Goodyear Escape
Best versatile tire for mountain bikers seeking reliable all terrain grip.
This is the ultimate 'set it and forget it' tire for riders who tackle mixed terrain without wanting to swap rubber. By balancing fast-rolling center knobs with aggressive side lugs, it sacrifices a bit of pure speed for the confidence to handle everything from hardpack to loose, muddy corners.
