A. Dugast Small Bird Tubular Cyclocross Tire

Description

Fly Away From The Competition

The A. Dugast Small Bird Tubular Cyclocross Tire is a great option on courses with mixed conditions where it might get a bit slippery.

Starting with the rubber, a double compound gives the tire most of its excellent grip. On the tread the outer studs are twice as high as the studs in the middle. This combo of extremely soft lug rubber and aggressive lug placement result in extreme grip in the turns. And because of the lower studs in the middle, the rolling resistance is still limited for all out speed when you need it. This tire is ultimately almost like a mix between A. Dugast's Rhino and Typhoon.

This agile tire is available with two casings to suit your needs. A 100% cotton casing with 536 TPI offers increased puncture resistance, more elasticity, lower rolling resistance and better handling in corners. Flying Doctor casing is made of 87.5% cotton and 12.5% kevlar with 402 TPI. It's lighter than regular cotton casing with more resistant sidewalls against sharp edges. This casing remains steady in the most extreme corners even at low pressures.

A Neoprene Coating made from a 0.1 mm-thick layer of silicon applied with a brush to the tire casing fills the empty spaces in the yarn. This coating prevents water and debris from penetrating the casing and extends their lifetime.
