Designed with the unknown in mind, the Rutland takes the guess work out of selecting the right tire for the ride. Ramped, tightly spaced center lugs reduce rolling resistance while more aggressive shoulder and transition lugs provide grip in loose conditions. The 650 x 47 size is Tervails largest volume Rutland in the line giving riders the most supple ride feel and largest contact patch for increase traction. The 47c width fits modern disc geometry frames to add even more comfort. When extra puncture protection isnt necessary, the light and supple casing offers decreased weight and a comfortable, ultra-supple ride quality at lower pressures when set up tubeless.
