Shinko R525 Cheater Hybrid Rear Tyre 120/100-18 delivers exceptional traction by combining the grip of a trials tyre with the stability and braking performance of a traditional off-road knobby, making it a favourite for hard enduro and technical trail riding.
The Shinko R525 Cheater has earned a strong reputation among riders tackling rocky climbs, slippery roots, technical single track and demanding hard enduro terrain. Widely referred to as a “gummy hybrid” tyre, its soft hybrid compound delivers the exceptional grip riders expect from a gummy while retaining the cornering stability, braking performance and versatility of a traditional off-road knobby.
Unlike a pure trials tyre, the R525 retains the cornering confidence, braking performance and side bite expected from a conventional knobby tyre, giving riders the confidence to attack technical terrain without sacrificing versatility on faster trails.
Whether you’re riding hard enduro, weekend trail rides or exploring challenging mountain tracks, the Shinko R525 Cheater offers an excellent balance of traction, durability and value.
