Rene Herse Snoqualmie Pass- 700c x44mm

We say...

Any tyre from Compass will liven up your bike. Lightweight, supple casings deliver insane comfort- these are unbelievably receptive to tiny bumps. This model in 44mm width is amazingly speedy- as a rule of thumb go as big as possible with Compass tyres as they don't seem to get slower as they get wider!

Rene Herse tires combine the performance of high-end tubular tires with the convenience of clincher. The supple casings roll smoothly over surface irregularities. The knobs are large enough so they don't squirm, yet they are spaced far enough to clear mud. All models feature:

Compass Snoqualmie Pass:

All-road tires don’t get any better than this! We name our tires after the passes in the Cascade Mountains that have inspired them: Snoqualmie Pass (photo) was the route of the Olympian Hiawatha express train to Seattle. Today, a trail heads up the pass, with spectacular views as you traverse the old railroad trestles. You’ll enjoy the speed and grip of the supple casing on the paved sections of the climb, and the large air volume will have you float over the rough gravel rather than grind through it.

All Rene Herse tires combine the performance of high-end tubular tires with the convenience of clinchers and the width for all-road riding. The Standard casing is a more affordable option that also offers extra protection against sidewall cuts on sharp rocks. The Extralight casing takes the performance, comfort and feel of your bike to an entirely new level. The Endurance casing is reinforced for extra sidewall protection and puncture resistance, while retaining most of the speed and comfort for which Rene Herse tires are famous. The Endurance Plus casing provides the ultimate in sidewall protection for extremely tough conditions.
