"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""The 2. 4 volume is money—lower pressures, more grip, and it still rolls quick. It smooths chatter on long days and feels planted in off-camber turns. If your trails are rough, this is the Kraken to pick.""Built for modern downcountry, the Kraken 29x2. 4 TLR scales up volume for lower pressures, better damping, and extra confidence when trails turn chaotic. The Skeleton-inspired center keeps it lively on the pedals, while taller shoulder knobs add bite on blown-out corners and granite slabs. Sideskin reinforcement protects the 66 TPI folding casing from cuts and pinch events, and the bi-compound tread blends efficiency with tenacious edge grip—perfect for riders who want marathon speed with proper trail manners."
