Maxxis DTR-1

While designed primarily for gravel and hardpack surfaces, the DTR-1 performs well on pavement. Its high-volume casing offers a smooth ride, though it is heavier and slower than a dedicated road tire.

Yes, this is a clincher tire with a wire bead, meaning it is designed to be used with an inner tube. It is not tubeless-ready.

The wire bead is stiffer and heavier than a folding Kevlar bead, which makes the tire more robust and secure on the rim. While this adds some weight, it ensures a very stable fit that is less likely to unseat on rough terrain.

The dual-compound rubber is engineered to balance longevity and grip. It works best on mixed surfaces like loose gravel, dirt paths, and hardpack, providing enough durability for long rides without sacrificing traction in corners.

The 47mm width is quite wide and will not fit on most standard road bike frames, which typically max out around 30-32mm. You should check your frame's tire clearance specifications before purchasing to ensure you have enough room for this high-volume tire.
