The base tyre - reTyre One. The only e-bike tyre you’ll ever need. A slick asphalt tyre that works great on its own. Optimal design for low rolling resistance. Test-winning and durable zip-on technology lets you mount on all reTyre skins.
Fast rolling
The fast-rolling, slick tread maximizes traction on asphalt roads and ensures a smooth ride.
Integrated zipper
Our patented zip-on technology includes durable zippers integrated onto the side walls.
Special features
- Puncture protection
- Reflective stripe
Ice Racer - This skin contains 300 studs with 12 unique locations in the contact patch which makes it the ultimate skin when commuting where the streets are not cleared regularly. The skin is especially designed for hilly areas where you need more grip and stability when braking and cornering while riding down steep roads.
- Active Snow Shredder: Additional built-in functionality includes specially engineered knobs that will flex to shed snow.
- Winter Rubber: Our winter rubber compound is engineered to provide optimal traction on ice and snow.
- 300 Dual Compound studs: This skin has 300 studs with 12 unique locations in the contact patch, carefully distributed to ensure safe grip on ice.
The Ice Racer skin adds approximately 7mm (0.25 inches) to the height and 14mm (0.5 inches) to the width of your reTyre One base tyre when mounted.
In terms of standard sizing for tyres, the effective tyre size with the Ice Racer skin is:
26'' = 50-559/26x2.0
27.5" = 57-584/27.5x2.25
28'' = 50-622/28x2.0
29'' = 57-622/29x2.25
ONE base tyre sizes:
26'' = 42-559/26x1.60
27.5'' = 52-584/27.5x2.00
28'' = 42-622/28x1.60
29'' = 50-622/29x2.00
28 and 29 rims are the same diameter. Our 28" tyres will fit 29" rims, the only difference being that the 28" is more narrow than the 29".
All reTyre skins are compatible and interchangeable with the reTyre One base tyre of the equivalent diameter.
reTyre is a modular tyre system with interchangeable skins, featuring a integrated zip-on technology, allowing you to adapt your tyre in seconds.
The Modular System means that our tires consist of 2 modules:
- The reTyre One base tyre, a fast and slick road tyre. Always on the bike and with integrated zip-on technology.
- reTyre Skins for diferent road conditions. Also with integrated zip-on technology, making it fast and easy to take them on and off the base tyre.
reTyre performs just like any other conventional tire, while the integrated zippers offer additional functionality. With reTyre, you can change/adapt the tire tread in less than 30 seconds. It is easy, it is fast and it is safe! With our tires, cyclists always have the best possible grip, because Skins are light, foldable and easily brought with you.
1. Mount the base tyre on the rim like any conventional tyre and inflate to the recommended tyre pressure noted on the tyre.
2. We recommend that you let the tyre sit on the rim for 24 hours or have a short ride before mounting the skin. This important step will allow the base tyre to expand and reach its normal size; which will guarantee a perfect fit between the skin and the base tire and the optimum conditions for use.
Zipping on the skin:
1. Pin position
Attach the starting point to both sides of the tyre before closing the zipper. Check that the starting point is properly attached before you begin to close the zipper.
2. Stretch
While closing the zipper, stretch the skin a bit to make sure it fits perfectly. Alternate between the sides while you close the zippers to reduce the resistance. The skin should meet itself at the end.
3. Puller
Finally, when the skin is installed, remember to close the puller into the locked position to secure it.
No, you need to buy a base tyre to use the reTyre system. This bundle includes two base tyres and two Ice Racer Skins - all you need!
Heavy snow, extreme weather conditions and black ice.
All types of city roads, paved roads, tarmac, wet or dry asphalt.
The only difference is that the studs have a “running-in period" of minimum 25 km riding on asphalt, with low speeds and careful braking and turning in order for the studs to “fuse” together with the rubber, which is the norm for studded tyres. After the running-in period, use the studded skins normally while on snow/ice and use the base tyre for dry periods.
Yes, if you are actively riding in winter season it is perfectly normal to lose some of the studs, but you can order the studding tool with spare studs and easily ready your skins for the next season. No need to buy a new skin!
No. The Skins fit perfectly to base tyre (reTyre One) inflated and already used on your bike. No extra work required.
Yes, you can. Depending on your ride style, weather conditions and personal preference, you can choose to: Mount reTyre One and Winter Traveler only on the front wheel, for advanced users who wish to reduce rolling resistance even in the winter months; Mount Ice Racer on the front and Winter Traveler on the rear wheel, provides even better grip on the front combined with less rolling resistance on the back, which works great on deeper snow.
In this bundle you get:
2 x reTyre ONE base tyres
2 x reTyre Ice Racers Skins with 300 studs.
How it works?
Zip on - Zip off!
Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Kauf, man sie schnell wechseln von Sommer auf Winter und natürlich von Winter auf Sommer! Perfekt für unser Wetter in Deutschland👍🏻
Bin seid zwei Wochen mit Spikes unterwegs und bin sehr zufrieden damit.
Die Idee ist wirklich klasse. Bei Schnee und Eis sind Spikereifen super, aber in den aktuellen Wintern gibt es immer mehr Tage wo man auf trockenem Asphalt unterwegs ist. Da nerven dann die Spikes sehr. Reifen wechseln ist aber zu aufwendig.
Die reTyre-Spikereifen hab ich in 2min abmontiert und in 6min montiert. Und das bei den ersten versuchen. Mit etwas Übung kann das durchaus noch schneller werden.
Ich habe die Spikes meiner Ice Racer wie vorgeschlagen 50km auf Asphalt eingefahren und bin sehr zufrieden. Bisher habe ich noch keinen einzigen Spike verloren. Bei meinen alten Spikereifen sah das leider anders aus.
Seit dem sind Schnee und Eis zurück und ich kann leider nicht viel zu Fahrverhalten des Grundreifens sagen. Die Testrunde war jedoch vielversprechend.
Die Ice-Racer sind sehr gut auf Schnee und Eis. In den Kurven sind sie nicht ganz so toll. Das kann aber auch eine meinen breiten Felgen liegen wodurch das Profil nicht ganz so abgerundet aufliegt wie man es auf den Bildern sieht.
Aber mit Spikereifen muß ich auch nicht extrem in Kurven liegen. Daher ist alles gut.
The system works great and saves a lot of work. I use my e-bike in any weather to get to work. So it is a great relief to mount the winter skin (I use Ice Racer) in such a short time. Stretching the Ice Racer skins requires some strength and sometimes the zippers are difficult to move. But it's worth it. It only takes me 2-3 minutes to mount a skin. I'm already looking forward to spring when I use my Gravel chaser skins.
