Schwalbe Albert Gravity Pro Radial Ultra Soft Compound Tubeless Tyre

Join the radial revolution!

Schwalbe set out to define a new era of MTB tyre technology with one question in mind: Is it possible to develop flexible tyres with maximum utilization of the contact area that offers even more grip, safety and comfort?

The answer? Yes. Yes it is. 

Dependable Deformation

The completely overhauled construction of the tyre carcass rearranges the carcass threads from a 45° angle to be more perpendicular with the sidewall. The carcass material of radial tyres overlaps for a shorter time and with much less tension. As a direct consequence, the tyre deforms more selectively, adapting to uneven terrain without sacrificing safety.

Higher Contact Area

The higher deformation factor of radial tyres means they offer 30% more contact area than conventional tyres at the same air pressure. Even increasing air pressure by 50% leaves the contact patch 15% larger.

More Grip, More Damping, More Trail

The increased contact area and the more flexible response behaviour provides significantly more grip, more damping, more safety and more comfort - so you get more out of the trail! These tyres absorb impacts better and use the suspension travel more effectively - they literally suck themselves into the ground. This applies to both mountain bikes and e-MTBs, which provide significantly more traction on the ground with radial tyres.

World Cup Rated

Schwalbe's radial lineup was developed in the Downhill World Cup, with Amaury Pierron taking the top spot of the podium by almost 5 seconds in Val di Sole, and over 6 seconds in Let Gets - an absolute mile in racing!

The Albert Radial Tyre

More deformation and more contact unfortunately means more rolling resistance. The Albert's clever tread design is optimised to maximise grip, and keep rolling resistance to a minimum!

Features

• Radial carcass enables larger contact area and filters road irregularities much better: more grip, more comfort and more safety
• Literally sucks itself onto the ground as the tire deforms at specific points
• Profile optimized for radial carcass: Many studs for maximum control and good durability
• Offers safety and control in all situations
  
• More flexible under the tread, with the same lateral stiffness as cross-ply tyres, maintaining stability
