The Sendero is for those who believe that sending shouldn't be limited to mountain bikes. As the first Road Plus™ tire designed exclusively for unpaved terrain, the Sendero combines the efficiency of drop bars with the capabilities of an aggressive tread pattern. The grooved center lugs minimize rolling resistance, while the widely spaced outer knobs provide secure grip in loose terrain. The Sendero was developed as an aggressive tire without compromise. Do you want to ride mountain bike tires on your drop bar bike? Then the Sendero is just right for you.
