Introduction<br />
intRoduction<br />
<strong>2007</strong> brings another excellent year for <strong>Panaracer</strong> products. We have several<br />
new products in the pipeline that will continue to deliver the quality products<br />
and cycling performance you have come to expect from <strong>Panaracer</strong> products.<br />
On the road side we’ve great news with our<br />
EVO2 racing clincher and our sponsorship of<br />
the Milram Pro Tour professional cycling team.<br />
Alessandro Petacchi and Eric Zabel are the<br />
co-leaders of this team. The team is equipped<br />
with the fantastic new EVO2 and will be racing<br />
and training on this tire during the coming seasons. The EVO2 is an excellent<br />
tire for racing on the roads of Europe. Not only is the tread capable of handling<br />
many types of road surfaces, the compound of the EVO2 is adept on hot or<br />
cold, wet or dry surfaces. It is truly an all condition tire in the truest sense of the<br />
word.<br />
MTB and urban tire offerings for the coming year include the following products.<br />
Razer XC and MX are our newest racing XC and marathon tires. Rampage<br />
is our latest and greatest all-mountain tire. Last but equally important is our new<br />
UFF’ DA! It is a great urban jumping tire that can conquer all types of radical<br />
urban riding environments.<br />
Cyclists keep coming back again and again to <strong>Panaracer</strong> tires, tubes and accessories.<br />
Please have a look through our <strong>catalog</strong> and find out what happens when<br />
technology, sport and passion meet at the contact patch of a bicycle tire and<br />
you will understand why cyclists continue to return to <strong>Panaracer</strong>.<br />
panaRaceR the company<br />
Formed in 1948, <strong>Panaracer</strong> began manufacturing rubber products for a variety of<br />
commercial and consumer applications. In 1978 we began to exclusively produce<br />
bicycle tires so we could carefully focus on producing the finest tires available today.<br />
Without a doubt, <strong>Panaracer</strong> is the last Japanese manufacturer still producing<br />
bicycle tires in Japan. We feel that our domestic production allows us to keep our<br />
quality control at the highest levels.<br />
On staff we have seven full time R&D engineers constantly researching compounds,<br />
tread patterns and casing technology. Additionally, there is a emphasis<br />
on cutting-edge CAD tread and profile development. This advanced first stage of<br />
tire creation allows us to quickly advance new tire designs and product development.<br />
We are also constantly upgrading our molds and bladders, both important<br />
tools for producing reliable cutting-edge rubber products.<br />
For the tire production itself, we use only the<br />
finest hand-picked raw materials to create our<br />
casings and compounds. When those material<br />
choices are combined with our patented technology,<br />
the end result is the finest tires that<br />
you can cycle on today.<br />
In the 28 plus years of exclusively focusing on bicycle tire design, we’ve created<br />
some of the most ground-breaking tires ever used by cyclists. Smoke and Dart<br />
are such an example of that history. These models left such an indelible mark on<br />
MTB tire performance that they are still in production today due to their continued<br />
popular demand and their trend setting performance.<br />
compound R&d<br />
We devote many resources to R&D to<br />
develope new compound technology.<br />
This is a very important aspect of or<br />
product development. For example,<br />
our newly developed “Tangent Delta<br />
Technology” mixes a perfect blend of<br />
silica and carbon to provide a groundbreaking<br />
combination of strong grip<br />
and low rolling resistance. We call this<br />
compound ZSG. It makes use of a special<br />
high-performance polymer that form the<br />
core of the “Tangent Delta Technology.”<br />
We have developed two types of ZSG<br />
compound, each with a special purpose.<br />
www.panaracer.com
compound tech<br />
ZSG Ultima provides<br />
incredible grip in wet<br />
or dry road conditions<br />
and superior handling<br />
performance. ZSG Ultima will wear at<br />
least 10% longer without sacrificing any<br />
riding performance.<br />
The new ZSG Natural<br />
formula integrates more<br />
natural rubber into<br />
the compound. This<br />
compound has the same low rolling<br />
resistance as the premium compound<br />
and it has enhanced wear resistance<br />
making it perfect for a long wearing<br />
training tire.<br />
Adding silica compounds<br />
to tire treads vastly improves<br />
tire life, increased<br />
durability and grip.<br />
We use this proprietary<br />
compound in our butyl<br />
tubes to enhance butyl’s<br />
natural benefits. The result<br />
is a tube that has the best balance of<br />
weight to strength while providing an<br />
exceptional road feel.<br />
www.panaracer.com<br />
casing tech<br />
A super supple proprietary<br />
casing. This<br />
incredibly strong casing<br />
is layered in a 3-Dimensional<br />
configuration to provide great<br />
road feel while protecting you from<br />
objects that may cut your tires. Tough<br />
and lightweight compared to other protective<br />
casings on the market. Excellent<br />
for training or racing.<br />
d casing<br />
Inner Layer<br />
Outer Layer<br />
This is a lighter and<br />
stronger casing. The<br />
density of the fiber is 1.5<br />
times as much as normal<br />
tire casings. Pinch flat protection is 1.6<br />
times improved. Side cut protection is<br />
2.6 times improved. The surface of this<br />
casing is very smooth. It helps prevent<br />
punctures when the tube rubs against<br />
the casing.<br />
coRd tech<br />
The cord used to create tire casings is<br />
perhaps the most important component<br />
of bicycle tire technology. The casing is<br />
the part of the tire that holds all the different<br />
elements of the tire together.<br />
BAX technology uses<br />
extremely narrow 0.14<br />
diameter cord which is<br />
weaved at a super high<br />
density into the casing for lightness<br />
and flexibility. This increased density improves<br />
resistance to cuts and abrasions.<br />
800D polyamide cord is<br />
nearly twice as strong<br />
as the cord used in<br />
conventional tires. It<br />
improves rigidity, pinch flat and side cut<br />
protection.<br />
400D Cord technology<br />
improves side cut resistance<br />
of your tire while<br />
improving the rigidity<br />
during cornering.<br />
mtb tRead tech<br />
<strong>Panaracer</strong>’s exclusive<br />
Multi-Step knobs<br />
have various heights<br />
designed into each<br />
knob These stepped knobs help tires<br />
to perform in all conditions from hard<br />
to soft. Short big knobs are specially<br />
designed to provide an excellent ride<br />
that also delivers the lightest weight full<br />
knobby MTB tires.<br />
3D Knobs are designed<br />
to perform multi-directionally<br />
and are located<br />
on the tire sides. They<br />
are positioned in multiple directions to<br />
help maintaining traction and durability<br />
while riding on the side knobs.<br />
d Knobs<br />
upgRade tech<br />
When you see the ASB<br />
logo, it means that the<br />
tire has a proprietary<br />
anti-rebound rubber<br />
strip that reduces the chance of pinch<br />
flats by an average of 40%!<br />
Tourguard is an Aramid<br />
fiber belt placed under<br />
the tread to improve<br />
puncture resistance<br />
without increasing tire weight or sacrificing<br />
performance.<br />
PR is a puncture resistant<br />
belt placed under the<br />
tread. It is lightweight<br />
and uses a strong fiber<br />
composition to achieve its puncture<br />
resistance capabilities.<br />
The Universal Tubeless<br />
System was developed<br />
by Mavic. UST allows you<br />
to run tubeless tires at<br />
a lower pressure for excellent<br />
traction and control. Pinch flats are<br />
virtually eliminated and ride quality is<br />
vastly improved.<br />

URBAN CYCLING TIPS<br />
The best way to protect yourself while sharing urban streets<br />
with motor vehicles it to ride very defensively. When coming<br />
to a traffic light or stop sign controlled intersections, try to<br />
make eye contact with the vehicle operator that may be<br />
crossing your path. Always signal your intentions in advance<br />
and keep as far to the side of the road so that overtaking<br />
vehicles have room to pass. At night, always equip your<br />
bicycle with a headlight and taillight.<br />
