XCO-proven tech for fast, dry gravel
XCO-proven and adapted for gravel and ‘cross, the Mezcal brings grip and speed on hard surfaces to drop bar cycling. The center tread lights up on fast, straight sections, and the shoulders cling when you’re leaning through corners. On more technical sections, siping throughout lets the tread deform against bigger chunks of gravel, roots, and pavement. Instead of slipping off or spinning out, the Mezcal’s contact points are multiplied, and it latches on to propel you forward.
100 TPI Nylon Casing
The highest thread count in our gravel line, which means it’s our most supple, lightest gravel casing. Nylon’s durable threads withstand the punishment of mixed-terrain cycling, and the relatively high thread count sheds rolling resistance and maintains the feel of the gravel while muting chatter.Â
Graphene 1CÂ Compound
Rubber, infused with Graphene to minimize rolling resistance and resist punctures. Graphene effectively fills the gaps between rubber molecules, creating a reinforced structure that’s lighter, more efficient, and also more durable.Â
XC-Trail TLRÂ Reinforced 120-Â TPI Casing
A reinforced racing casing, the XC-Race TLR combines a durable, supple 120-TPI nylon construction with additional protection on the sidewalls. Responsiveness, muted chatter, and supple trail feel with a little extra anti-puncture insurance – when XC gets gnarly, the XC-Trail TLR goes off.Â
