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.
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.
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.
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.
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 R3 TLR tyres are the perfect blend of convenience, added performance and lasting durability – ushering in the next generation of road tubeless tyres.
