THE RACER'S CHOICE
Our race-focused Vulpine tire has quickly become a favorite among WTB’s line of high-performance tubeless gravel tires. Now available in a 40mm width, the Vulpine has solidified itself as the tire of choice for racers who need a fast, lightweight tire that doesn’t sacrifice comfort or traction.
SAME Tread.
Only Wider.
Only Wider.
"After a year of racing it, the Vulpine has become my #1 tire choice on race day. While the Vulpine 36 has proven to be the perfect tire for hardpack dirt and gravel, I've been asking for a wider version that would increase confidence on more challenging routes without giving up the efficiency the Vulpine is known for. WTB has made my dream a reality with their new Vulpine 40 tire!"

It is the perfect tire for gravel racers looking to lead the pack while also being an excellent choice for any rider in search of an efficient tire that excels on pavement, hardpack and gravel.
SG2 PUNCTURE PROTECTION
SG2 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. The nylon fibers within SG2 feature a uniquely flat profile, which reduces the amount of rubber needed to fill the gaps between fibers. Improving the fiber-to-rubber ratio increases puncture resistance, reduces weight and improves the overall liveliness of a tire. While SG2 is primarily a puncture protection layer, the tightly woven fibers also improve air retention to better maintain pressure between rides.
