Product Description

Sendero is for riders who believe "sending it" shouldn’t be limited to mountain bikes. As the first Road Plus tire designed solely with dirt in mind, the Sendero combines drop bar efficiency with the capabilities of an aggressive tread design. Ramped center knobs minimize rolling resistance while substantially spaced outer knobs promise footing in loose terrain. Looking to ride mountain bike tires on your drop bar bike? The Sendero is for you.

Mountain Bike Inspiration

But wait, isn't this a gravel tire? Yes, but no. Sendero was designed for riding loose, aggressive trails on a drop bar bike. We took the tall, blocky knobs and deep siping that are decidedly mountain tire traits and put them to use on a tire that is undecidely gravel/mountain.

Party Knobs Everywhere

Knobs are are tightly spaced along the centerline to keep it rolling fast like a gravel tire needs to, but they remain relatively tall to deliver traction while sideways braking hammering up a rocky climb. Big knobs mean big traction for those days when you want to party on your gravel bike.

Road Plus 650

Road Plus 650 x 47 tires end up being the same overall diameter as a 700 x 30mm road tire, allowing riders to benefit from both high-volume comfort and large-diameter efficiency. Inspired by progressive gravel events along the lines of Grinduro, the Sendero 47 provides an aggressive tread pattern in the high-volume Road Plus 650 format, combining drop bar efficiency and mountain bike traction.

TCS Tubeless-Ready

TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless-ready casing, which nearly eliminates flats and allows lower tire pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tire.

product technology

TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is our industry-leading tubeless rim/tire system designed to international ETRTO and ISO standards.

One layer of supple, gram-conscious casing conforms to the terrain to provide maximum performance, exceptional reliability and low rotational weight.

Specifically formulated to prioritize rolling efficiency while also providing dependable traction and lasting durability.

Available with SG2, which defends all surfaces of a tire by providing an uninterrupted layer of nylon puncture protection spanning from one bead to the other.

*WTB's tire pressure recommendations have changed over time due to further developments in technology. Riders may always reference the markings on their tires for allowed pressures ranges, but may also consult wtb.com for the most up-to-date tire pressure recommendations from WTB. We calculate pressure recommendations based on an average rider weight of 160-180 lbs and suggest increasing our minimum recommended pressure on WTB.com by 2-3psi for every additional 10 lbs of rider weight. Never exceed the maximum tire pressure marked on a tire.

TCS Light Casing

TCS Light tubeless tires feature one layer of casing to minimize rotational weight while simultaneously increasing the overall liveliness of a tire. Using a single layer of casing results in a gram-conscious tire that better conforms to any terrain and increases traction without the need for excessive knob heights that would reduce efficiency. Many of our TCS Light gravel tires feature SG2, which is our unique puncture protection technology that provides bead-to-bead coverage to ensure both the tread and sidewall are protected from slashes and punctures.

Black or tan sidewalls

It's nice to have options, which is why most of our gravel tires are available with either black or tan sidewalls. Traditional black sidewalls tend to blend in with the components and wheels of a bike and may look sleeker in the eyes of some riders. WTB tanwall tires blend retroesque looks with modern technology to create an iconic look that has become synonymous with high-performance gravel. Looks aside, gram counters may choose our tan tires because the compounds used to make them are slightly lighter than those used to manufacture black sidewalls.

Great tire with grip in the gravel

I have enjoyed riding in these tires. They grip well, especially in the gravel. The grip I. gravel is very comforting. I look forward to grinding out some miles on gravel with these tires.

Good tire with some faults.

Great on the loose stuff, good in the mud, grip for days, high enough volume to compensate for the occasional poor line choice or camouflaged rocks or roots. It's sluggish and loud on pavement, but I don't use them on pavement much. The sidewalls leak sealant for a bit, but eventually settle and hold air for weeks without issue. The rubber is soft and will wear quickly, especially on pavement, but I imagine that soft rubber is the source of the previously mentioned grip. Buy if you like to pretend your gravel bike is a mountain bike sometimes.

Tread only lasts one season

Overall, this is a fine a tire. However, the rubber on the tread wears pretty quick. I've run these as my go to winter tire for 3 seasons and I usually have to replace the rear tire after just 4 or 5 months (Nov-April) of riding in Colorado. I never got a flat, puncture or sidewall slash, but they do leak a bit. I would hope that a tire like this could last more than five months though. I use a Schwalbe G-One All Round the rest of the year on road, loose gravel, single track, and some pretty technical terrain and usually get at least 2-3 seasons per tire, so maybe 2000 miles per tire. If you don't ride a lot, and you are a lighter rider, then maybe gives these a go. But if you're looking for a knobby tire for more than one season, I'd look at something more resilient.
