Hutchinson Challenger Tubeless Ready Hardshield tire 700

The new endurance tire from Hutchinson. Complete peace of mind, all year round. A tire with no compromises, delivering exceptional performance in terms of longevity, comfort and safety. Created after extensive research and development from Hutchinson, the Challenger has been designed as a ‘do-it-all’ tire capable of the demands of everyday training, Gran Fondo riding and ultra-endurance adventures

The Challenger TLR introduces an entirely new level of puncture protection with HARDSHIELD™ technology. This innovation consists of two protective layers working in harmony. A wide polyamide reinforcement spans the width of the tyre’s tread, while a narrower strip of super-strong Aramid threads concentrates protection at the ground contact patch.

In rigorous tests comparing the Challenger TLR to competitors, it withstood punctures at force ratings up to 170 Newtons, a remarkable 100% increase in resistance in some cases. These results demonstrate the extraordinary level of puncture resistance offered by HARDSHIELD™.
