After
extensive market research and feedback from commuters worldwide, one
thing became clear—riders wanted more from their tyres. The trusted
Gatorskin had set the standard for durability, but the demand grew for
something even tougher. Starting with the proven Gatorskin platform, the
Gator Hardshell was created with a unique 3-ply polyamide casing,
adding a third layer in the sidewall for maximum cut resistance. A wider
Poly-X puncture breaker belt now runs beneath the tread and into the
shoulders, providing expanded protection where it’s needed most.
Combined with the Duraskin anti-tear mesh on the outer casing, it
delivers exceptional toughness without sacrificing speed—making it the
ultimate commuter tyre for riders who go the distance.
