Pasela-PT Tire

Yes, it is designed specifically for urban commuting and touring. The ProTite puncture protection belt under the tread provides the extra durability needed to handle debris and rough pavement common in city riding.

Yes, this is a tube-type tire. It is designed to be used with a standard inner tube and is not compatible with tubeless setups.

The wire bead makes the tire more rigid and slightly heavier than folding-bead alternatives, but it provides a very secure fit on the rim. While it is less compact for storage, it is a standard, reliable choice for daily commuters who prioritize durability over weight savings.

The 700x38 size is a common standard for hybrid, touring, and gravel bikes. Before purchasing, verify that your frame and fork have enough clearance for a 38mm width tire and that your rims are compatible with this diameter.

The 'PT' stands for ProTite, which is Panaracer's specialized puncture-protection belting. While the standard Pasela is a classic touring tire, the PT version adds a reinforced layer directly under the tread to significantly reduce the risk of flats from road debris.
