In developing the RCR tires, we’ve taken a volume-centric approach that prioritizes width and speed without adding useless bulk. RCR are the first road tires of this size range to be designed and optimized with the same care as a racing tire where, using lower pressures, they are thinner, faster, and more supple. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe started with our widest 38 mm model, designing it with the largest volume possible while still adhering to the regulations set forth by our governing body overlords who shall not be named. By leveraging this increased air volume to absorb impacts and reduce flat risks, we stripped away heavy, redundant puncture layers. This allows us to keep the tire lightweight, fast, and comfortable to offer riders the high-volume performance they have been asking for. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor optimizing around modern 25mm internal hookless rims, our 29mm wide tire is the sleekest option that fully complies with ETRTO standards. To eliminate the safety vulnerabilities typical of hookless setups, we integrated our Carbon BeadLock technology. Unlike standard Kevlar beads that stretch and \"creep\" over time, which increases blowoff risks; our rigid carbon fiber beads never stretch. From local criteriums to the punishing cobbles of Paris-Roubaix, Protocol RCR keeps you rolling fast and safe. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 29, 34, 38mm options\u003cbr\u003e• 290g in 29mm, 320g in 34mm, 350g in 38mm\u003cbr\u003e• 120 TPI\u003cbr\u003e• SealSkin Tread Protection\u003cbr\u003e• Fastest Pulsar compound\u003cbr\u003e• Width as measured on a 25mm rim after 24 hours\u003cbr\u003e• Designed for race conditions\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yoeleo Canada","offers":[{"title":"700 x 29 mm","offer_id":48001017839793,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"700 x 34 mm","offer_id":48001017872561,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"700 x 38 mm","offer_id":48001017905329,"sku":null,"price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/3155\/4737\/files\/tire-protocol-rcr.png?v=1790955012"},{"product_id":"silca-tire-protocol-rcg-4","title":"Silca Tire Protocol RCG-4","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ultimate off-grid tire for sloppy mud, sand, and loose rock. The Protocol RCG-4 utilizes aggressive, widely spaced lugs that shed sticky loam and mud. Designed to bridge the gap between adventurous gravel racing and mixed trail terrain, this tire thrives in shifting, unpredictable conditions like mud, sand, and steep, loose rock. Wrapped in full bead-to-bead puncture protection, it gives you the confidence to tackle everything from singletrack, OHV roads and off-camber loose rock without fear of sidewall tears. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RCG-4 features an aggressive, wide-spaced knob profile utilizing fewer, but significantly larger, lugs than our RCG-3 model.

Maybe. SILCA’s new Protocol RCG-1 tire pairs the rolling speed of a hardpack slick with the high-volume compliance of an XC race tire. From Cat 1 and 2 Gravel races like Gravel Worlds or SBT GRVL, where tempo and comfort are paramount, the RCG-1 tire is designed to push the limits of fast gravel racing by balancing speed with control. It’s also at home on mixed surface rides that regularly transition between tarmac and dirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook down the center and you’ll see a low ramped directional tread transition for forward rolling efficiency with a braking surface that bites hard when slowing down.

Arriving at gravel tire development with a fresh perspective, we took the characteristics everyone loves about fast XC MTB tires and optimized them for modern gravel with ultra-fast road tire casing concepts. The RCG-3 delivers robust flat protection without sacrificing speed. It was engineered for harsh courses and unpredictable terrain like you find in Category 3 gravel events like Unbound, Big Sugar, and The Rift. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt around our supple Pulsar casing, the RCG-3 integrates an under-tread puncture breaker selected through many rounds of testing for its superior impact resistance. Unlike conventional protective tires that feel heavy and sluggish due to high internal friction, the RCG-3 architecture minimizes hysteretic losses to protect against flats while maintaining optimal rolling efficiency and traction. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RCG-3 tread features tightly spaced, elongated center knobs that increase both in size and height as the pattern moves outwards to enhance buoyancy and contact patch during cornering. This clever shape keeps you rolling smoothly on the rubber rather than squirming on the casing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo maximize its unique structural layup, the RCG-3 is tuned for slightly higher baseline inflation. This optimized pressure dynamic prevents over-deflection, stabilizes the contact patch, and enhances pinch-flat protection without compromising traction or handling confidence. Accordingly, we added a new casing option to our tire pressure calculator to account for the differences needed for the race casing in our tires. The result is a fast, supple, and resilient tire that allows riders to attack demanding courses knowing their speed won't be compromised by a flat. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 45, 50, 55mm options\u003cbr\u003e• 495g in 45mm, 540g in 50mm, 590g in 55mm\u003cbr\u003e• 120 TPI\u003cbr\u003e• SealSkin Protection Layer\u003cbr\u003e• Fastest Pulsar compound\u003cbr\u003e• Width as measured on a 25mm rim after 24 hours\u003cbr\u003e• Designed for courses like Unbound and Big Sugar\u003cbr\u003e• Moderate tread pattern for increased grip while keeping rolling resistance low\u003cbr\u003e• Ideal when used on Category 3 gravel\u003cbr\u003e• Race Casing for flat-out speed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yoeleo Canada","offers":[{"title":"700 x 45 mm","offer_id":48001020494001,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"700 x 50 mm","offer_id":48001020526769,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"700 x 55 mm","offer_id":48001020559537,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"32 x 2.4 mm","offer_id":48001022066865,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/3155\/4737\/files\/tire-protocol-rcg-3.png?v=1790955947"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.yoeleocanada.com\/collections\/silca-tires.oembed","provider":"Yoeleo Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
