The Wrangler Tire Range

Goodyear Bicycle Tires has launched the Wrangler as the newest addition to its range of tires for mid to long travel mountain bikes. The Wrangler tire range is designed to excel in dry and rocky conditions and is available with both Enduro and ElectricDrive constructions. Rubber Kinetics is Goodyear’s official licensee for bicycle tires and introduced its first bike range in 2018.

The Goodyear Wrangler tires are the culmination of countless hours of rigorous laboratory and real-world testing and offer riders confidence-inspiring performance in the most extreme environments. Optimized for dry to intermediate terrain, the Wrangler adds a new dynamic to the Goodyear range and sits alongside the already well-established Newton.

The Wrangler marks the first introduction of the ElectricDrive concept into mountain bike tires which features materials and construction that provide additional support and protection while maintaining exceptional grip and battery life.

“The Goodyear Wrangler is an exciting addition to our mountain bike lineup. As the newest member of our gravity range, it sits next to our popular Newton and targets dry and rocky conditions,” says Bastien Donzé, Product Director for Goodyear Bicycle Tires. “Over the course of the Wrangler’s development, including multiple iterations, prototypes and an extensive field test program in a variety of conditions and trails around the world, we have truly come up with a tire that that helps enable a better ride. With so much grip and support on tap, the Wrangler gives you the confidence to keep it wide open at all times.”
