Teravail Cannonball Tire

While the Cannonball is designed with gravel racing in mind, its tread pattern is versatile enough for mixed-terrain use. The tight-knit center tread rolls fast on hardpack, while the side knobs provide the necessary grip for loose gravel and cornering on unpredictable surfaces.

These tires are tubeless-ready, meaning they are optimized for a tubeless setup to allow for lower pressures and better puncture resistance. However, they can be used with inner tubes if you prefer, though you will lose the specific comfort and traction benefits of running them tubeless.

The Light & Supple casing is designed to conform to the ground, which results in a smoother, more responsive ride quality. Because it prioritizes weight savings and flexibility over heavy-duty puncture protection, it is best suited for riders who value performance and feel over maximum durability.

These tires are optimized for a 23mm internal rim width. Using a rim within this range will help the tire maintain its intended shape and ensure the side knobs are positioned correctly for optimal cornering traction.

The 60 TPI casing offers a balance between durability and ride quality. While it is robust enough for typical gravel riding, it is not a reinforced, heavy-duty tire; if you frequently ride on extremely sharp, jagged rock, you might consider a tire with more aggressive sidewall protection.
