OEM Strike Shadow Knobby Tires | 12”, 14” & 17” Front & Rear Options
Set up your Strike Shadow for dirt, gravel, and changing trail conditions with knobby tire options from Strike Cycles. Choose from 14” or 17” front tires and 12” or 14” rear tires, each designed for the different demands at its end of the bike. The front options focus on steering precision, cornering grip, and braking control, while the rear options put traction where your electric motor delivers its power.
Aggressive tread helps the tires find grip in loose terrain, while reinforced rubber construction and substantial sidewalls support the weight and performance demands of electric mini motos and e-moto builds. Matching the tire to its intended wheel position matters: front-end tracking and rear-wheel drive traction call for different tread priorities.
Tire Options
14” Front Tire
Built for precise steering and dependable front-end traction, the 14” front tire uses aggressive knobs to bite into dirt and loose ground while maintaining stability across mixed surfaces. Reinforced construction and thick sidewalls suit the added weight and torque demands of electric mini motos.
