Hutchinson expands tubeless-ready tire range

Hutchinson promises less weight and more performance with its "Tubeless Ready" tires. The tubeless system with latex milk is now also available for the Toro marathon and enduro tires.

In various tests, the Toro has already proven itself in its first season: Thanks to its open profile and slightly arrow-shaped lugs, it has proven itself as an easy-running all-rounder for changeable terrain. For its second year on the market, Hutchinson is now launching several tubeless versions. In addition to the classic tubeless tire with Toro tread, Hutchinson is now also vulcanizing a "Tubeless Ready" version for bikers.

180 gram weight saving

"Tubeless Ready" can be used like a conventional tubeless tire without a tube. However, it is not the tire itself that ensures that no air escapes, but a latex milk that Hutchinson offers in the "Fast'Air" cartridge. The advantage of this solution is its low weight. Hutchinson promises a weight reduction of around 180 grams compared to a normal tubeless tire for the "Tubeless Ready" system with tire and sealant.

The Swiss Hutchinson importer Velok stocks the Toro "Tubeless Ready" in size 26x2.15. It is available from specialist dealers at a recommended retail price of 89 Swiss francs.
