carcass.
