Bruce Gordon Cycles Rock n Road Tires 700c x 43mm

The tires measures out at a nice 43mm wide It's lighter than the original. The 43mm x 700c weighed right about 540g. Japanese-built by Panaracer, the tire has a nice Kevlar folding bead. Your bike has to have at least 43cm chain stays for the 700c tire to fit

Don't know about the original tire? Then here is a quick trip down memory lane:

The original tire was designed by this mountain bike guy named Joe Murray (you might have heard of him). It was designed to be a large volume, fast rolling tire that could handle all conditions - jack of all trades. That's not the most interesting part. What made this tire unique is that it was built for 700c wheels. That's right, this was a 29er tire before 29ers became all the rage. How early? Try 1988...
