hutchinson tiapan koloss
The Taipan Koloss is a monster mountain bike wheel, designed for "plus"-sized hardtail bikes to give a massive boost to performance on the trail and enduro. The SpiderTech reinforcement, as well as the 2.8" width, gives this tyre exceptional stability to allow you to roll over just about any terrain. Plus, the central knobs have been fragmented to increase lateral grip and reduce any chance of sliding.

Intended for "Plus" hardtail and all-mountain all suspension mountings. Can specifically be used mounted at the rear.
Its specific profile inspired by Taïpan provides a tire that rolls at high traction. Its fragmented central knobs ensure performance and reduce evacuation. While the laterals are ideally sculpted to optimise grip and breaking.
The new SpiderTech® construction coupled to a 2.80 section offers the stability and capacity required to put oneself onto the devilish track!

The Taipan version offers comfort and absolute safety. It is ideal for bikes with clearance of 150 mm. The best tire for riding and grip. The homogeneity of the rubber between the side and central studs provides a good dynamic response and very good grip. Its durability will seduce you thanks to a slow rebound that will last a long time. The little extra bonus for me: its compatibility with 27.5+ and 29. Something for everyone!
