WTB Byway RS 50 Tire - 700 x 50c, TCS Tubeless, Black

The WTB Byway RS 50 is the pure-speed option in WTB's new wide-gravel family. A slick centerline keeps it quick on pavement and hardpack, while low-profile transition and shoulder knobs add predictable grip when the surface loosens or the bike is leaned over. The 50 mm casing adds support and comfort without giving up the efficient feel riders want from a gravel race tire.

WTB builds the Byway RS around a supple 120 TPI TCS Light casing, Dual DNA rubber, and SG2 bead-to-bead puncture protection. Patent-pending trip strips and vortex generators developed with Stromm manage airflow around the wheel-and-tire system to help reduce drag at higher speeds. The profile is optimized around a 28 mm internal rim, with a recommended range of 25-30 mm.
