Magic Mary 29" x 2.5" Radial Tire
The Magic Mary is indisputably the favorite among Schwalbe Downhill and Enduro athletes. With perfect all-round characteristics for almost all tracks and conditions, the sophisticated intermediate profile is combined with the best compounds and construction, pushing the limits to surprising levels. Now available with Schwalbe's new radial tire technology for even more traction and control.
RADIAL TIRE TECHNOLOGY
The basis for radial tires is the completely rethought construction of the carcass. The carcass threads, which run diagonally across the tire at a 45° angle in conventional bicycle tires, are arranged at a much more obtuse angle in Schwalbe's radial tires. This technology opens up a completely new dimension in the function of bicycle tires.
ADVANTAGES OF RADIAL
- Carcass threads at a more obtuse angle than other tires
- 30% more contact area with the same air pressure
- More grip, more damping, more control
MORE CONTACT PATCH, MORE GRIP
Due to the blunter angle of the carcass threads, the tire can deform more selectively. As a result, it follows bumps many times better than a bias-ply tire and always maintains contact with the ground. The result: more grip, more comfort and more control off-road. In addition, the contact area increases by approx. 30% with the same air pressure.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIAS-PLY AND RADIAL TIRES
In a bias-ply tire, the threads of the carcass lie at a 45° angle to the direction of travel. This is the standard construction method for bicycle tires. In radial tires, on the other hand, the threads lie at a 90° angle, but require a so-called belt under the tread. Schwalbe radial tires have a much more obtuse angle than conventional cross-ply tires, but do not require a belt.
