Why Is the Strada Bianca Pro Handmade TLR Challenge's Fastest Gravel Tire?

Challenge calls the Strada Bianca Pro Handmade TLR their fastest gravel tire and their most versatile road tire, and those are big claims that the construction backs up. The proven herringbone tread pattern handles rough roads, packed dirt, and dry gravel with confidence, delivering speed where surfaces are predictable and grip where they are not. At 700 x 36, it sits in the sweet spot between road efficiency and all-road capability, and the 260TPI SuperPoly casing gives it the kind of suppleness and compliance you would normally associate with a high-end road tire.

Pro Handmade construction means every tire is built to tighter tolerances than machine-built alternatives, and Challenge's SmartPlus Compound delivers the grip and durability balance needed for all-condition performance across extended miles. TLR tubeless-ready for use with sealant and compatible with hooked rims. Priced at $76.99, this is the tire that serious all-road and gravel riders reach for when they want Challenge's best materials in a race-day or high-mileage training package.
