Ritchey Drive WCS Rear Tubeless 27.5´´ X 2.25 MTB Tire

In 1984, Tom was the first to apply road tire technology to MTB tire design, introducing higher TPI and more pliable rubber compounds.. While he pioneered trail-specific tread patterns, vector force analysis technology was developed for MTB tires.. The result was the first ever directional tire.; Soon after, he applied this technology to the first treads specific to front and rear tires. 30 years later, Tom refined this technology and applied it to the Trail Bite and Drive tires.. Featuring a wider, more reinforced carcass for more aggressive terrain, the Bite and Drive are our newest all-mountain offering.
