Teravail Washburn

While the smooth center tread makes it efficient on pavement, it is primarily designed for mixed-terrain use. If your rides are exclusively on smooth asphalt, you might prefer a dedicated road tire, but it is an excellent choice if your route frequently transitions between pavement and gravel.

Yes, the Washburn is tubeless-ready, which means it is compatible with both tubeless setups and traditional inner tubes. If you choose to use tubes, ensure you carry a spare and a pump, though you will lose the puncture-resistance benefits of a tubeless sealant.

The 47mm width provides a large contact patch that excels at absorbing road buzz and smoothing out rough gravel. You will notice a more stable, plush ride, though it may feel slightly less snappy than a narrower tire when accelerating quickly on tarmac.

The shoulder lugs are designed to engage only when you lean the bike into a turn. This gives you extra bite and confidence on loose dirt or gravel corners without creating unnecessary drag when you are riding straight on hard surfaces.

No, 70 PSI is the maximum limit, not the recommended pressure for most riders. Running lower pressures—especially in a tubeless setup—will significantly improve comfort, traction, and puncture protection on rougher terrain.
