Rene Herse Steilacoom TC Tire- Tubeless, Folding, 700 x 38mm

The René Herse Steilacoom 700 × 38 mm tire is a high‑performance gravel and cyclocross tire built for riders who want serious traction and confident handling in mixed and muddy conditions. With a thoughtfully designed knobby tread pattern and tubeless‑ready construction, Steilacoom blends rugged off‑road capability with smooth rolling characteristics for everything from gravel rides to cyclocross races.

Key Features

Knobby, Dual‑Purpose Tread

• Aggressive yet smartly spaced knobs deliver excellent grip in muddy or loose terrain without excessive drag on firm surfaces.
• Tread designed to evacuate muck quickly, keeping traction high even when things get sloppy.

Supple & Fast‑Rolling Construction

• Rene Herse’s renowned supple casings roll smoothly over rough terrain and dampen trail buzz for comfortable all‑day rides.
• Combines the feel of a high‑end tubular with the convenience of a folding clincher.

Tubeless‑Ready Clincher

• Folding bead with tubeless compatibility — run with sealant for lower pressures and fewer flats.
• Recommended for rims with 17–29 mm internal width (hookless rims +1 mm).
• Maximum pressure with tubes: ~75 psi / 5.2 bar; tubeless: ~60 psi / 4 bar.

Real‑World Dimensions

• Actual width on a ~20 mm internal rim: ~36 mm
• Actual width on a ~23 mm internal rim: ~38 mm
• Ideal for gravel, rough roads, cyclocross courses, and versatile all‑terrain exploration.

Casing Options

Choose the casing that fits your riding style and terrain:

• Standard: Supple, smooth‑rolling with tan sidewalls — balanced comfort and durability. (~423–435 g)
• Extralight: Ultra‑light and ultra‑supple for the fastest, most comfortable ride; available with tan or black sidewalls. (~378–395 g)
• Endurance: Same supple construction with a denser weave and protective belt — great for rough gravel and heavier loads. (~435–450 g)

Performance Highlights
