Nokian Gazza Extreme 294 Studded 29er Tire In Stock!
Yup, you read it right. This is the day 29er folks that love winter riding (myself included) have been waiting for. 3 years ago I went to Interbike and stopped in at the booth of every tire manufacturer that had a 26" studded tire and asked when they would be producing a 29" studded tire. I was practically laughed out of every booth. In fact one vendor who shall remain nameless berated me for several minutes about the ridiculousness of such a quesion.
I left muttering something profane under my breath thinking they were missing out on a good opportunity. Well, 3 years gone and now Nokian has seen the light and stepped up to the plate. Am I ever glad it is Nokian. They have had the flat out best studdded winter riding tires for years so what better company to produce the first real 29er studded tire.
The Nokian Gazza Extreme 294 29x2.1 is based of their venerable Extreme 294 26x2.1 so you can bet it is going be to as good as its little brother. Well, better in fact because it is a 29er right?
