Mavic's Wheel Tire System wheel models have featured Mavic's tires for several years, but the tires from the French wheel giant are available as individual items as well. Whether you are replacing the tire that came with your wheel, or simply require a tire with a balanced combination of light weight, low rolling resistance, flat protection, and overall performance, the rear specific Yksion Pro PowerLink SSC clincher tire is an excellent option,.

A 127 tpi casing is supple for riding at high pressure, and carries a dual density rubber that was optimized for excellent grip and power transfer. The 700x25 rear tire features a tread pattern suited perfectly for drive action and the taller angle rear wheels face when cornering. The rubber is firmer in the center section for improved durability, and firm enough to reduce rolling resistance under the added weight a rear tire must handle. The outer edge and shoulders of the tire transition to a softer rubber, which delivers grip in wet or dry conditions. A nylon breaker is also placed at the center, and when combined with the firmer rubber, ensures reasonable puncture protection.

The Yksion Pro PowerLink SSC Tire was designed to be high performance clincher, and the construction and design bear this out. Ideal for high-level training and racing, this tire can handle the stress and challenges of the racing environment while delivering a smooth, fast ride. Sounds ideal. Return to Top
