Product Details

Bontrager Betasso RSL GX TLR Gravel Tyre Tan

The Bontrager Betasso RSL GX TLR Gravel Tyre Tan is built for riders who want serious grip, durability and confidence when gravel riding gets rough, loose and unpredictable. Developed around the demanding terrain associated with Colorado’s Betasso area, the Betasso RSL GX uses an aggressive gravel tread pattern designed for mixed and loose surfaces where traction matters.

With its RSL GX 60 TPI casing, Gravel Dual-Compound rubber, bead-to-bead and sub-tread puncture protection, folding construction and Tubeless Ready technology, the Betasso RSL GX is designed for gravel riders who want a tyre capable of handling more than smooth hardpack roads.

The Black/Tan colourway adds a distinctive skinwall-style appearance, giving your gravel bike a classic look while retaining the modern construction and performance expected from a current gravel tyre.

Aggressive Gravel Tread

The Betasso RSL GX is designed around an aggressive tread pattern that prioritises grip and durability on mixed and loose gravel.

Unlike a semi-slick gravel tyre that focuses heavily on low rolling resistance, the Betasso uses more pronounced knobs to provide additional bite when the surface becomes loose. This makes it particularly useful for gravel routes that include rough tracks, loose corners, rocky sections and changing surfaces.

The tread is designed to provide a balance between forward speed and control, making the Betasso suitable for riders who don’t want to compromise traction when their gravel route becomes more demanding.

Gravel Dual-Compound

The Betasso RSL GX features Gravel Dual-Compound rubber.

The centre of the tyre uses a firmer compound designed to help maintain straight-line speed, while the shoulder area uses medium-density rubber and tread knobs designed to provide additional grip when cornering.

This combination gives the tyre a useful balance between rolling efficiency and cornering confidence.

On faster sections, the firmer centre helps the tyre maintain momentum. When you lean the bike into a loose corner, the shoulder tread provides additional contact with the surface.

RSL GX Construction

A major feature of the Betasso is its RSL GX construction.

The tyre uses a 60 TPI casing combined with protection that extends bead-to-bead and underneath the tread. This construction is designed to provide additional resistance against punctures and trail damage without moving away from the characteristics expected from a gravel tyre.

For gravel riders who regularly encounter sharp stones, rough tracks and debris, this additional protection can be particularly valuable.

Tubeless Ready

The Bontrager Betasso RSL GX is Tubeless Ready (TLR).

A tubeless setup allows riders to use compatible tubeless rims, valves and sealant instead of a traditional inner tube. This can be particularly useful for gravel riding, where running an appropriate tyre pressure can improve traction and comfort over rough surfaces.

Bontrager also recommends using its complete tubeless system with compatible wheels, tyres, sealant, valves and rim strips for a properly matched setup.

Always ensure that your rim and tyre combination is compatible and follow the manufacturer’s installation and pressure recommendations.

60 TPI Casing

The 60 TPI casing provides a practical balance between durability and ride characteristics.

The Betasso isn’t designed as an ultra-light race-only gravel tyre. Instead, its construction focuses on providing the durability and protection required for more demanding gravel riding.

The combination of the 60 TPI casing and RSL GX protection makes it well suited to riders who regularly venture away from smooth gravel roads and onto rougher terrain.

Tan Sidewall Finish

The Tan sidewall gives the Betasso RSL GX a distinctive appearance.

The black tread combined with the tan sidewall creates a classic gravel-bike look that works particularly well with modern adventure and gravel builds. It is a great option for riders who want their bike to stand out without sacrificing a performance-focused tyre construction.

The Black/Tan version is available across multiple 700C sizes.

Available Sizes

The Betasso RSL GX TLR is available in several 700C widths, including:

  • 700C x 42 mm
  • 700C x 45 mm
  • 700C x 50 mm

The 700C x 45 mm version has an ETRTO specification of 45-622, while the 42 mm and 50 mm versions are listed as 42-622 and 50-622 respectively.

The wider options provide riders with more tyre volume for rougher gravel, provided the frame and fork have sufficient clearance.

Built for Mixed and Loose Gravel

The Betasso RSL GX is particularly suited to riders who regularly encounter changing terrain.

It can be used for:

  • Gravel racing
  • Adventure gravel
  • Rough gravel roads
  • Loose surfaces
  • Rocky gravel
  • Mixed-terrain riding
  • Forest roads
  • Off-road cycling
  • Long-distance gravel riding
  • Training and recreational gravel

Its aggressive tread makes it especially appropriate when grip and durability are more important than having the absolute fastest tyre on smooth hardpack.

Folding Bead

The Betasso RSL GX uses a folding bead, which helps keep the tyre practical to transport and install.

The folding construction also contributes to the tyre’s overall design as a modern gravel tyre, making it suitable for riders who travel with their bikes, attend gravel events or carry spare tyres during longer adventures.
