New Challenge Tires at NAHBS

[hr]

There seems to be a growing trend of component makers showing off new goods at NAHBS. With the spring “gravel” racing season heating up, it seems natural for tires to make an appearance. Challenge was on hand with some tires that were debuted at Frostbike. CXMagazine.com highlighted the NAHBS showing.

From CX Magazine:

“Challenge has released an updated model of their Grifo clincher this year. We checked it out at Frost Bike last month, but saw it again at the North American Handbuilt Bike Show in North Carolina.”
