We deliver! Just say when and how.
Born in the American Midwest, gravel riding is one of the fastest–growing styles of cycling. The sense of adventure, conquering new challenges, and simply experiencing a new style of riding are some of its big selling points, but doing so without the proper tires makes the difference between having fun and cursing and hollering on the side of the road. The Pathfinder delivers the versatility that these adventure-laden rides deserve—fast rolling, lots of grip, and a whole lot of fun.

este es mi segundo juego de llantas, son bastante duraderas y rodadoras,
After a couple of years of riding other tires I have come back to the 38mm Pathfinder Pros that came stock on my Diverge. Mounted on some 25mm internal width carbon wheels, this might be the best do-everything, go-everywhere setup I have ever ridden. Sure my narrower slicks are a bit better on the road and my wider knobbies are a bit better in the truly chunky stuff. However, the Pathfinders reign supreme as the jack of all trades.
No amount of Stans will stop the sidewalls from leaking. It's time to replace these garbage tires.
터보 바도 4.0도 튜브리스가 됩니다. 테이프 사서 꼼꼼히 붙이면 튜브리스 됩니다. 기존 터보 바도 4.0은 땅을 치면서 엉덩이가 불편했는데 튜브리스 타이어로 바꾸니 조그만 요철은 부드럽게 넘어갑니다. 땅에 붙어서 착착 나아가는 느낌입니다.
3.600 kilometros (1 año) sin pinchar y a prueba de todo, Rutas realizadas en gravel (Choike Gravel Fest, Las Varas hacia camino farellones, Laguna Aculeo + Cuesta Cepillo). Rutas Brevet 200, 300, 400k.
전에 쓰던 세미슬릭 타이어보다 속도도 잘 나와요
Love these tires…my second set…on my wife’s bike as well.
Great tire 38 mm, sticky and reliable cornering but I will switch to 42s cause more comfortable and actually faster plus more efficient climbs on pavement and roads ( I was testing them in comparison to 42mm thinking speed and weight but it’s the opposite so I’m putting 42s back) otherwise absolutely incredible product, highly recommended
Great tire, fast and durable. I would purchase again and recommend.
I'm on the 700x47 and I'd argue this tire performs better than ever other tire I've ridden, in every condition I've thrown at it. Asphalt, fast. Smooth gravel, fast. Rough gravel, fast. Chunky rock sections, fast. Add to that, the cornering grip is the best I've experienced. It just does it all. I've ridden the full Pirelli Gravel tire range, Schwalbe G-One RS, and a few others, and the Pathfinder stands out of the crowd.
Nice rolling tire on road and gravel. Great for summer dry, mixed surface rides.
The only set of tires I use. I have them in 32s, 38s, and 650b
I just replaced my old tires , a pair of ride tour 700x32c and the differenc is unbeliveable, its more wide , but still weights so much less that you actually can feel the difference. And the way it turns and grips is just over every expectations. It gave my bike new possibilities. More stable, more comfortable, and weights more then 200g less in total. So 5 star for it
This is a really versatile tire! I run the 42's for spring rough conditions in Wisconsin and they're great. I had the sport version (38's) on my diverge and put well over 1k miles on them with no issues. They're reasonably fast and handle everything I run in to.
I got these to use on my diverge. Ive been using other tire brand in 40mm and they had been fine, but I wanted to see how much more comfortable was using a 47mm tire on my bike and it definitely was worth the change. These tires feel extremely comfortable and honestly I don’t feel much drag from them. I normally ride 50/50 gravel/road I weight 175 with no gear and ride them at 33psi on the back and 30 psi front. Last weekend I did a 62 mile group ride and just pumped them to 40psi and I was able to keep up with all the roadies to the point that at the end of the ride one guy came to see if I was riding an ebike because hes never seen anyone riding such big tires and keeping up with the group on a regular bike. I highly recommend this tire, it definitely does it all!
Muy rodadores y los flancos bien protegidos Hay que usarlos tublees hacen la diferencia
The 47mm Pathfinder Pro will fit the Giant Revolt just fine with the flip chip in the standard position. This tire is the de facto gold standard for gravel.
Ich habe lange nach neue Reifen für mein Reiserad gesucht und bin bei diesen fündig geworden.
This tire comes completely folded up like a piece of paper which makes it more difficult to install. As a result my tire has a flat spot on it which makes it wobble.
The Pathfinder Gravel Tire is a game-changer for gravel enthusiasts. With its innovative design, it offers the perfect balance between smooth rolling on hard surfaces and exceptional grip in loose conditions. The tire's durable construction withstands the rigors of gravel riding, ensuring longevity and reliability on the most demanding trails. Its versatility shines, performing admirably across a variety of terrains, from country backroads to rugged singletracks. The Pathfinder provides confidence-inspiring handling, allowing riders to push their limits while maintaining comfort over long distances. Whether you're a competitive racer or a weekend adventurer, these tires are a top-notch choice for anyone looking to elevate their gravel riding experience. Five stars for the Pathfinder Gravel Tire – it truly sets the standard for versatility and performance.
I chose the 38 size tires and they are perfect for my use. I found 40's were too large and 35’s too narrow. I have had other gravel tires that were too light and failed or too heavy. The Specialized is perfect for light to medium gravel and with the center strip perfect for the road. This tire is a perfect balance of tough and good tor the blacktop.
Muy rodadores
Easy to install tubeless, tires feel smooth on tarmac
Durable and reliable
Montati tubeless sulla Specialized EPIC HT mi hanno davvero sorpreso per il comfort e la tenuta di strada, oltre l'ottima scorrevolezza sia su strade bianche che asfalto. Ottimo prodotto!
I had the TLRs installed on my BMC Alpenlite commuter e-bike hardtail. I added Fox forks which makes it very comfy for gravel, trails or road. I can flip onto gravel from road without any problem. I use lower tire pressure for wet or snowy roads and single track and road and still have a great ride. They wear very well. Hard sidewall takes a lot of punishment from rocks, goatheads and other debris. This is definitely an all-weather tire
I ride 70% tarmac, 30% dirt. The center strip holds up very well to miles upon miles of asphalt. I got 3900 miles out of one set with a rotation after 2782 miles. I have gotten some punctures with these tires, but they might have sealed up if I had been more careful with adding/refreshing sealant. I have noticed that these tires can develop what looks like wet spots over time. This didn't seem to result in loss of pressure. Just for reference I currently have a set of Trigger Pro 2Bliss tires on my bike. The center strip of the rear tire wore to slick after 525 miles. They grip better than the pathfinders on some of the dirt terrain that I ride, but they just don't hold up to the asphalt. The pathfinders are great tires for me. The price is also good.
Coming from the mtb side with big tires and inserts, I installed the 47c version on my epic hardtail for an awesome "groadeo" bike. They roll smooth in the center, handled great when pushed into gravel corners and have impressive sidewall protection considering running them with fairly low pressure on some chunky CO gravel and washboards!
Agarra bastante bien en carretera y suelo urbano (aceras, carril bici). También cumple en tierra y gravilla. Es muy rodadora y bastante ligera. Las llevo en una Sirrus para desplazamientos urbanos y carreteras rotas y he notado muchísima diferencia a mejor con las Schwalbe Marathon que llevaba. Si las compras de oferta es muy buena elección, siendo un tanto caras a su pvp normal
These are excellent tires for gravel!
I have these 700 x 47 set up tubeless on my Specialized AWOL, mounted to Boyd CCC wheels. These went on easily but setting up tubeless with a track pump was really difficult. I love the feel of these on the road, very smooth on-center feel. I only have a 20 or so miles on gravel but these feel much better than the tires they replace. I used Silca's pressure calculator and the ride was amazing. They are quite a bit heavier, however. The tan sidewalls look great on my bike.
Great grip, low rolling resistance. Couldn’t ask for more!
Excellent tire, it was recommended to me by a cycling friend. I particularly like the center bead for road cycling!.
HO usato questi Pneumatici, sia in versione Sport che in versione Bliss Ready, dal punto di vista delle performance poco cambia per tenuta e velocità secondo me al top della categoria, sicuramente da preferire ai Sawthoot se fate molta strada asfaltata o salite compatte su sterrato, si comportano bene sempre hanno più grip di quanto potete immaginare, li ho testati in un giro Gravel anche molto impegnativo che potremo dire ai limiti della MTB e non sono affatto male, facili da latticizzare, molto difficile forare, con la camera a pressioni elevate un 38 da soddisfazioni anche su strada, uno dei migliori pneumatici Gravel in circolazione se avete in mente di spingere forte e siete agonisti.
A good rolling tire, but not the most traction in very loose conditions. I hoped width (47) could overcome the lack of knobs but was proved wrong in a pretty nasty crash. Use it in most conditions and you’ll be very happy. Not for technical gravel approaching MTB.
Nach dem Kauf gleich 60 Kilometer gefahren. On und offroad. Er läuft auf der Straße viel besser als der Schwalbe G. Ebenfalls gefahren mit 5 bar. Ist schneller und braucht weniger Kraftaufwand, war für die Strecke etwa 15 % schneller als sonst. Trotz Wind. Auf Kies und Sandwegen ebenfalls recht angenehm. Ich bin ziemlich groß und wiege über 100 Kilo. Da war mit ein gutes Abrollverhalten einfach super wichtig. Passt.
Je l’ai en 700x38 monté en Tubeless sur des Dtswiss sur un diverge e5 élite. Sur le roulant, ces pneus sont étonnamment rapides; et avec une pression élevée ils doivent être assez redoutables. Avec une pression assez faible, l’accroche est aussi assez surprenante. J’aime beaucoup ce pneu, avec une pression intermédiaire (2.8bars) ils sont très polyvalents et donc tout à fait adapté au Gravel pour une pratique « normale ».
Ci ho fatto un casino di km, anche con il carico dei borsoni, li ho bistrattati...... non hanno fatto una piega, ora a 10000 km li cambio ma potevano farne ancora. Li consiglio, ottimi su asfalto e sterrati in genere.
I bought the 700x47s for my gravel bike and I love them. I've probably put 300-400 miles on them so far and they've help up super well to all conditions, even chunky, chunder-y roads. They're also surprisingly fast. I haven't felt any drag when I've needed them to roll at speed. My only complaint is that they're not great in slick off-road conditions, but that's to be expected given their tread pattern. I absolutely plan on sticking with them regardless.
I have tried many different gravel tires and always come back to Pathfinder Pro. Thousands of gravel miles and class IV roads and not a single flat. Rolls great on pavement and handling on gravel toads is excellent. The only negative is they are suited for muddy conditions.
Smooth and awesome rolling
Incredible tires, feel like glue on pavement and gravel. I have the 700x47, and plan to switch to a narrower variety in fender season
Got these on my specialized Vado. Had three punctures in the last year all from small objections going through the tyre.
700 x 32C pathfinder pro. Exceptional all around tire. Rolls fast on the road and doesn’t hold back on gravel. If ALL you do is gravel go for the 38 or 42C pathfinder pro but if you ride mixed terrain road/gravel/trail mix I think 32C is a perfect tire. I’m 155 pounds I run them 40 psi front and 42 rear no problems. Only limitation would be deep sand. Most riders would probably benefit from a 32C tire rather than rolling around on big balloon tires. Just my opinion.
Muito bom para asfalto e estradão de terra.
Terrific tires!!!! Top notch
Produto de ótima qualidade! Muito satisfeito
I've had this tire in 700x38 tubeless on my gravel bike and have over 3500 miles on a set riding 160-200 km a week including events. I have had ZERO punctures or flats over rough W. Montana gravel - I sort of can't believe it! 40% of the miles were on asphalt. Smooth and fast on the asphalt, very controllable on the gravel, and the wear resistance is very high. RECOMMENDED!
Love these. The slick strip in the middle keeps me efficient on the road, where I ride 90% of the time. But I just got off of an 80 mile gravel ride, and never lost traction, even in the wet parts. I was worried at first with how small the outside, grip pattern was. But it worked as well as any normal small tread gravel tire I’ve ever used. I’m very happy with this one-size-fits-all solution.
After reading this tire has more Unbound (gravel race) wins than any other, I decided to try them out. After ~1000 miles of riding, they are my new favorite tire. Very fast rolling, and smooth over the bumpy stuff.
good tires
Sua rolagem no asfalto é extraordinária, se assemelhando a um pneu específico de asfalto. Porém, tem ótima aderência em terra, devido aos cravos em formato de diamante lateral. Ele é surpreendentemente durável e fura raras vezes. Pode ser um pouco pesado comparado a outros, porém sua resistência vale esse peso. Na lama pode escorregar mais, mas se vira bem. Eu gosto da medida 700x42 pois acho que traz mais conforto e rola muito. Ja fiz o Bikingman 2021 com um 700x38 e nos 1.000 km com a bike pesando 18 kg com carga não furou nenhuma vez. A versão Sworks dele deve ser incrível, pois é 200 gr mais leve o par!
I just bought a new Specialized Crux and it came with the Specialized Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss 38mm. 50 miles on the tires and there is a puncture in the sidewall. Bought 2 more of the same tire thinking maybe it's just a bad tire. Put the new one on and the same thing happened with just 2 rides on it. E-mailed Specialized with no response.
Fastest, grippiest, hardiest gravel tires, hands down.
This tire reall helps smooth out small bumps grips great in loose stuff. The clearance is too low for muddy rides
easiest mounting tubeless I’ve owned to date… running the 32mm’s on my Roubaix, great on the road and great in the gravel. highly recommend for those riders who enjoy a little of both
This is dollar for dollar a fantastic gravel tire. I use this 700-38 tire where a lot of people are on 42 and 45 and they are fast and stable.
Ho provato diversi pneumatici di diversi brand, ma mai avevo trovato il giusto rapporto scorrevolezza/confort, fintanto che ho testato questi....bisogna provare per credere, anche in velocità oltre i 50 km/ orari, danno una sensazione di sicurezza assoluta, grazie Specializzed!!!!
Response from Specialized
Grazie per aver scelto i nostri prodotti. Enjoy your ride.
I rode 32s in this years BWR San Diego and these tires were perfect. The course had sand, mud, creek crossings, jagged rocks, technical single track descents and steep ascents, and pavement. These tires handled all of it. Highly recommend these tires for gravel racing!!!
Excellent
Mt riding is 80% pavement 20% dirt so these are perfect for my gravel bike! Good rolling speed plus cornering grip, and decent performance on dirt to boot!
I love these tires. Great puncture resistance. Low rolling resistance and a smooth ride. I ride mostly on roads but occasionally on gravel and trails. Fine for all
These are the best tires. Hands down the most reliable tires I have ever owned. They do extremely well with all the different surfaces we have up here in Montana.
Muy buena atención y el producto llego perfecto a mi domicilio!!! Las cubiertas, muy buenas
Klasse im Gelaende und auf der Straße. Der perfekte Allrounder!
Bester Reifen !
I ran a 42c with tube on my 2019 Cirrus X rear Roval C 38 wheel primarily fireroad and a little pavement. This is an amazing tire. Its been flat free for three years, hooks up perfectly and is finally almost worn down thru the wear indicator S. At least 3k miles, if not lots more. I dont do electronics on this bike. Replacing it with same size but going tubeless soon. Buy this tire and you 2 will bliss.
Uso em uma bicicleta de cicloviagem. É um ótimo pneu, já rodei muitas cidades com ele, em mais de 1500km, só furei 2 vezes o da frente, o de trás nunca furou.
This is a great tire for a mt bike for gravel rides. And fast tire for pavement
Yes, the gravel tire of my dreams! Fast on tarmac, rolls effortlessly along rail trails, and a whole lot of fun dodging single track obstacles. Puncture protection is a feature I always insist upon so I can keep enjoying the ride!
A minha diverge veio com os Pathfinders 38 e, depois de experimentar alguns outros modelos, acabei voltando para esse coringa. Na minha cidade, a maioria dos meus pedais são 50/50 ou 60/40 entre asfalto e estradão, e para essas características acho esse modelo e medida perfeitos! Vale ressaltar que é um pneu muito resistente à furos (já se vão mais 3.600km e 1 furo apenas!)
Got a set of these tires for those rides that are mostly on road to dirt/gravel/limestone bike paths and it has not disappointed. Rolls fast but hooks up on the loose stuff when ya lean it over for a quick turn. I'm also expecting these tires to be awesome as the weather turns and the snow creeps into the normal rides. I'd buy again.
After and experimenting and exploring, I decided that the riding that sparked joy was light or hard packed gravel. That some pavement on such rides was fine, even enjoyable. Looking at reviews for a tire that would best suit that sort of riding, I bought the Pathfinder. It has lived up to the billing. It is super fast on pavement, close to my road bike tire. Gives enough traction and stability on light gravel. Would make a great commuter tire with a dabbling of gravel. Was not great on some deep loose gravel but it did the job.
Go to gravel tire!
Great tires! I ride mostly on pavement and only occasionally on gravel so I chose this tire because it takes quite high air pressure- 80psi- more like a road bike.
I put these on the bike in September of 2019. The 700x38s. It's now September 2022. They have almost 6000 miles on them. I rotated the front tire to the back at some point. I have never had a single puncture. They're still going strong and I did a 75 mile gravel race with them yesterday that included some sharp rocky chunky descents. I was a bit worried because they're a little dry rotted but they held up. I've ridden them on tons of gravel and lots of pavement and done ~1000 miles of loaded bike packing with them. I just bought a new pair to have just in case but I'm going to keep riding these until they start to fail in some way. I wouldn't be surprised if they make it well past 7000. Other gravel tires seem to last one season if you're lucky. I weigh 130 pounds.
Depuis 4 ans j’ai testé plusieurs marques et modèles, et le pneu que je préférais était malheureusement très fragile au niveau des flancs. Avec le Pathfinder Pro, en format 700x38, j’ai enfin trouvé ce qu’il me faut. Il est facile à monter, tient bien la pression en tubeless, est très bon dans le terrain (sauf peut-être dans la boue épaisse), et le rendement sur le bitume est excellent, grâce à la bande de roulement lisse de 1cm. Je recommande de changer le pneu lorsque le témoin d’usure est atteint, car alors la bande de roulement est facilement transpercée par les petits cailloux ou bouts de verres. J’ai parcouru plus de 4500km en terrain mixte (60% route 40% gravel) avant d’atteindre ce degré d’usure, ce qui est tout à fait raisonnable. Seulement deux crevaisons sur cette distance, dont une a nécessité une mèche. L’autre s’est auto-colmatée après avoir ôté le silex. Dommage qu’il soit difficile à trouver, en rupture de stock sur tous les sites, y compris specialized.com
My go to tire for on and off road.
Work great for road and gravel
Great gravel/ road tire. Most of my rides are on the bike path. I had the 38 mm wide tires which worked well until I punctured the tire riding through yard of abandoned house. Thank God for tubeless with Stan's. Was able to ride 20 miles back with about 20 pounds of air in tire. FYI, if you sustain a large gash with tubeless, keep pressure low or sealant sprays out So 38 wasn't available, so I bought 32. Very happy with them Do to smaller tread, quicker turns with less resistance unsure of weight, but acceleration is better than 48 as expected. 38 was better on heavy loose gravel. My only complaint is that I have to put air in the tires every day do to lose of air pressure. I didn't have this problem with Sawtooth tires. But we'll worth the inconvenience since I've ridden around 8000 miles withe specialized tubeless tires with no flats (other than the gas but that was my fault). Was a little hard to install by myself. But every room is different with tubeless so you can expect that. Well worth the effort..
Best tire I've used this week!
Good tires
Estava procurando o pneu trigger original de quando compreri a bike, este é um perfect fit para este pneu. Alia a velocidade coma banda central liza e a segurança dos cravos pequenos nas laterais...
First of all, I tried several other big brand tires that were a nightmare installing and never held air. Took 3 tries with an airshot compressor to get other brand tires mounted, and leaked air bad immediately with brand new rim tape. Thought there was something wrong with the rim. Bought these tires. Night and day difference. Specialized knows how to make amazing tubeless tires. Mounted the beads by hand with ease, used a normal floor pump again with ease, not even a fast tempo, and they seated right up no problem. Didn't even put sealant in yet and they are holding perfectly. Install could not be easier, literally. And as others have said, amazing rolling resistance for pavement, good cornering grip for pavement and gravel, not the best in loose wet stuff because of tread design, but for 80% or more of gravel rides, amazing.
Llevo 1 mes rodándolas sin parar, en todo tipo de superficies y climas, solo para el pantano no funcionan muy bien, obvio allí necesitarían un tache más agresivo. Pero en ruta, carreteras destapadas, incluso pendientes con rocas y descensos se comportan muy bien. Repito también se quedan un poco cortas al no estar disponibles (no se si solo sea en Colombia) sino en ancho 38 y 42, haciendo falta tal vez un 47 para 700. Pero por ahora es una rueda para todo terreno.
I set these tires up on my 2018 Roubaix Pro, the first tubeless ever on the Rovals it came with. Though the installation process wasn't terribly hard, I was a bit frustrated at not being able to get the rear wheel to maintain decent inflation. The first night it lost 40 PSI, the second, 30 PSI, the third, 20 PSI, and a bit more each night until finally, after three long rides and two weeks of stubborn persistence, it's finally holding well. As for the tires themselves, they're great. Just as most reviews point out, they roll great, seem tough as hell, and afford confidence in most situations. Zero regrets, would buy again, fully recommend.
I put 700 x 38 on rockhopper comp 29’er & wow!!! These tires are super light, very fast & pure fun! Can handle light off road as well. Highly recommend
Pneu excelente, muito rápido no asfalto e seguro no off-road.
O pneu se encaixa muito bem na proposta da Gravel Diverge. A parte central do pneu é linear e perfeito para terrenos estáveis, como asfalto, priorizando velocidade. Já às laterais possuem cravos não muito grandes mas suficientes para dar estabilidades em terrenos instáveis como terra, areia, gramados e etc. A única observação é quando realizar curvas no asfalto e a diferença de ranhuras do pneu fazem o ângulo de estabilidade da bicicleta se movimentar mais rápido do que nos demais casos com outros pneus, onde a mudança de ângulo é gradual.
Bon pneu. Bonne accroche. Roulant sur les surfaces bitumée. Tient bien la pression en tubeless.
Bon pneu. Bon rendement. Tient bien la pression en tubeless.
Compre estas llantas para uso mixto entre pavimento y carreteras destapadas y me han parecido geniales, ruedan muy bien en carretera de asfalto y se sienten seguras en lluvia y en carreteras sin pavimentar, además que a mi gusto presentan una estética bastante favorable en configuración transparent sidewalls, buena calidad a un precio razonable.
Durable fast rolling tires.
Using the 42mm on an Epic hardtail on various gravel surfaces. Seem durable so far and like the slick center for pavement.
Fast and smooth centerline, good for on and off road
Las bicis y equipo de gravel son diseñados para carreteras norteamericanas y europeas, donde generalmente no hay rocas y la superficie es bastante organizada, pero acá las bicis - especialmente las llantas - tienen que aguantar MUCHO! Las llantas ruedan suficiente, aunque son un poco pesadas, pero cumplen su misión. Con 35psi se les puede dar contra el mundo y no sufren. Super recomendadas
A great tyre for hybrid bikes, smooth on the road and plenty of grip on the trails.
Je suis équipé de ses pneus d'origine taille 42 , pour moi c'est vraiment le meilleur compromis. Le rendement est vraiment top même dans cette taille, J'arrive même à suivre mes copains de route . Sur les chemins il a une bonne accroche avec du confort , sa seul limite sera les terrains trop gras.
un super pneu mixte route chemin, très roulant, vraiment ,épatant .
Really like the speed with the smooth center track and the stability with the edge tread. Rode at max tire pressure and reduced level for comfort. Great performance and excellent price point for tire with puncture protection. I have never been disappointed in a Specialized tire.
