Soma Shikoro tire

Named after the component of a samurai's armor that protects the warrior's neck, the Shikoro is a quick, durable, armored tire that maintains superb road feel and instantly became a Retrogression staff favorite.

Aimed at a wide range of riders that value excellent grip, speed and puncture protection while remaining comfortable, the Shikoro features a supple high-mileage rubber compound and a bead-to-bead Polyamide Kevlar breaker to protect against both tread punctures and sidewall cuts, while a tri-layer 4HD casing offers a great balance of low rolling resistance and firm, rigid support needed for cornering.

Made in Japan by Panaracer, so you know it's 100% good.
