WTB Peacekeeper Tyre
TCS Light vs TCS Tough
TCS Light tires feature a single-ply casing whereas TCS Tough tires are dual-ply. XC and trail riders often choose TCS Light tires for their minimal weights while enduro, gravity and e-bike riders prefer TCS Tough for the additional durability and cornering support. Some riders opt for TCS Light on the front where weight is more noticeable and TCS Tough on the rear where a burlier tire is beneficial. Most of our TCS Light mountain tires feature SG2 technology, which provides a protective nylon insert spanning the entire sidewall to provide extra puncture protection without the weight of a dual-ply casing.
Fast Rolling vs High Grip
Fast Rolling tires feature a fast and efficient centerline (shown in orange) compound, paired with a softer, but still efficient, compound for the side knobs (purple). Fast Rolling tires prioritize speed and efficiency above all else. High Grip tires feature noticeably softer centerline (yellow) and side knob compounds (green) to increase grip and confidence. High Grip tires prioritize traction in all conditions.
TPI Explained
TPI is an abbreviation for "threads per inch." The higher the tpi, the thinner and lighter the casing will be. 30tpi is our thickest casing option, providing the most durability, which ends up weighing the most but costing the least. 120tpi is our thinnest, lightest and most supple casing. 60tpi is our most common casing option, as it provides mid-level protection, durability and ride quality at a modest weight.
Compounds
The more layers of rubber present in the tread, the better control we have over the ride characteristics. TriTec compound features three layers to provide optimal levels of traction, support, and durability. A base of high durometer rubber supports the entire tread and is capped by medium stiffness center knobs and softer side knobs. Dual DNA features two compounds to provide an efficient centerline with softer rubber side knobs. DNA compound uses a single layer of rubber across the whole tread to provide consistent traction and maximize durability.
Protection Layers
SG1 is a two-part solution: a puncture protection layer that defends the tyre face against sharp objects and Inner Peace+ technology (IP+), which boosts the apex bead protection to 15mm, shielding the bead and reinforcing the side wall. SG1 tyres also feature WTB’s TriTec compound, a mix of three rubbers that offer the qualities needed in different areas - toughness, traction or somewhere in between.
SG2 defends all surfaces of a tire by providing an uninterrupted layer of puncture protection from bead to bead. Flat Guard features an extra layer of rubber beneath the entire tread to provide even more rubber where tires are most likely to be punctured.

Mid-way between a high speed XC race tyre and a high volume, grippy trail tyre, the Peacekeeper is versatile, do-it-all and excels at XC, trail and enduro riding in any conditions. A fast-rolling centre line and stout side knobs deliver velocity with cornering confidence.
Falling between the light, enduro-specialist Macro and the aggressive XC Trail Boss within WTB's portfolio, it features a 29 x 2.4″ profile, offering a solid footprint for control and stability. Its fast centre tread carries speed on climbs and flats, while its chunky, well-spaced knobs bite equally well into wet, dry, or loose corners, boosting your confidence, as the intermediate lugs work to clear mud, helping you to maintain your grip as the terrain changes.
Choose this light yet capable tyre when you don't know what conditions you'll be facing or you're getting ready for a long day on the bike, with a few breakneck descents thrown in. It blends performance and reliability with sharp handling and fun to let you climb, carve and charge with ease.
