An extremely durable rubberized fabric with high-density polymer threads, protecting the entire carcass from bead to bead of a tire. Its excellent elasticity characteristics and negligible weight maintain outstanding riding properties of the Tubeless Supra and Downhill Supra Max tires. Textra+ technology ultimately increases resistance against cuts and abrasion. Such tires are primarily intended for riding in roughest terrains where they provide both superior reliability and ultra high performance.

An extremely durable rubberized fabric with high-density polymer threads, protecting the entire sidewall and bead area. Its excellent elasticity characteristics and negligible weight maintain outstanding riding properties of the Tubeless Supra tires. Textra dramatically increases resistance against sidewall cuts and abrasions, increasing strength and durability without significant weight addition. Textra tires are primarily intended for riding and racing over rough terrain where they provide both superior reliability and ultra high performance.

Extremely thick approx. 4 mm rubber buffer produced from a  special compound placed between tread and carcass. Thanks to its properties and size it prevents from puncture or cutoff by majority of sharp objects under standard usage. While riding in traffic riders safety is enhanced by reflex stripe applied on every STU tire. The buffer increases stiffness and strength in the crown area and such reduces drag while keeping adhesion with LONGWAY construction – Advanced resistance against sidewall puncture and approx. 2 times longer service life comparing to a  Classic tire thanks to 29TPI carcass, reinforced sidewalls and Optimal compound.

Approx. 3 mm thick rubber buffer produced from a  special compound, placed between tread and carcass. Due to its properties prevents from having puncture or cutoff and such eliminates risk of tire defect while common using. It increases stiffness and strength in the crown area and such eliminates drag while keeping adhesion. Optimal properties are reached by application together with Long Way construction and with reflective stripe with LONGWAY construction – Advanced resistance against sidewall puncture and approx. 2 times longer service life comparing to a Classic tire thanks to 29TPI carcass, reinforced sidewalls and Optimal compound.

WELTEX (CARBON RIM SHIELD) – TIRE BEAD ANTI-ABRASSION TECHNOLOGY
An extremely durable rubberized fabric with high-density polymer threads protecting the entire bead of bicycle tires. Its excellent elasticity at negligible weight substantially increases bead resistance against abrassion especially from carbon rim shoulders. 

Approx. 1,5 mm thick rubber buffer produced from a special compound, placed between tread and carcass. Due to its properties high structural strength and hardness, it prevents punctures or cut-offs. Enhanced protection is provided by additional extremely durable rubberized fabric with high-density polymer threads applied bead-to-bead. Its excellent elasticity at negligible weight substantially increases resistance against abrassion and punctures. Applied 10mm wide reflective stripe brings intensive light reflection from all angles, thus increasing safety under reduced visibility

Approx. 1,5 mm thick rubber buffer produced from a special compound, placed between tread and carcass. Due to its properties high structural strength and hardness, it prevents punctures or cut-offs. Enhanced protection is provided by additional extremely durable rubberized fabric with high-density polymer threads applied on the sidewall. Its excellent elasticity at negligible weight substantially increases resistance against abrassion and puncture.

A band of approx. 1 mm thick special rubber placed between the tread and the carcass decreases the possibility of having a  puncture (high structural strength and hardness). It increases the rigidity and strength of the tire crown, and decreases the tire drag while maintaining the adhesive force.

Excellent parameters of reflective strip warranty high quality of the reflective light during dusk and dawn, during night, during fog and when raining for the whole service life of the bicycle tire. Mitas bicycle tires with the reflective strip can use the world-wide valid quality certificate E4 88R-002058, which ensures the quality of the tire production according to the stated standards and parameters. A reflective strip on the tire sidewall – a distinctive safety and aesthetic element increasing the utility value of the product.

Special  liquid  sealant  latex-based  is  intended  mainly  for  tires  of  TUBELESS SUPRA construction in order to create tubeless system.
