Cross and Gravel Tyres Challenge Baby Limus Pro

Top-quality all-round cyclocross and gravel tyres for wet or dry conditions, sticky mud or dry tracks: the Baby Limus Pro.

A modified version of the popular Challenge Limus. It is based on the Limus’s Y-profile with its first-class self-cleaning properties. In the centre section, however, the knobs are denser and lower, ensuring an optimal combination of cornering stability and smooth rolling. The folding tyre features a 300 TPI polyester casing and includes a Puncture Protection Strip (PPS), an additional layer of high-strength material between the casing and the tyre to reduce the risk of punctures.

Pro Handmade Clincher with Superpoly casing

• Handmade tyres combine a variety of outstanding features to offer maximum comfort and minimal rolling resistance. Carefully selected materials are used in the various tyre grades depending on performance requirements for specific applications. Soft, supple casings quickly adapt to the shape of the ground surface when rolling and cornering. This increases ground contact and grip and improves shock absorption on poor road surfaces. Soft, natural rubber treads are combined with lightweight, flexible puncture protection.
• Polyester is the most cost-effective of all hand-built casings. It is a synthetic fabric that is very strong and waterproof, offering significantly greater flexibility and durability than comparable nylon materials. Challenge uses high-quality polyester or SuperPoly, a polyester with a higher TPI rating, to produce cost-effective pro-level tyres.

Handcrafted Natural Rubber – Smart Hardness

• Challenge’s hand-built natural rubber treads are formulated to offer the perfect balance of durability without compromising performance, comfort and control. Although Challenge tyres wear out 10–20 per cent faster than the competition’s, they score highly with significantly improved performance and a noticeably better riding experience throughout their entire lifespan. Depending on requirements, the tyres are fitted with rubber compounds of varying softness.

• The Smart hardness grade is the version of Challenge’s natural rubber compounds optimised for long life.

Puncture Protection System, PPS

• The PPS (Puncture Protection System) consists of one or more layers of fabric between the tread and the tyre carcass. PPS significantly increases the tyre’s resistance to punctures, thereby offering maximum reliability.
