Specialized Pathfinder TLR Fast Gravel Tire

The Specialized Pathfinder TLR Fast Gravel Tire delivers unparalleled hardpack speed and enhanced durability that refuses to compromise straight-line velocity for cornering confidence. Don’t let its streamlined tread fool you—this meticulously re-engineered gravel tire provides 19% faster rolling, 25g weight reduction, and 30% improved cut resistance over its predecessor, offering competitive gravel racers and performance riders the winning combination of acceleration, climbing efficiency, and flat protection they need without traction penalties or fragile construction on demanding hardpack surfaces.

The fast-rolling center strip features compact knobs paired with GRIPTON T2 compound for minimal rolling resistance on straights and climbs, while grippier T5 compound on shoulder knobs delivers confident cornering traction when the line gets loose or technical. Beyond pure speed optimization, the robust 60TPI 3-ply TLR tubeless casing enables rapid acceleration and top climbing performance while preventing punctures that sideline competitors—proving this isn’t just the fastest Pathfinder, it’s also the toughest. This intelligent compound and casing design proves that race-winning speed and all-conditions reliability aren’t mutually exclusive.

The tubeless-ready construction allows riders to run lower pressures for enhanced comfort and traction without pinch-flat vulnerabilities, while the reinforced 3-ply casing withstands sharp rocks, debris, and aggressive cornering forces that destroy lighter race tires. Available in 700x35c (380g), 700x40c (470g), 700x45c (520g), and 700x50c (580g) sizes, the Pathfinder accommodates modern gravel geometry preferences while maintaining impressively low weights. Pairs ideally with Roval Terra wheelsets for optimized system performance on hardpack gravel racing and high-speed riding.
