The Genus Pro CL has been developed as ERE Research's premium clincher road tyre, focusing on speed, handling precision and rider feedback.

120 TPI Performance Casing

The high-thread-count casing produces a supple, responsive ride feel while helping minimise rolling resistance. This allows the tyre to deform more effectively over rough road surfaces, improving both comfort and efficiency.

HPC Road Compound

The HPC 65a rubber compound balances grip, durability and rolling speed. Riders benefit from secure cornering performance while maintaining the speed required for competitive road riding and fast bunch rides.

Armis 1 Puncture Protection

The Armis 1 protection layer is designed as a lightweight puncture barrier that maintains flexibility while providing increased resistance against road debris and everyday punctures.

Three-Layer Carcass Construction

The 3-layer casing structure combines durability with ride quality, helping the tyre remain stable during high-speed riding while maintaining a smooth road feel.

Foldable Aramid Bead

The Aramid Bead Cord construction reduces weight compared with wire-bead alternatives and makes installation and transport easier while maintaining secure tyre seating.

Modern Road Tyre Design

Designed for modern performance road bikes, the tyre is optimised around wider rim and tyre combinations that have become increasingly popular among Australian cyclists seeking improved comfort and lower rolling resistance.
