The tread design is fast rolling on pavement, with large, flat arrow shaped knobs. It's four miles to the trailhead here, so that's awesome! And when finally on the dirt it yet has tenacious grip in hard cornering and steep climbs. The sidewall has some extra rubber and protective pattern. It wouldn't take much to turn this into a tubeless tire - a smooth tacky rubber on the bead, a little more on the sidewall to seal, and I hope Panaracer considers this! With all the hype for plus sizes - you might find that this 2.4 tire on your 26er is all you need, as I have. (Most forks accommodate but 26er frames max out at 2.2 or so rear - except my Mongoose Rockadile handles the big one in back too!) If it's not a race, weight is no matter, sure footing and durability are far more important, and the Swoop AllTrail delivers! Like virtually all tires rated 60x559 - the one you get will likely measure a bit smaller. But I lucked out on the first I purchased and it was at 60mm without stretching! The only one out of a half dozen different brands in fact! In the photo, the background is the 60mm Swoop, the foreground Swoop slightly smaller at 58mm. Woo Hoo!!! Time to Ride! Thank you Panaracer! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best all around tire for a 26er *by B***O on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2021* These work really well in just about everything with about 15lbs or so..Mud, hard pack snow, hard pack dirt, loose dirt, rocks, gravel etc.Not great on wet roots though or soft powdery snow., Way better then the WTB Vigilante 2.35 on my other bikeSidewall is also more stiff due to the texture? Doesn't flat like my wtbs either!Sheds Mudd better.I hear they work as a tubeless took so may be going that route soon ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best tread pattern for a 26 inch mountain bike tire hands down! *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2016* Have been riding this tire for 3 months now and love them! I mounted the front in the direction specified, but mounted the rear backwards for better traction. It really digs in and grips on my up hill climbs this way. There is a slight reduction in braking this way, but the majoity of your braking force comes from the front tire so this was a small trade off for the huge increase in traction when climbing.Was concerned that this tire might be a knock off as the Panaracer web-site doesn't show the size that I bought (26 x 2.25) as one of their offerings. The packaging sure looked legit and the tires looked like the real thing so still not sure what to make of the fact that the size isn't listed on the Panaracer site. Guess only time will tell if they will hold up to the test of hard use.It took some time to trust how hard I can push this tire into a corner, but now I'm letting it rip and am amazed at how well they hold. And did I mention how good the traction is when climbing!?! If I wasn't planning on switching over to a 27.5 bike I'd buy another set to keep for the future. Now I need to see if they make this tread pattern in a 27.5! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/73341124-panaracer-swoop-tire-with-folding-bead](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/73341124-panaracer-swoop-tire-with-folding-bead) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
