Kenda Hellkat Pro AGC Folding Tire - 27.5x2.40"

The Kenda Hellkat is a gravity and enduro tire, developed with UR Team pro riders. An optimized tread design lets you rip across a wide range of conditions, never letting you down through sharp turns or aggressive braking. Equipped with AGC casing the Hellkat is unimpressed by any sharp object you may encounter on your ride. Don’t be just fast - be fast as hell!

The Advanced Gravity Casing (AGC) is Kenda's latest innovation for gravity orientated riders. A strip of Kenda Vector Shield, a lightweight material of woven aramid, is built in under the tread area and along the sidewalls to protect from punctures and cuts. It offers nearly three times more cut resistance than standard protective materials. A 20mm apex along the bead prevents pinch flats and burping.

The RSR Dual Layer compound is developed for gravity tires - an evolution of the existing Race Stick-E Rubber (RSR) compound. Building on the impressive original, the new RSR compound is a dual layer tread rubber, with the soft RSR compound on top and the stiff SRC on bottom. This dual layer compound offers better performance because the stiff bottom SRC layer serves as the hard foundation for the softer RSR layer to push against. The result is a compound that provides better control and lasts longer than previous versions.

The tire is Tubeless ready to saves weight and provides a better rolling performance and more controlled handling. Riding tubeless also reduces the chance of flats.

Note: Tubeless Ready tires require tubeless compatible rims/wheels, tubeless valves, tubeless rim tape and sealing fluid for tubeless mounting. Sealant fluid is not required for tubeless UST tires, but is recommended for increased puncture protection. Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
