The Big Fat Tyre is a hard-wearing aggressive trail tyre for hardpack to damp trails. Widely spaced firm compound low centre knobs roll quickly, grip well on tough climbs and offer predictable braking on descents. Softer compound, well supported side knobs offer solid cornering grip. Tubeless ready, a competitive weight (905g 29x2.25) and with EPS puncture protection, the CST BFT is a great choice for bike parks, trail centres, bike-packing, or any rides on fast rolling trails.

Technology
EPS (Exceptional Puncture Safety) technology protection offers an added layer of proprietary rubberised polyfiber material between the tread and the casing. The tight weave of this lightweight, puncture-resistant layer prevents sharp objects from penetrating the casing and damaging the tube.
TubeLess Ready technology means your tyre is both capable of being fitted with or without an inner tube. Should you wish to ride tubeless, all you will need to do is add some CST tubeless sealant to the inside of the tyre. (Please note: A tubeless-ready wheel and valve are needed to complete the set-up.)
Compound
Dual Compound - Two compounds used within the tread of select tyres to offer lower rolling resistance and increased cornering grip.
