Zipp Goodyear/Zipp XPLR SLICK Tubeless Tire Gray, 700x45c

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I love how fast this tire feels on smooth gravel and dry hardpack. The center slick really makes the bike hum, and the slight side texture gives enough bite when the corners get loose. I will say setup was a bit stubborn, so I recommend warming the tire or using a lever to help with bead seating.""Fast gravel days call for a tire that doesn't hesitate—and the Goodyear/Zipp XPLR SLICK Tubeless Tire is all about confident speed. Engineered to complement Zipp’s 303 XPLR SW and S wheelsets, this tire elevates aerodynamic performance while delivering a smooth, efficient ride over dry, fast terrain. The Dynamic:UHP compound minimizes rolling resistance while the slick center tread flies over firm surfaces. Subtle shoulder textures add just enough grip when you dive into curves or power through gravel drift. The lightweight, supple construction eats up small vibrations for all-day comfort, while M:Wall sidewall protection helps fend off flats from debris or low-pressure riding. Whether you're chasing race goals or fast-paced adventure, this tire keeps the tempo high and the ride buttery smooth."
