The tyre itself for the steepest uphill passages
- Radial carcass allows for a larger contact patch and significantly filters road irregularities: more grip, more comfort, and more safety
- Virtually sticks to the ground as the tyre deforms more precisely at specific points
- Profile optimised for radial carcass: Open tread design with high tread depth for excellent traction especially on soft surfaces
RADIAL REVOLUTION: REDEFINING MOUNTAIN BIKE TIRES
The structure of radial tires
With our radial tires, we are turning the MTB world on its head. We have always asked ourselves the following question during development: How can we make the best possible use of the limited contact area of a tire?
The basis for this 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 our radial tires. This technology opens up a completely new dimension in the function of bicycle tires.

Radial tires from Pinkbike awarded
Great honor for our new MTB tires with radial carcass: Pinkbike is so enthusiastic about the innovative Schwalbe technology that they have awarded them the coveted “Product of the year” 2024 award.
It says: “they [Schwalbe] didn’t just think outside the box, they reshaped it.” And with great effect, because the Pinkbike team is very enthusiastic after several practical tests and writes: “This new type of construction used on their Trail Pro and Gravity Pro tires improves performance in several ways.” The enormous additional grip and the smooth ride feel are particularly emphasized in Pinkbike’s write-up. Schwalbe's new Albert model thus ensures safety and confidence on any terrain.
