Handmade Performance: EuroCycling AU Brings Challenge Tyres & Tubes to Australia

There’s handmade, and there’s Challenge. Since 2003, this legendary brand has carried forward the heritage of iconic tyre maker Clément, building every tyre by hand—layer by layer, tread by tread—using premium natural rubber and ultra‑supple casings. EuroCycling AU is proud to deliver the full range of Challenge road, gravel, cyclocross, and track tyres, plus latex tubes and essentials, ready for Australian roads, trails, and racing.

Why Handmade Changes Everything

Most tyres are mass‑produced with heat and pressure. Challenge does it differently:
  • Step‑by‑step hand assembly: Natural glues and latex bond materials without harsh vulcanisation, preserving suppleness and ride quality.
  • Ultra‑high TPI casings: SuperPoly, cotton, and silk options deliver a ride that flows over bumps, with lower rolling resistance and better grip.
  • PPS puncture protection: Tough woven layers under the tread boost reliability without killing comfort.
  • Natural rubber compounds: Superior grip and compliance compared to synthetic alternatives.
  • Tubular, clincher & TLR: All three formats, built to the same exacting standards.
