Bontrager's newest family of overachievers: R Series road tires.
The family boasts weight-saving, speed-enhancing, and flat-preventative technologies, so that every model is lighter, faster, and stronger than its predecessor-including the R4 Aero, the world's fastest tire. Let the overachieving begin.
Aero Wings
Bontrager's exclusive aero wing technology expands throughout the line. First developed for the Race X Lite Aero TT tire, the unique aero wing design improves airflow where the tire meets the rim, so the rider uses less energy to ride faster.
Extra Strength "Plus" Protection
We've employed a variety of technologies, from breaker plys to belts in order to make the R-series tires more puncture resistant and your ride more worry free.
Higher TPI section
A jump from 120 to 220 TPI (threads per inch) allow for lighter weight tires with a more supple ride. Available on R4 and R4 Aero tires.
Clash or coordinate?
The choice is yours due to sidewall color options in the R3 and tread color options with the R2 tires.
Road Tubeless
The R4 Tubeless tire is designed to work in conjunction with road tubeless wheels providing the supple feel of a tubular, improved clincher grip and removes the potential of pinch flats.
The World's Fastest Tire
Until now the Race X Lite Aero TT tire was the World's Fastest tire. We set out to produce a faster tire and succeeded with the R4 Aero.
- less surface drag due to 220 tpi casing and low rolling resistance 62a tread compound
- less wind drag due to Bontrager exclusive aero wings and new 22c profile optimized through computer fluid dynamics
The R4 Aero lets you use less energy to ride faster while shaving seconds off your ride when compared to the next best in class tire:
- more than 9 seconds in a 10km time trial
- 37 seconds in 40km
- more than 3 minutes in an Ironman leg
