Requires an inner tube (sold separately). Best suited for urban commuters, city riders, and touring cyclists who need a tire that handles pavement efficiently while providing puncture protection and comfort over imperfect road surfaces. The semi-slick tread makes this tire fast on smooth roads while the textured shoulders provide confidence when cornering on bike paths or navigating city traffic. The 35mm width offers enough cushioning to smooth out potholes, expansion joints, and rough pavement without the sluggish feel of wider tires. Not recommended for off-road riding, gravel, or mountain biking where more aggressive tread patterns are needed. Ideal for riders prioritizing reliable transportation, comfort, and puncture resistance over absolute minimum weight or maximum speed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"700 x 35C BLACK","offer_id":45048408244403,"sku":"31-902","price":13.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24X1 3\/8  GUM WALL","offer_id":45048408277171,"sku":"31-411","price":5.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8737\/2979\/files\/c979_800x_c8e26bcd-8e07-4bef-ba65-0ae259e57849.jpg?v=1781209973","url":"https:\/\/time2shinebmx.com\/products\/tipplus_5024317833269","provider":"Time 2 Shine ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
