WTB NANO TCS LIGHT FAST ROLLING DUAL DNA SG2 (29" X 2.1)

Nano combines an iconic tread pattern with proven tubeless technology to create a well-rounded tire designed to go the distance. The raised centerline tread minimizes rolling resistance on hardpack while outer knobs are given the space to dig independently. After a decade of proven performance, the Nano has established itself as an excellent choice for endurance racing and touring.

Minimal Rolling Resistance
You'll be surprised at how fast the Nano rolls for a tire with such tall knobs. The magic comes from the consistent spacing of knob groupings to allow the tread to glide across the surface of hardpack terrain.

Toothy Knobs
While the consistent knob spacing makes the Nano incredibly fast and efficient, the height of the knobs provide traction by digging while pedaling or braking on loose surfaces. This ensures the Nano is always fast but also confident when you need it to be.

Flying V Pattern
Inspired by birds that fly in a V formation to improve efficiency, all knobs on the Nano channel speed through a repeated V pattern to transfer every watt of your energy from one knob to the next with as little energy loss as possible.

About TCS
WTB’s proprietary sealant tubeless system, TCS (Tubeless Compatible System,) revolutionized rims and tires in 2009 when combining ETRTO, ISO, and UST standards with light tubeless rotational weights. Never before had a standards-based tubeless system weighed so little.  Certified as the first sealant-based tires for the UST system in 2012 by Mavic, TCS continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible through purpose-built tires and rims tailor-made for every discipline of cycling.

TCS light fast rolling (LFR)
A fast and efficient centerline tread compound matched to sticky, low durometer side knobs coat a supple, gram-conscious casing designed to be compliant while still trail worthy.     

Dual DNA Rubber compound    
Dual DNA is the perfect mix of efficiency, traction and durability. The centerline tread features a firmer rubber compound that boasts faster rolling and increased durability, while the side knobs are composed of softer, slower-rebounding rubber that improves control and grip.

SG2 puncture protection
TCS Light single-ply mountain tires are available with SG2 puncture protection. SG2 is a lightweight nylon layer that protects all areas of the tire with an additional level of defense against punctures and pinch flats. Bead-to-bead SG2 also improves sidewall stability and overall tire support without the additional weight of a Tough (dual-ply) casing.

Flat nylon fibers within SG2 reduce the amount of rubber needed to fill the gaps between fibers compared to traditional protection layers with round fibers. The increased fiber-to-rubber ratio boosts puncture resistance while reducing weight and improving suppleness compared to our Tough casings. Third-party lab testing showed bead-to-bead SG2 provides 80% more sidewall protection than traditional single-ply tires without SG2.
