Schwalbe Albert PRO Tire

Unlike traditional bias-ply tires, the radial construction allows the tire to deform more easily over obstacles. This creates a larger contact patch with the ground, which significantly improves grip and stability, especially when cornering or riding over technical terrain.

Yes, the Albert PRO is rated E-50, meaning it is certified for use on e-bikes capable of speeds up to 50 km/h. Its robust construction is designed to handle the extra torque and weight associated with electric mountain bikes.

The tread is optimized for dry, hard-packed trails. It features low-profile central knobs to keep rolling resistance low for speed, paired with aggressive shoulder blocks that provide the necessary bite when leaning into corners.

While it is designed as a tubeless-ready tire, it can technically be used with an inner tube. However, to get the full benefits of the radial casing and puncture protection, we highly recommend running it as a tubeless setup.

The Snake Skin fabric provides a reliable layer of defense against sidewall cuts and abrasions, which are common in rocky terrain. While it adds durability, it is still a performance-oriented tire, so it balances protection with weight savings.

The maximum pressure is 38 PSI (2.5 BAR). Because of the radial construction, you can often run slightly lower pressures than you might be used to, which helps maximize the contact patch and damping characteristics.
