A tire built with both on- and off-road in mind is irresistible for an adventure fan like me. When you can trust what's under you, you can push confidently into the unpaved road ahead. Especially riding somewhere as vast as South Africa. Unglamorous, but a single tire can change the entire quality of a trip.

Since it's a press launch in South Africa, is this actually a South Africa-originated new product?

This looks like a tire that'll get compared against Michelin's Anakee and the like.

Since the price bracket isn't known yet, curious how it'll compare against existing models.

As an adventure rider, having a new tire option is genuinely welcome.

Expanding the Grabber range is proof General Tire is properly answering off-road demand.

Curious just how well-balanced an on/off-road-capable tire actually manages to be.

All-round tires tend to end up feeling like a compromise compared to purpose-built ones, though.
