WTB Nano Raptor (MSRP $50) - The Nano Raptor is an XC racing classic. The round-profile, micro-knob design and large supportive casing conquer rough racecourses and roll with the punches on long trail rides. The elevated centerline tread rolls quickly on asphalt and hardpack, while the numerous working-edges track predictably in “dust over crust” conditions. The Nano Raptor is a popular choice for short track XC races, dirt jumping and urban sessions.
