Bontrager Kwaremont Pro TLR Road Tire

A high-volume road tire designed for smooth-rolling speed and comfort on any road.

Pro TLR Construction: 120 TPI with bead-to-bead puncture protection

Race Dual-Compound: fast rolling center and grippy shoulder

Tubeless Ready (TLR) for easy tubeless setup

Firm smooth center tread is key to straight line speed and softer shoulders stick to corners with confidence

The Kwaremont Pro TLR is the right choice for road cyclists who want high-volume, rough-road confidence without the premium cotton-casing cost of the RSL — training riders, commuters on endurance road bikes, touring cyclists, and anyone running a wider rim setup who wants durable puncture protection built in. The bead-to-bead protection layer makes it a particularly strong option for riders who cover high mileage on variable road surfaces where flats are a genuine concern. Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right width and confirm rim compatibility in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to work with one of our experienced staff members, or call 250-763-3425.

Picking between 32, 35, and 38mm in the Kwaremont Pro — or deciding between the Pro and the RSL tier above it — depends on your frame clearance, rim width, riding style, and budget. Our staff can help you work through all of it: confirming what your frame will accept, matching the right width to your wheelset, and walking you through tubeless conversion if you're setting it up for the first time. We're happy to sort it out in-store at either location.

Q1: How do I choose the right width Kwaremont Pro TLR for my bike? The Kwaremont Pro TLR is available in 32, 35, and 38mm. Your best choice depends on your frame's maximum tire clearance and your rim's inner width. A 32mm is the most versatile and fits many endurance road frames; 35 and 38mm suit frames with more generous clearance, typically all-road, gravel-capable, or touring builds. As a general rule, select a tire slightly wider than your rim's inner width for the best shape and ride feel. Our team can help you confirm clearance and recommend the right size at either Fresh Air location.

Q2: How does the Kwaremont Pro TLR compare to the Kwaremont RSL TLR? Both tires share the same Kwaremont family design — smooth fast-rolling centre tread, herringbone shoulder pattern, tubeless-ready construction, and 32–38mm widths. The key difference is the casing. The RSL uses a 320 TPI cotton casing for maximum suppleness and low rolling resistance, while the Pro uses a 120 TPI synthetic casing with bead-to-bead puncture protection — more durable and more affordable at $64.99 vs. $99.99. The Pro is the right call for most riders who want genuine all-road performance and flat protection; the RSL is for those who want the last word in ride quality and are willing to pay for it.

Q3: Is the Kwaremont Pro TLR suitable for light gravel or mixed surfaces? The Kwaremont Pro TLR is designed and categorised as a road tire, optimised for pavement including rough or chip-seal surfaces. Its smooth centre tread and herringbone shoulder pattern will handle light hardpack gravel with confidence — especially in the wider 35 and 38mm sizes — but it isn't designed for aggressive off-road or loose gravel conditions. If you regularly mix paved and light gravel surfaces on Okanagan routes, the wider sizes give you a meaningful advantage in comfort and grip over a narrow 28mm road tire. Our team can help you assess whether the Kwaremont or a dedicated gravel tire is the better fit for your riding.
