Bontrager Montrose RSL XT TLR MTB Tyre

Overview

Montrose Product Overview

Montrose is our uber-grippy, do-it-all trail tyre. With more aggressive tread than Sainte-Anne and a more durable XT construction, it’s the perfect blend of grip, durability and speed for fast trail riding. Tune in as Cam McCaul breaks it all down in this video.

"These things feel like rockets… on a mile long stretch of slightly climbing dirt road, for a given heart rate I found myself riding a cog or two smaller, and between 1-2 mph faster."

"They felt like a great fit for this bike’s intentions" [Top Fuel Gen 4]

"fast rolling, and the rubber compound is grippier in the wet"

Features

Home to a variety of fast singletrack that runs the gamut from rocky and techy to smooth and fast, Montrose, Colorado, calls for a tyre that's as versatile as it is fast-rolling – and Bontrager Montrose tyres deliver.

The tread design on Montrose is a fast-rolling trail tread pattern for grip and speed in hardpacked conditions.

A strong and supple 120 TPI casing with square-woven nylon bead-to-bead puncture protection and butyl apex inserts for pinch-flat protection.

A medium centre rubber provides braking and climbing traction while soft shoulders add cornering confidence and an ultra-supportive base helps maintain a fast-rolling tyre.

A properly set up tubeless system lets you run lower tyre pressure for better traction, added confidence and a smoother, faster ride.

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.
