When the intention is not to see the asphalt for a long time, the choice of "Road Plus" becomes an option to consider without a doubt. Rapid Red 5 DB 650B allows you to use larger tires on the same frame, derived from mountain bike ones, with a greater air volume and blocks perfect for more technical dirt roads.
"Road Plus" is the definition of all this: the 27.5" diameter coupled with the even wider specific coverage, between 40 and 60 mm , can maintain the final 28" wheel diameter despite the thicker tyre.
Greater air volume, greater traction mean greater comfort and safety when tackling more difficult passages and being more daring.
These tires blend naturally with the features of the Rapid Red 5 DB 650B , starting with a tubeless ready 23 mm wide channel , with a low and ultra-resistant 24 mm rim, the same as its "bigger" sister, as well as the 24 spokes straight head supported by a solid aluminum hub, ready to face the most challenging adventures.
There will be no excessive distances, dirt and dust to stop Rapid Red 5 DB 650B , a wheel created for travel to give its best when the going gets tough.
Prepare the track and prepare your mind for your next objective, with you there will be a faithful, comfortable and reliable companion, light and precise.
This, ultimately, means freedom.
