This is the tire for those who like the extraordinary. The Firestone Knobby used to be standard equipment on many military vehicles and really stands out in the crowd.

Distinctive tread pattern which derives from racing tires which are used for competition on pre-war race cars. However, the Ecxcelsior Comp H tire will add a uniqe look to any custom bike, too.

Gravel, rocks and roadkill – here’s an awesome tire knowing no fear. Whistle into town, come back home across the fields Steve McQueen style. Do some hooligan racing among friends on the neighborhood dirt track. Or what about that camping trip to that place where the road ends you’ve been postponing all those years? The Bates Baja tires can handle it.
Here’s a family of scrambler tires right on the tracks of the legendary Goodyear Grasshopper, capable of doing it all: ample grip on the road with a tread pattern that will get you out of the deepest ruts off the road.
The Bates tires Baja are the product of Bates’ long experience on diverse gravel, dirt and mud pistas, highways and Autobahns on several continents. For continuous quality control we use them on our daily riders.
We’re having these low profile section tires produced to the highest technical standards for newer Bikes. The available wheel sizes can be freely combined. Your next late model scrambler project should be awesome.
The tires are certified by German TÜV for speeds up to 190 kph, so you can legally scramblerize your 1200 Sportster or Softail that needs to be driven off or on the road.

A true Scrambler bike is not complete without one of these stone guards but it looks great on other scooters, too, which go for a "Six Days" outfit. Mounts in a minute with the bezel of Bates or similar headlamps.
