Jones Duro Crux Plus Sized Tires 27.5 and 29 x 3.25″ $80
These tires are made with DURO’s exclusive D-Tech breaker technology, a thin and light layer of high-strength material that wraps around the bias plies of the tire’s casing, providing more strength and stability, and durability. The D-Tech breaker layer acts as a reinforcement, distributing stress and forces evenly across the casing for improved performance, and reduced risk of tread separation, punctures, and other tire damage.
The Duro Crux has a thin and flexible tread section that can easily flex to absorb small bumps and ripples for a smoother, more efficient ride with more traction, on all terrain.
If you have a plus bike, measure the chainstays where the tires fit and ensure you have at least 3.75″ of clearance before ordering from Jones Bikes.

This artwork illustrates Asia dragon can be likened to a cyclist, both embodying strength, agility, and a sense of awe-inspiring power. Whether flying through the air or racing along a winding road, both the dragon and the cyclist are truly a sight to behold.
The figure of each cyclist is created using a single, continuous brush stroke, similar to the one-stroke technique used in Chinese calligraphy which moves with the same fluidity and grace as dragons. Adapting to changes in terrain and shifting seamlessly from one gear to the next.
