Easier installation means less time fussing with set-up and more time riding. Because every Bontrager TLR product is designed and tested as a complete system, everything works better together from the start.
R3’s improved Hard-Case Lite protection prevents punctures, and TLR Sealant can actually seal punctures before they become flats. When they’re part of your tubeless set-up, you’ll enjoy more miles and fewer flats.
Bontrager's proprietary TR Speed Compound rolls faster. We went back to the drawing board and totally reworked our rubber compound to deliver a tyre that is faster in the lab and faster on the road.
The updated tread design, casing construction and all-new TR-Speed Compound deliver the perfect blend of speed, traction and tread life. Detailed testing shows significant improvement in wear rate so you can get that new tyre feel for longer – lots longer.
The R3's lightly treaded casing adds traction and cornering confidence. As the tyre size increases the traction becomes more pronounced, perfect for aligning tyre size with intended use.
Bontrager offers a complete tubeless system including wheels, tyres, sealant, valves, and rim strips. Every part of this set-up is designed to work smoothly together, for the best in performance and ease of use.
If for any reason you’re not satisfied with a Bontrager or Trek aftermarket purchase, return the item, along with the original sales receipt to the original place of purchase within 30 days for an exchange or refund. Think of it as a 30-day test ride.
