Mark Slate with the Input of Charlie Cunningham
(CC was chief tire designer and composition tester before he gave that authority over to M.S.)
chose the mold of the 26" Nanoraptor tire to be re facilitated for the test run of THE first high volume 700C MTB tire in existence - reaching a 52mm outer casing measurement.

Here a review of a customer after his initial ride on the new big wheel bike:

Hey Wes, I’m Tim Owens. I got a new sheriff 2002’ish. One of the first rides I did was a century from chucks shop in Carlsbad to the Ritz Carlton in Newport Beach🔥🔥they had a coffee shop. I’d do a century up there and sip a Cappuccino at the ritz😂😂 those 2.2 tires were no good on the asphalt. Other cyclists would ask “is that a cross bike?” “No” silence🤣😂 no more clues either “is that one of them new 29 inch mountain bikes?” “Bingo” thank you! It was a good ride on the road, but on dirt, magic. I’ve never felt such a contrast!
