Zleen Panther Pro Tubeless Apex 27.5 x 2.45 black

The universal Enduro and less demanding trails tire. Finer than Hawk, Panther is best suited for harder and rockier surfaces while providing decent stability in muddy and soft terrains. The dense and deep center rib ensures great grip. The elaborate shoulder blocks work best at cornerring and fast acceleration.

Main Features:

• Tubeless

The tubeless tire casing features specially shaped beads, ensuring sealed rim seating. Unlike passenger or truck tires, bicycle tubeless tires don’t have the inner liner providing the ultimate airtightness. They become tubeless when a sensible volume of tire sealant is applied. For best results, use Zleen Seal Pro tubeless tire sealant. For tube-type rims, add rim tape, and don’t forget about premium quality tubeless valves.

• Apex

Apex is the near–rim tiny sidewall component standing behind the bead—sidewall reinforcement protecting the tire from snake bites, rim flange, and rock impact damage. This bead reinforcing wedge adds extra material, transferring the flexible area higher up the sidewall, guarding it against hits by rocks pounding hard full load when flying down the steep drops and on downhill trails.

• 120 TPI

The Pro high-tensile elastic tire casing for race riding experience. 120 treads per inch equals to nearly 5,000 threads per 1 meter of the tire body ply fabric, the key load carrying component of the tire casing. The finer the fabric the better steering response and grip due to its high flexibility quickly adjusting to the rugged surface at cornering and braking. The 120 tpi casing equally ensures the best grip at acceleration and low inclines. Be it in the rough terrains or in fast road speeds the 120 tpi casing is the best choice for the racing performance demands.

• Skinwall

Skinwall means sidewall-less tire casing. Built of 120 or 60 tpi fabric it adds maximum flexibility to the casing enabling best surface capture and making the tires the lightest and best-performing race and sport types of a kind.

• Reinforced aramid (foldable)

The extra strong flexible high-tensile advanced polyamide fiber (aramid) combined with the bead shape not only make the tires foldable but also very robust enabling the tubeless use at low inflation pressures.

• Dual Gravity Compound

Race performance 57 ShA centerline Pro dedicated compound complemented by 47 ShA super soft sticky DH shoulder compound providing extra confidence at loose and rocky trail sections

• B2B impact/ Bead Apex Protexion

Bead–to–bead impact damage protection providing extra shield across the whole tire envelope combined with the bead—sidewall Apex reinforcement
