Tire 26 "Vredestein Icon
55-559 Black Excellent Protection

Vredestein has joined forces with the renowned Italian design house Italdesign Giugiaro
to create the Vredestein Icon, a new generation tire for e-bikes.
The profile gives direct feedback to riders, which ensures a comfortable and confident cycling experience,
combined with a progressive and stylish design that exudes power and speed.

Safety and speed have become increasingly important as e-bikes become faster and road real estate is scarce in cities.
Have innovations in integrated batteries, cable technology, lighting solutions and connectivity
In recent years, a true revolution in e-mobility has been made possible.
The new pictogram clearly illustrates his dedication to the cause of progress.
Fast, stylish and modern e-bikes deserve a tire that is suitable for purpose and safety
offers under all road and weather conditions.

The development of the Icon used a great deal of knowledge of professional bicycle and car tires.
Vredestein is known for its many years of experience in mixing and processing silica.
The technology of using different connections in the central and shoulder profile - called 'Tricomp' -
was first introduced in 1993 and played an important role with one of the first users
of the band that won the gold medal at the UCI World Cycling Championships in Oslo that year.
From that moment on, the "Tricomp" became an important technology for better grip and handling
different weather conditions.

The V-shape helps to slightly deform the rubber and ensures superior water drainage.
In combination with the silica-rich composition, this allows the tire to adapt to a
wide range of road conditions

Today this experience is introduced in the e-bike market via the Vredestein Icon,
the first TriComp band in its segment.
By giving the Icon a multi-layered silica profile on top of the balloon housing,
Vredestein achieved a lower rolling resistance and excellent grip during braking, cornering and accelerating.
Given the evolution and the increased power and speed of today's e-bikes,
these factors are crucial for safety at high speeds.

The Icon has a V-shaped semi-smooth tread pattern.
Although smooth tires can give the impression that they are smoother than tires with a more pronounced profile,
in reality this is not the case: for two-wheelers more rubber in contact with the road means better grip.
The V-shape helps to slightly deform the rubber and ensures superior water drainage.
In combination with the silica-rich composition, this allows the tire to adjust to a wide range
range of road conditions.

The Icon is ECE R75 certified and has excellent puncture protection.

Which tire fits which rim?

The so-called ETRTO size (European Tire and Rim Technical Organisation) consists of two numbers:
the first is the width of the tire in millimeters and the second is the diameter of the tire in millimeters.
City bikes usually have tire size 37-622: a 37 mm width and a 622 mm diameter.
The tire width must match the rim width.
The following chart shows possible combinations of tire widths and rim widths according to ETRTO.

Emile Louis Constant Schiff became the owner of the Nederlandse Guttapercha Maatschappij (the Dutch Guttapercha Company) in Delft, the Netherlands on the 6th of November 1908.
It was the forerunner of Apollo Vredestein BV. In 1909, the company moved to Loosduinen and changed its name to NV Rubberfabriek Vredestein (NV Rubber Factory Vredestein).
At the time, the company specialized in all kinds of rubber products, including shoe heels, tennis balls, floor coverings, boots and the rubber bladders for footballs.
On September 13th 1934, most of the factory in Loosduinen went up in flames.
Reconstruction started immediately afterwards and in the same year the bicycle tire factory in Doetinchem was established.

In 1946, the NV Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Autobandenfabriek Vredestein (the NV Dutch-American Car Tire Factory Vredestein) was founded in Enschede, with the American company B.F. Goodrich owning just over 20% of its shares.
A year later Mr Schiff laid the cornerstone of the Enschede factory.
The company’s growth accelerated in 1962 when it merged with NV Rubberfabrieken Hevea in Raalte and in 1971, the company became B.F. Goodrich’s property in its entirety.
Vredestein products were soon finding their way to 125 different countries.

The Vredestein brand is over 100 years old and has achieved premium brand status in the tire industry.
Products include car tires, tires for two-wheeled vehicles and agricultural and industrial applications.
Vredestein also produces high-quality bicycle tires.
