Protection
Smartguard

Dualguard
Protection Level 6 – Dualguard offers high levels of puncture protection. Two layers, special Indian rubber and nylon fabric sit under the tread to give you durable protection against objects penetrating through the tread. The Indian rubber layer is highly elastic for better handling.
Double Defence Raceguard
Protection Level 6 – combining a double layer of nylon under the tread with snakeskin sidewall protection. This lightweight protection is designed for racing.

Greenguard

Puncture Guard
Protection Level 5 – Puncture Guard offers the same levels of protection as Greenguard but is more affordable and not as highly elastic.
V-Guard
Protection Level 5 – Using an extremely resistant cut layer, V-Guard tyres offer a high level of puncture resistance.
