It’s rated to a max. pressure of 90 psi (6.2 bar)—enough for heavy riders and those who prefer a stiffer feel to their bikes. A high-tech liner keeps our supple casings airtight without making the tire stiff and sluggish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor our Orondo Grade tires, we also use an extra-strong bead material—the strongest that’s available today. This material costs a lot more. It ensures that the tire stays on the rim even at relatively high pressures. Many other companies use a hybrid bead that consists mostly of less-strong Kevlar. This is significantly less expensive, but doesn’t offer the same margin of safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe name our tires after the roads that inspire them: Orondo Grade is a 7-mile 10% climb up a side canyon of the mighty Columbia River. The Orondo Grade was the half-way point—and often decisive climb—of the near-mythical, long-defunct 285-mile cross-state race, \u003cem\u003eS2S ‘Seattle-to-Spokane.’\u003c\/em\u003e Snaking up a canyon carved into basalt cliffs, the Orondo Grade is hot and barren—a true test of endurance. (The photo shows Jan in the early 2000s leading the race up the Orondo Grade.)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supple casings of Rene Herse tires roll fast, absorb road buzz and grip exceptionally well. The tread pattern interlocks with the road surface for superior cornering grip, wet or dry. The tread has enough thickness in the center to last thousands of miles, but it’s thin and supple on the shoulders where it doesn’t wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecasing is our more affordable option: comfortable and fast, yet also strong to withstand considerable abuse.
