After successful tire designs such as the Reflex, Detox, and Kosmos, the JConcepts team went back to work developing a fresh design. A triple row, double spaced concept is unique, and incorporates a new tapered and square shaped pin. The tight nest of pins works together forming a rubber surface patch that handles the harder surfaces and resists wear due to their proximity. The landing "Falcon" shape arrived after experimenting and prototyping with different techniques for side bite stability.
For the pins to work together in the center, connecting bars were added to resist pin flex and ultimately provide a solid base down low. Moving to outer rows, more space is generated with clipped corners and a rolled sidewall set of pins. The new tire is stable at high-speeds and high-bite, but also allows clean-out room for deeper dirt, loam, or sandy conditions.
Inside the tire body, the JConcepts radial ribbing blends together with the included Dirt-Tech inserts. Once mounted, the Falcon tire and Dirt-Tech insert bond to form a tight-knit package that rolls well through the turns and remains balanced in extreme conditions. For the ultimate racing package, mount to (not included) JConcepts #3369 wheels available in bright white or fluorescent yellow. At the races, Mason Fuller took the TQ and won the 1:8th E-Truck class at the recent Silver State Nitro Challenge with the new Falcon tire.
The Falcons are available in super soft (green), soft (blue), and medium soft (Aqua A2) compounds giving a variety of options to the detailed driven racer. Features:
JConcepts original design and concept
Landing "Falcon" shape for side bite stability
Tight-knit triple pattern with tapered square shape pins
Connecting bar configured for solid base
Low height bars in crimping region with radial outer rib
