Product Spotlight: Alienation BMX Blue Label TCS Tires.

The guys over at Alienation BMX have given their race tires a complete overhaul and branded them Blue Label. The TCS R1, R2 & F1 tires are lighter, provide more grip and are longer wearing.

The TCS, tubeless ready, tires are compatible with traditional tubes but are designed from the ground up to work with Alienation’s TCS rims, including the alloy Malice and Mischief and carbon ACME, ACME 12k and Arch Bridge rims, to offer the ultimate tubeless system for BMX racing – saving weight, reducing rolling resistance and most importantly significantly reducing the chance of a flat tire.

Manufacturer’s Description
