WTB 2009 Catalog

WTB introduction
WTB was founded in Marin County,
California in 1982, fueled by the
need to create durable and reliable
mountain bike-specific equipment.
Back then mountain biking was
a new and burgeoning sport, and
mountain bikes weren’t much more
than cobbled‑together oddities. The
original WTB crew was captivated by the
experience of riding bikes on dirt trails,
and they started creating more durable
and functional components for their
own bikes. Soon, local frame builders TABLE OF CONTENTS
sought to outfit their bikes with WTB’s
high-end components. WTB was able to
turn a passion for bikes into a successful
4 TIRES
business.

TPI stands for threads per inch. This number refers to the thread
count in a tire’s casing. A lower TPI indicates that thicker threads

CONDITIONS: Dry, hardpack to loose
The Mutano Raptor is derived by mating three of our most popular treads—we combined the
fast-rolling centerline of the Nano, the aggressive square blocks of the Moto Raptor and the
grippy working edges of the VelociRaptor. The result is a highly versatile and predictable tire
that keeps its speed and traction on any trail. The 2.4-inch model actually weighs less than
600-grams, making it a real standout in the world of large-volume XC race tires.
