Hutchinson Wyrm MTB XC Trail Downcountry Tyre e-Bike Compatible Black 29 x 2.40 Tubeless Ready
Hutchinson Wyrm MTB XC Trail Downcountry Tyre Black 29 x 2.40 Tubeless Ready. The ultimate solution to conquer any terrain. Mud shredding aggressive 29” tyre crafted to bridge the gap between XC and Enduro. The perfect tyre for short travel trail bikes
As the second addition to the Hutchinson Downcountry/Trail range, the Wyrm embodies power and agility. Its robust 66 TPI carcass matched with Hutchinson's signature XC Race Riposte tri-compound and Hardskin bead to bead reinforcement construction protects against any challenge.
Like its namesake, Hutchinson's latest addition to its Mountain Bike range is a force to be reckoned with. Ready to transform a bike's character with a simple tyre change. The Wyrm sits in between the aggressive Griffus and the fast yet capable Kraken 2.4, completing the Hutchinson ecosystem of downcountry, trail and enduro tyres.
Employ the Wyrm as a standalone tyre for a capable, all-weather, downcountry set up or run it upfront with the recently relaunched Kraken 2.4 at the rear for a fast rolling, grippy summer trail pairing. Alternatively, as a rear tyre matched with the ever popular Griffus, it can offer increased speed in conditions where a full enduro setup may be overkill.
The Wyrm's large 2.4” volume enables the tyre to be run at lower pressures, while its lower height and low-profile design ensure excellent efficiency, even on dry terrain requiring quick acceleration. A relatively round profile offers a forgiving platform for excellent support on rugged terrain, corners and off-camber sections.
- The new Hutchinson beast dedicated to DownCountry.
- Large chevrons on the central BDR to maximize performance and braking.
- High lateral knobs to ensure grip in rough turns.
- A 60 mm section on a 30 mm internal rim.
- A controlled weight of 950g and a TAN version in TLR made in France.
Highlights from Bike Perfect Review
" The whole XC-trail/downcountry tire category is by definition all about compromise because speed, toughness, float, and control are at different corners of the performance compass. The Wyrm is definitely one of the better options in the category though, with impressive toughness and rough terrain carcass control as its strongest characteristic. The tread is really well judged for its purpose, with a predictable ‘better than XC/faster roll than trail’ performance whether you’re braking, driving, or turning.
As a rapid, rough terrain trail tire, it's great in its own right or as a partner to the new larger-sized Kraken tire on the rear or the excellent Griffus enduro tire on the front. Given the likely durability, pricing is acceptable if not a giveaway too."
