What technology does it use in its construction?
Schwalbe's Smart Sam Plus comes off the shelf in a Double Defense GreenGuard casing married to their Addix Performance compound. This combination prioritizes safety and puncture protection by using a SnakeSkin all round construction with the addition of the 3mm flexible india rubber insert under the tread. An ideal option for the additional loads of an E-Bike or riders who want the most protection out on the trails.
What is the intended use?
Developed with protection and versatility as the priority, Schwalbe's Smart Sam Plus is a fortified version of the popular 'one for all' tyre. Better suited to hardpack to mixed terrain in a mixture of weathers, for sport/fun/touring purposes. The distinctive tread design stands out with its dense centre providing good rolling efficiency, low vibration and longevity, while the edged outer blocks provide safety, grip and control in off-road scenarios
Our verdict
A great all round tyre, for the riders whos limits are beyond the pavement or trail, with additional puncture protection for peace of mind all year round.
