There is now a suitable tread pattern for almost every application, but sometimes the ground conditions are not entirely clear and the tire needs to be adjusted accordingly. With the Tread Cutter, riders can adapt the tire profile even more optimally to the respective situation. For example, on the Dirty Dan mud tire from Schwalbe, the massive lugs can be shortened in the middle for easier rolling. Or, as with the Hans Dampf, the lugs in the shoulder area can be cut back so that there is more clearance and the tread becomes more aggressive. But even cleats that have been ridden round are given back a straight edge and the desired grip. The Tread Cutter is the first tread cutter developed specifically for MTB tires. It can be used to cut lugs precisely, with a smooth edge and at the desired height thanks to the cutting height adjustment, even by inexperienced hands.
