The Panaracer DriverPro will have bigger 2.4 and 2.6 widths in both 27.5 and 29er by Spring 2018.

For now, it’s available in 2.20 widths, providing a small knob, fast rolling tire for general conditions. The 29×2.2 comes in at a claimed 590g, so look for the larger sizes to be reasonably light options when you want more volume.

The PanDura gets a 27.5×2.6, also, joining the existing 2.4.

Think of it as a deeper tread version of their original Dart.

Tanwall tubeless compatibile slicks? That’ll be a pleaser.

Panaracer makes Compas tires, 700×38 Barlow Pass. Hopefully they will prove more durable than those.
