The Tacky Chan in the TRAIL version is slightly lighter than the Gravity variant; in return, you accept minor compromises in terms of puncture protection. TRAIL shines with an especially good price-performance ratio. You get the same soft compound as in the PRO versions and a robust construction that is particularly convincing with frequent visits to the trail or bike park. Features. Trail family. TLR.

Schwalbe Tacky Chan 29 x 2.4 Trail TLR Soft Mountain Bike Tyre Folding Description Tacky Chan is the fastest downhill tyre in the world: Maximum corner grip and maximum braking traction. The Schwalbe Tacky Chan Trail Soft TLR Tyre is a high-speed trail and downhill tyre built for strong corner grip, controlled braking, and low rolling resistance. Developed from a World Cup-winning design, it combines stable handling, reliable puncture protection, and a lighter construction for fast and aggressive riding on demanding trails. The ADDIX Soft compound delivers dependable traction across wet roots, loose dirt, and rocky terrain, while the Trail casing balances durability and weight for everyday trail and enduro use. Produced with fair trade rubber and tubeless ready for lower pressures and improved control, it gives consistent performance across varied conditions.Key Features and Benefits:Optimised tread design for 100% precision: The tread pattern is designed to keep the tyre stable under heavy cornering and braking loads. This improves steering accuracy and keeps the tyre predictable through rough and loose terrain. The result is more control when changing lines, entering corners, or carrying speed across technical trail sections.10% more stable shoulder lugs than Magic Mary: The reinforced shoulder blocks resist flex when the tyre is pushed hard into corners. This creates stronger side grip and keeps the tyre planted under aggressive lean angles. The added support improves confidence in fast turns and reduces the vague feel that softer side knobs can create.Long braking edges across the tread pattern: Extended braking surfaces increase the tyre's contact with the ground during hard deceleration. This improves grip when slowing down on steep descents or loose surfaces. The outcome is shorter stopping distances, better speed control, and later braking points before corners.ADDIX Soft compound construction: The ADDIX Soft rubber blend is tuned for trail, enduro, and downhill riding where grip matters most. It maintains traction across wet roots, rocks, and loose dirt without feeling slow on rolling terrain. This gives consistent handling in changing conditions and helps reduce wheel slip under power or braking.Trail casing with reliable puncture protection: The Trail construction strengthens the tyre against cuts, punctures, and sidewall damage while keeping weight under control. This balance improves durability without making the tyre feel heavy or sluggish on climbs. The result is dependable performance for regular aggressive riding and fewer interruptions from trail damage.Tubeless Ready folding bead design: The TLR construction allows lower tyre pressures without the higher puncture risk linked to inner tubes. Lower pressures improve grip, comfort, and ground contact across uneven terrain. Combined with the folding bead, this also reduces overall tyre weight and improves ride feel on long trail rides.Fast rolling speed and dependable grip are key for riders who want one tyre that performs across mixed trail conditions. The Tacky Chan Trail Soft TLR Tyre delivers that balance with a lighter build than the Magic Mary, stable cornering support, and strong braking traction. Its tubeless-ready design improves traction and comfort at lower pressures, while the ADDIX Soft compound keeps grip consistent on technical terrain. The Trail casing also adds the puncture protection needed for regular hard riding without adding unnecessary weight.For riders who want downhill-inspired grip with the efficiency needed for trail riding, the Schwalbe Tacky Chan Trail Soft TLR Tyre delivers a balanced and proven setup. Its World Cup-developed tread design, reliable casing, and fast rolling feel make it a strong choice for demanding rides in all conditions.
