Product description image. Paris, March 26th – Hutchinson, a pioneer in French bicycle tire technology, introduces the Blackbird performance road tire. Cycling ultimately comes down to this: the three square centimeters where the tire contacts the road. Since 1890, Hutchinson has been weaving a story around this small area. The Blackbird is the exciting next chapter in this story. This chapter is written by a force that has powered champions for over a century, pouring endless passion into innovation and performance to advance the sport of cycling. The Blackbird is the result of four years of research and development, making it our fastest tire ever. It delivers a 10% improvement in rolling resistance over the previous-generation Fusion 5. At the same time, it boasts a class-leading lifespan of over 4,000 kilometers in real-world testing. Product Description Image: The key to this reduction in rolling resistance is a new SwiftEasy casing construction. The bead-wrapped casing is directly bonded to the central polyamide puncture-resistant layer. Conventional tires have an overlapping structure. The final casing layer wraps around both sides of the bead, reducing air leakage. The SwiftEasy casing provides softer contact with the road, significantly improving rolling resistance and comfort, while reducing weight by limiting the 127 TPI casing to just two layers. The result is an ultra-fast, comfortable, and lightweight Blackbird, weighing just 290 grams for a 28mm tire. Another technology debuting on the Blackbird is MachTread 3.0, the fastest and most efficient tread compound Hutchinson has ever developed. This all-new compound offers incredibly low rolling resistance and high rebound, resulting in 25% better energy return at contact with the road. Product Description Image: MachTread 3.0 is 10% stiffer than the previous 11 Storm compound, improving the tire's ability to resist the tearing forces of road debris and extending its lifespan to over 4,000 km. Grip, the counterbalance of this stiffness, remains at the same level as the previous generation. The design is based on a new, wider rim, with a tread that's 15% wider than the previous-generation tire. This is combined with a more flexible SwiftEasy casing. The result is a wider contact area between the tire and the road than the front and rear, enabling aggressive cornering and reduced rolling resistance. Available in black and tan wall colors and three sizes: 26mm, 28mm, and 30mm, with weights of 275g, 290g, and 310g, respectively. The 28mm and 30mm versions are hookless compatible. The tube-type model omits the Swift Easy casing for enhanced puncture protection. Available in black and tan wall colors and weighs 225g, 245g, and 265g.

March 26, Paris – Hutchinson, a pioneer in bicycle tire technology, introduces the Blackbird, a performance road tire. Cycling ultimately comes down to this: the three square centimeters where the tire meets the road. Since its founding in 1890, Hutchinson has been weaving a story around this small area. The Blackbird is the exciting next chapter in this story, written by a force that has driven the sport of cycling forward with more than a century of tire-to-wheel racing champions and a never-ending passion for innovation and performance. The Blackbird is the result of four years of research and development and is our fastest tire yet. It offers a 10% improvement in rolling resistance compared to the previous generation, the Fusion 5. At the same time, it has achieved a class-leading lifespan of over 4,000 km in real-world testing.
Product Description Image: Central to the reduced rolling resistance is a new SwiftEasy casing construction. The casing wraps around the bead and is bonded directly to a central polyamide puncture-resistant layer. In conventional tires, these layers overlap. The final casing layer encases the beads on both sides, reducing air leakage. The SwiftEasy casing provides softer contact with the road, significantly improving rolling resistance and comfort, while reducing weight by limiting the overlap of the 127 TPI casing to just two layers. The result is an ultra-fast, comfortable, and lightweight Blackbird, weighing just 290 grams for a 28mm tire.
