Overview
The Shredda Rear uses Schwalbe's radial carcass to add contact patch, calm the ride, and increase traction under braking and acceleration. Compared with the front tire it uses a slightly shallower but more stable tread, still with an open layout and shovel effect that works especially well on soft terrain. It is aimed at gravity bikes and powerful e-MTBs that need rear-tire support on steep tracks.
