Technology

There can be a lot of confusion around tire technology and the acronyms used to describe them. This page gives you a dive into the tire tech used in ONZA tires and helps you to understand what's happening inside your tire.

Casing Technology

XCC | Cross Country Casing

The XCC casing is optimised for maximum speed and super low weight. The choice for Cross Country and Marathon riders.

TRC | Trail Casing

The TRC casing is the perfect compromise between low weight and puncture protection. It’s the perfect choice for a wide field of application ranging from Trail to All Mountain and therefore optimal for most bikes and riding styles.

Rubber Technology

All ONZA tires feature a dual compound rubber construction, meaning they consist out of two different rubber compounds with certain properties. By chaniging these properties to each field of application maximum performance can be achieved for every tire.

Generally spoken a combination of the following rubbers is used in ONZA tires:

soft, slow rebounding side knobs
harder center tread

Medium Compound 60
Soft Compound 50

60 | Medium Compound 60

improved compound formula for even more grip with lower rolling resistance
harder rubber on the center of the tread for optimum rolling properties and less wear
soft 45a compound on the side knobs for extra grip in corners, even on Crosscountry
and All Mountain tires

50 | Soft Compound 50

compound formula for maximum grip with lower rolling resistance
harder rubber on the center of the tread for optimum rolling properties and less wear
soft 45a compound on the side knobs for extra grip in corners
