WTB Venture TCS 700x40 Gravel Tire - Tubeless Ready

One of the most popular gravel tires ever made, combining fast rolling efficiency with confident traction on dirt, gravel, and mixed terrain.

The WTB Venture TCS is designed for riders who spend as much time exploring unpaved roads as they do covering pavement miles. Featuring a smooth, supportive center tread for low rolling resistance and aggressive outer knobs for cornering confidence, the Venture delivers a balanced ride that excels across gravel roads, rail trails, hardpack dirt, and adventure routes.

The high-volume 700x40 casing improves comfort and control while WTB's Tubeless Compatible System (TCS) helps reduce flats and allows riders to run lower pressures for increased traction and ride quality.
