Challenge Almanzo Handmade CX Tyre

The Challenge Almanzo is perfect for adventure and gravel riders who want more control than the Strada Bianca, but with lower rolling resistance and weight than the Gravel Grinder.

• File tread pattern with exaggerated side tread for excellent speed and grip
• 260TPI SuperPoly & CorrazzaArmor casing gives an incredibly smooth and supple ride
• Handmade folding bead casing with PPS Ganzo and PPS2 puncture protection
• SmartPlus rubber compound for excellent grip and durability
• Not tubeless compatible

The Almanzo's file centre tread gives it incredibly low rolling resistance, so it speeds a long easier than the Gravel Grinder without giving too much away to the much slicker Strada Bianca. Compared to the Strada Bianca though, the Almanzo's exaggerated side tread gives bundles of confidence in loose corners, so you can attack them.

On rough gravel trails, you need confidence that your tyres are tough enough for the job and the Almanzo won't let you down thanks to it's double PPS Ganzo and PPS2 puncture protection, while the handmade SuperPoly casing gives it that elegantly supple ride that marks Challenge's handmade tyres out from the rest. If you want a highly versatile, lightweight and tough tyre for your gravel bike, the Challenge Almanzo is up to the task.
