WTB Tire Venture 650x47c

The Venture 47 is our most versatile Road Plus™ tire, offering optimal performance in the widest range of conditions. The supportive center tread provides traction on hardpacked terrain, while the countless working edges on the intermediate ridges grip on gravel or dirt. The two rows of outer lugs offer extra confidence in turns and sidewall protection in loose or rocky terrain. The Venture 47 is the tire of choice when the destination is unknown but you're sure to encounter a variety of terrain along the way.

About TSC:

• WTB's proprietary tubeless sealant system, TCS (Tubeless Compatible System), revolutionized rims and tires in 2009 by combining ETRTO, ISO and UST standards with lightweight tubeless rotation weights. Never before has a standards-based tubeless system weighed so little.
• Certified as the first sealant-based tire for the UST system in 2012 by Mavic, TCS continues to push the boundaries of what is possible with tires and rims specifically designed for every cycling discipline.
• Road plus: Smooth plus-size traction and a smooth ride to go beyond the curb. Tubeless compliance plus higher volume drowns out road noise, gravel vibration and dirt imperfections.
• Dual DNA rubber compound, is the perfect blend of efficiency, traction and durability. The center tread is composed of a firmer rubber that allows for a faster roll and increased durability, while the side knobs are composed of a softer, slower rebound rubber that improves control and grip.
• Plus-Sized to Drop Bars: It just makes sense, perfect sense. Why not get the benefits of a plus-size without slowing down the pace? The extra tubeless compliance with higher volume drowns out road noise, gravel vibration and dirt imperfections.
• Fits today's endurance frames: The Road Plus retains the same geometry as existing endurance bikes, but adds a 650b tubeless wheel and tire in place of a 700c.
• Because the 650b x 47c TCS Road Plus tires have the same overall wheel diameter as a 700 x 30c tire, they require only a little more clearance at the base than a traditional road tire
• Pair it with a Ci24 Carbon or KOM i23/i25 650b TCS rim and you have a lightweight, high-volume, fast-rolling setup without having to go back to the drawing board for frame design.
