The Schwalbe Tacky Chan is a purpose-built downhill and enduro tire engineered for riders who push the limits of traction, control, and precision. Developed with input from elite racers, it’s designed to excel in loose, muddy, and highly technical terrain, providing the confidence to attack the steepest, roughest lines with full commitment.
The aggressive tread pattern features 10% more stable shoulder lugs than the Magic Mary for unmatched cornering grip and control. Long braking edges enhance stopping power and allow for later braking, while ramped center lugs maintain rolling efficiency on a variety of surfaces. The open shoulder design improves self-cleaning in wet or loose conditions, ensuring consistent traction even in the worst terrain.
Built on Schwalbe’s Super Downhill construction, the Tacky Chan delivers maximum puncture resistance and stability for the most demanding riders. The Addix Ultra Soft compound offers unparalleled damping and traction, making it the ultimate tire for high-speed descents and aggressive enduro racing.
