SCHWALBE SX-R PERFORMANCE TIRE
Olympic Gold Medal, Minimalist Look, Innovative Rubber: Discover the Schwalbe SX-R Perf Tire.
Through the SX-R, Schwalbe, the German cycling tire expert, shares its expertise gained over the years in the most elite cycling categories: performance and control on the World Cup DH tracks, speed, dynamism, and durability in road cycling.
Developed since 2022, the SX-R has been tested and approved by top international riders such as Olympic champion Saya Sakakibara, Jérémy Rencurel, Niek Kimmann, and Michael Bias. During the development phase, four World Cup gold medals were won, capped by a gold medal at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Weighing 290 g (47-406), the Schwalbe SX-R is one of the lightest BMX tires ever made. Although the smooth tread may visually surprise you, you’ll be impressed by its effectiveness right from the first starts. The technical properties of its innovative rubber provide superior grip, ensuring optimal traction while minimizing rolling resistance.
Note: The Schwalbe SX-R tire presented in the 20x1.75" size actually corresponds to an ETRTO of 47-406, which is a 20x1.85" size. In this dimension, the SX-R is comparable to a 20x1.75" tire from one of the most widely used brands in the BMX market. For more details, check out this article from Fifteen BMX.
