The WTB Venture is the set-it-and-forget-it gravel tyre for riders who demand steadfast traction on a wide range of surfaces.

The tightly-spaced centreline tread provides a smooth and efficient ride on pavement and hardpack surfaces while still providing the grooves and knob edges needed to maximise accelerating and braking traction on loose dirt and gravel surfaces.

Rows of dotted ridgelines are repeated along the transition zone of the tread. The tight spacing provides a nearly continuous contact patch that increases efficiency as a whole, while the ridges are able to individually conform to the terrain, increasing braking traction and cornering confidence.

The Venture's large, high-volume footprint allows for more of the working edges of the tread to be in contact with the terrain. Increased surface contact between the tread and terrain results in more traction without the need for tall knobs that reduce rolling efficiency.

The Venture is an excellent choice when both the terrain and destination are unknown.

Who's this item for: The Venture is for curly bar bikes that like to get dirty. It's a great choice for adventurous roadies, touring, and gravel riders.

Suggested terrain use: Pavement, hardpack, dirt, and gravel

Which wheel? Works great on either wheel.

TCS (Tubeless Compatible System): WTB's standardised tubeless system. These tyres feature a TCS tubeless casing, which nearly eliminates flats and allows lower tyre pressures to improve traction and comfort over a traditional tube-type tyre.
