Schwalbe ICE SPIKER PRO – studded MTB tyre for icy conditions

The Schwalbe ICE SPIKER PRO is a studded MTB tyre with 378 studs that bite into icy surfaces when conditions get slippery. Its Winter Compound is designed for studded tyres and works with RaceGuard puncture protection and a flexible 67 EPI casing. Lite Skin sidewalls help keep weight and rolling resistance down, while the tread provides grip on both ice and loose terrain.

• Grip on ice: 378 studs help you maintain a stable grip on icy surfaces.
• Winter Compound: The rubber compound is designed for studded tyres and cold winter conditions.
• Puncture protection: RaceGuard with a double nylon layer helps protect against punctures while retaining flexibility.
• Low weight and rolling resistance: Lite Skin sidewalls are thin and lightweight, helping to reduce weight and rolling resistance.
• Flexible casing: The 67 EPI casing provides a flexible construction that follows the terrain.
• Tubeless Ready: The tyre is prepared for tubeless setup.
• 27.5" MTB: Designed for 27.5-inch MTB wheels and suitable for ice, gravel and loose terrain.
