Bigger is Faster
So what’s the secret behind her smooth, trouble-free ride? It starts with what we believe is the best gravel tire for Unbound: the WTB Resolute 50 SG2. Designed for versatility across a wide range of conditions, the Resolute’s consistent knob spacing and mud-shedding tread make it ideal for long races where the terrain changes as fast as the weather.

Resolute 50 had NO issues
The 50mm casing offers just the right amount of volume to absorb chatter while keeping rolling resistance low—a perfect balance for a course that demands both endurance and speed. Add to that our SG2 puncture protection, and you’ve got a tire that doesn’t flinch at flint.

Whitney’s ride is a reminder: when you’re lining up for the most iconic gravel race in the world, your tires should be the one thing you don’t have to think about. And that’s exactly what the Resolute delivers.
