The Eliminator features a new generation of tread that combines an aggressive block design with a well-balanced tread pattern. Its transition knobs help bridge the traditional channel between center and shoulder knobs making the Eliminator perfect for enduro where versatility is key. The Eliminator still has the bite of a DH tyre but also brings the manners to handle well on hardpacked trails. These characteristics also work well for trail e-bikes too combining the bite needed to stay in control on the trail with neutral handling on fire roads.The new BLCK DMND casing strikes the balance between suppleness and extreme pinch-flat protection. In order to descend all-out you need as much traction as possible. The tyre needs to conform and hold on to the ground but it also needs to protect against pinch flats. In order for this to happen only the treaded part of the tyre needs to conform grip and dampen while the tyre base serves up stability and support for better steering inputs. It also features our own GRIPTON® compound that maximises mechanical grip, damps vibration and offers unparalleled traction in either wet or dry conditions.
