The influence of motocross on the beginnings of both BMX and mountain biking is impossible to overstate.
Kids on bikes, emulating their moto-heroes, is the very foundation of Bicycle Motocross.
Elsewhere - concurrently - adventurous riders were hefting old Schwinns up, down and around mountains in search of good times, inadvertently creating a new sport. These pioneers of “mountain biking” sought-out and adopted motorcycle equipment for it’s durability, borrowing grips, handlebars, control levers and cables directly from the off-road motorcycle world. It worked!
So when it came to creating some of the first dedicated off-road bicycle tires, it made perfect sense to mimic a motocross tire. Whether it was about imitating an aesthetic or realizing a perceived benefit, many of the first and best off-road bicycle tires were indeed inspired by motocross knobbies. The Mitsuboshi Comp 2. The IRC X-1 Racer. The Specialized Stumpjumper. And others.
Unfortunately, it’s been decades since a high-quality, basic motocross knobby tire has been available to us. House of Looptail® is here to change this with the new Competition Deuce™!
The Competition Deuce™ is our knobby tire in the size you want, with the look you want. It will actually fit between the stays of your early cruiser, klunker, or mountain bike, looks like it belongs there, without any stupid logos, graphics, colors, or modernized tread patterns, and it promises to perform better than any of its knobbied predecessors.
Produced for us in Japan by Panaracer™, the Comp Deuce™ is of the absolute finest quality and far surpasses anything available in the 70's or 80's. Lightweight 60tpi / 60psi casings. Foldable aramid fiber beads. And Panaracer’s proprietary ZSG™ Zero Slip Grip rubber compound which, like all our tires, is tuned specifically for this application.
If you want that authentic early “Moto” look for the vintage BMX cruiser, klunker or MTB you are STILL RIDING, look no further than the Competition Deuce™. Perfect for show, but meant for GO!
Blackwall or Tanwall.
26 × 2.125” only.
