Description
xThe Schwalbe Ice Spiker Pro Raceguard Folding tyre is engineered for ultimate grip on icy surfaces, featuring 361 tungsten carbide spikes that ensure confident traction where it matters most. Each spike’s core is clad in lightweight aluminum, combining durability with agility, resulting in a tyre that is both robust and remarkably light at just 850g. This balance allows for accelerated performance without compromising safety on slippery terrain.
Designed for winter conditions, these tyres excel in delivering reliable control and stability, even during fast cornering on asphalt. To maximize spike retention and performance, it’s recommended to break them in over approximately 40km on asphalt, avoiding sudden acceleration or hard braking. Though optimized for icy roads, these tyres can also be ridden on normal roads, but drivers should be aware of the increased tyre noise when snow coverage is minimal.
Schwalbe’s commitment to quality ensures that the tungsten carbide spikes maintain their effectiveness over thousands of kilometers, gradually wearing down but still providing excellent grip. However, even the best spike tyres have their limits—deep snow can challenge their traction capabilities. The Ice Spiker Pro Raceguard Folding tyre is an excellent choice for cyclists seeking superior winter performance without sacrificing speed or agility.
What It’s Good For
- Providing exceptional grip on icy and slippery roads
- Maintaining sporty and agile handling at only 850g
- Delivering durability with tungsten carbide spikes clad in aluminum
- Ensuring long-lasting spike performance over thousands of kilometers
- Allowing safe cornering even on normal asphalt surfaces
What It’s NOT Good For
- Riding in deep snow where spikes cannot provide enough traction
- Frequent fast acceleration or heavy braking before proper break-in period
- Use on roads where spike noise may be disruptive if snow is absent
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it also be ridden on a normal road?
Yes, the tyre performs well on normal asphalt, but if snow coverage is rare, the tyre noise might be noticeable.
And it won't slide out in cornering?
No, the spikes bite firmly into the surface, allowing for confident and stable cornering at speed.
Aren't spikes illegal?
Bike tyre spikes are generally allowed. Restrictions typically apply only to motor vehicle spikes, as they can damage roads. Fast E-bikes may be considered motor vehicles in some regions.
What is the lifespan of the spikes?
The tungsten carbide spikes are extremely durable, lasting for several thousand kilometers, though the edges will gradually round off and embed deeper over time.
What are the tyres' limitations?
Spike tyres lose effectiveness in deep snow, where traction becomes more challenging.
