## Overview

The WTB ThickSlick Comp tire is a premium urban bike tire featuring a reinforced 1.5mm thick casing for superior puncture protection and twice the rubber tread for extended lifespan and smoother rides. Designed specifically for city cycling, its slick tread pattern offers optimal traction on rough concrete surfaces. Lightweight at 1 pound and sized 700x25mm, it combines durability with performance, backed by a lifetime warranty to keep you rolling confidently through the urban jungle.

## Description

It's all in the name, thick slick. Made with a burly Casing designed to withstand the roughest urban conditions, while the no-nonsense slick design provides the bite you need in the concrete jungle. Need more rubber the nearly indestructible flat Guard Casing, with 1. 5mm of additional under tread thickness, provides optimal protection to contend with any city streets.

Review: J'ai acheté deux pneus et un était cassé, j'ai demandé un changement ou un remboursement mais les délais techniques étaient expirés... J'aurais dû le monter tout de suite pour m'en rendre compte tout de suite, mais il n'en demeure pas moins qu'il était cassé.
Review: I've ridden many types of tires and bikes, and I can say from experience that these are well made and gorgeous shoes for my girl. Bear in mind they're slicks, so rain will be an issue, but these are tacky yet firm, reinforced tread line with thickness you can feel and zero rolling resistance. Love the simple clean print and how it goes right on to the tread area, very eye-catching and unique. I went with the 700x28 for my single speed, I'm around 190lbs and I like to corner hard so the extra tad bit of contact patch is great and they don't look large at all. I've just installed them and set 'em around 75psi and they felt phenomenal around the block. Will update shortly on wear and puncture along with overall performance.

## Features

- Smoother Ride Quality: Twice the rubber makes for a smoother ride through the natural absorption qualities of rubber.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will it work for 29 inch x 2.5 mm wheel size?**
A: From my experience, I have put the 26" tire on a 26" rim. A 29'er is just a 700 rim with the 28 cm wide tire option. The question that said it would not work seemed out of context. They were commenting from the standpoint that they had a 27.5 tire and rim and that the 27.5 tire would not fit on a 700 rim. Which would be true, but who would try, a 27.5 tire would be to big for a 700 rim. Read Sheldon Brown to understand rim sizes. You just need to understand rim sizes to understand a 700 tire on a 700 rim, it works.

**Q: Will this fit a 29 X 1.95? I have a mountain bike and am looking for a something that approximates a trainer wheel.**
A: I have a 26" mountain bike wheel and replaced a 26x1.95 tire with this slick. Haven't done in road riding yet, but expect no problems.

**Q: Does it come with 2**
A: price is per tire.  They don't come as a set.

**Q: Where can I find a thickslick for a 80mm rim?**
A: As far as I know they do not make one that size

*by O***. on 10 August 2023*

La recomiendo bastante se lo puse a mi bici fixie, tenía 700x25c y yo compre 700x28c, le quedó sin problemas. Se siente menos resistencia al rodar, evidentemente depende mucho el terreno pero las partes donde el pavimento es parejo se fluye bien. La estaré monitoreando pero estoy muy satisfecho además la había cotizado en tiendas locales en 750 pesos y me salio en 560. Envío rápido.
