Cyclists are no stranger to flat tires that always seem to occur at the worst possible time, so the BigRep tires have been created to help offer a new alternative to air-filled varieties.
Crafted using 3D printing technology, the tires are made from PRO FLEX filament that provides enhanced durability against temperatures of all ranges as well as different terrains. The air-free design eliminates the occurrence of flat tires to cut the amount of maintenance required on your bike dramatically and keep you riding with the same equipment for longer periods.
The BigRep tires can be retrofitted onto any bike of your choosing and can be customized to ensure they suit your needs or preferences in a seamless manner.
