hex gravel tires
designed for race, performance, and adventure
The HEX and HEX Carapace gravel tires delivers uniform traction in a fast-rolling package. A unique hexagonal tread block design allows the ability to flex and conform to the terrain ensuring confident handling in mixed, dry, and hard-pack conditions. Both the black and tan sidewalls are available in 40mm, 44mm, and 48mm widths.

The hexagonal tread pattern's detached progressive spacing further improves rolling performance while adeptly clearing debris and enhancing cornering bite.
Independent tracking
De-coupled tread blocks enable the casing to flex and conform to the terrain, maximizing traction and rolling performance. A hexagonal block shape allows a three-way flex pattern to add suppleness to the casing so the tire conforms to varied surface conditions for consistent handling.
TRACTION WHERE YOU NEED IT
Balancing efficient rolling and traction is where the HEX stands out. A cat-tongue tread feature provides both driving and braking traction for confident handling. All sizes use a scaled tread to ensure the maximum level of traction possible by tire size.
SPEED AND EFFICIENCY
A nano-particle-enhanced rubber compound reduces rolling resistance, improves traction, and extends tread wear. Combined with a supple casing, the HEX delivers a supple ride quality and rolling efficiency.
FLAT PROTECTION
The standard Hex gravel tire contains a sub-tread barrier for anti-flat protection and the HEX Carapace steps up the flat protection with a full Kevlar pucture barrier. Both do so without diminishing the HEX’s rolling efficiency and ride quality. Additionally, the chaffer strip at the tire’s bead is extended to offer a greater level of pinch-flat protection.
