Specialized Borough Sport
Best versatile tire for urban commuters seeking puncture protection.
This is the ultimate commuter tire for riders who refuse to choose between pavement speed and dirt-path capability. By blending a slick, efficient center strip with aggressive shoulder knobs, it handles urban potholes and gravel shortcuts with equal poise. You sacrifice a bit of pure racing weight for the peace of mind that comes with reliable flat protection.
