Washburn Tire
Best durable tire for mixed terrain gravel and road cycling.
This is the ultimate set-it-and-forget-it rubber for riders who refuse to choose between pavement speed and gravel grip. The slick center strip flies on tarmac, while the aggressive side lugs bite when the road turns loose. You sacrifice a bit of pure mud-shedding capability for this versatility, but it’s a brilliant trade-off for mixed-surface riding.
