Founded in Marin County California, WTB strive to produce durable specialist components such as tyres, saddles, rims and grips - all major contact points for the bicycle - to make every mile as enjoyable as possible. Now catering for XC, Enduro, Downhill and Road disciplines and with their components featured on many complete bikes, they've done pretty well.
The Bailiff maintains order through the most adverse winter conditions. The 4.5" width provides the surface area needed to stay on top of the fluffy stuff while tall, widely-spaced knobs improve braking and cornering traction on packed snow. Available with or without carbide studs pre-installed, all versions feature 312 stud pockets for unbeatable traction on ice. The Bailiff's tubeless-ready 120tpi casing provides a supple ride feel, conforms to all surface conditions, and minimizes rotational weight. Its snow-specific compound remains soft at extremely cold temperatures to provide unparalleled traction on the most frigid days of the year. Refuse to call winter the "off" season? Pedal on with the Bailiff.
Technology
TCS
TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is our industry-leading tubeless rim/tire system designed to international ETRTO and ISO standards.
Light Casing
One layer of supple, gram-conscious casing conforms to the terrain to provide maximum performance, exceptional reliability, and low rotational weight.
High Grip Compound
Soft yet supportive knobs conform to the trail and rebound slowly to provide maximum traction on loose, rocky terrain regardless of wet or dry conditions.
Features
No-Compromise Thread
Tight groupings of center knobs cut down on rolling resistance without hesitating to dig in while braking. Tall outer knobs quickly provide traction in the earliest phases of cornering. Strategic placement of tread encourages effective shedding of snow keeping the knobs clear to deliver traction. Did you know you can also run this puppy in reverse for those seeking max traction when climbing something gnarly... not Everest, but you get the point.
Strategically Directional Siping
Center and intermediate knobs are siped in a direction that improves accelerating and braking traction by increasing the amount of working edges that bite into the snow when you crank on the pedals or slam on the brakes. Outer knobs feature sipes that run parallel to the tire in order to improve cornering traction.
Snow Focused Testing and Design
When several of our amazing bike partners in Canada approached up to make a snow tire, we were skeptical at first, I mean, we are based in California. So we looked to our experts, the snow experts in Vermont where they are covered in snow, four months out of the year. This tire went through so many revisions to get it just right, kinda like goldilocks and the three bears. It took time, but we got it right and can't wait for you to shred on it.
TCS Tubeless-Ready
TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless system. Versions with a TCS tubeless-ready casing benefit from reduced flats and allows lower tire pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tire.
