Description

Conquer any terrain with confidence and control using the Ritchey WCS Alpine JB Tubeless Gravel Tyre. Designed for the adventurous gravel cyclist, this high-performance tyre delivers exceptional grip, durability, and a smooth, fast ride across diverse surfaces. Whether you´re tackling loose gravel, hardpack, or even light singletrack, the Alpine JB is engineered to provide the versatility and reliability you need to push your limits.
This 700c (28″) / 30-622 / 30mm tyre features Ritchey´s renowned WCS (World Championship Series) level construction, ensuring top-tier quality and performance. The 120 TPI (Threads Per Inch) casing strikes the perfect balance between supple ride quality and robust puncture protection. A higher TPI count allows for a more flexible casing, which conforms to the terrain for enhanced grip and reduced rolling resistance. This translates to a smoother, faster ride with improved cornering capabilities, especially on rough and uneven surfaces. The durable construction resists cuts and abrasions, ensuring long-lasting performance even in demanding conditions.
The tubeless-ready design of the Ritchey WCS Alpine JB allows for lower tire pressures, further enhancing grip and comfort while reducing the risk of pinch flats. Running tubeless also contributes to a lighter overall wheel weight, improving acceleration and responsiveness. The airtight bead securely locks onto the rim, providing a reliable seal for consistent performance. Setting up the tyre tubeless is straightforward, allowing you to quickly experience the benefits of this advanced technology.
The Alpine JB tread pattern is specifically optimized for mixed gravel conditions. The center tread features a fast-rolling, low-profile design for efficient performance on hardpack and paved sections. Transitioning to the shoulders, the tyre incorporates more aggressive, angled knobs that dig into loose gravel and dirt, providing exceptional cornering traction and braking control. This versatile tread pattern ensures a confident and predictable ride, no matter the terrain.
The folding bead design of the Ritchey WCS Alpine JB makes it easy to transport and store. This feature is particularly beneficial for cyclists who travel with their bikes or need to carry a spare tyre. The folding bead also contributes to a slightly lighter overall weight compared to traditional wire bead tyres.
