Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or cruising local single track, the right tyres can transform your ride. Nutrak’s range of Vee-branded tyres brings capable performance and confidence-inspiring grip to mountain bikers — without a premium price tag. From aggressive tracks to versatile trail tyres, Nutrak Vee tyres are designed with rider needs in mind, using thoughtful compounds and tread patterns for reliable performance in real-world conditions.

What Makes Nutrak Vee Tyres Great?
The Nutrak Vee tyres line-up includes options like Nutrak Attack HPL Full 40 Compound GXE Core 2.50, Nutrak Attack HPL E CTRL Compound Override Core 2.50, and Nutrak Snap WCE Compound Core 2.60 — all tailored for trail and off-road riding. Each model blends tread design and rubber compound to balance grip, rolling speed, stability, and durability.
Rubber Compounds: Grip and Durability
Nutrak Vee tyres use carefully selected rubber compounds that affect how the tyre interacts with the trail:
- Grippy Full-40 Compound — Many of the trail-oriented tyres use a full-40 compound: a softer, tacky rubber that excels in grip, especially in loamy or loose terrain. Softer compounds deform more to the trail surface, helping hooks into roots and rocks for extra traction. This comes with a slight trade-off in rolling resistance compared with harder rubbers, but is ideal when traction is key.
- E-CTRL Compound — Some Vee models use an E-CTRL compound designed to provide even greater control and confidence on technical terrain. This rubber achieves a balance between bite and predictable behaviour, helping riders feel secure in corners and on descents without sacrificing too much longevity.
Combining compound and casing technology (like Nutrak’s GXE and Override cores) enhances the tyre’s strength and responsiveness — helping them withstand hard riding while offering consistent performance.

Tread Patterns: Designed for Conditions
Nutrak Vee tyres feature thoughtful tread block designs that dictate how they handle specific surfaces:
- Aggressive Knobs — Deep, widely spaced knobs on tyres like the Attack series dig into soft soil and loose trails, offering confidence when braking, carving corners, or powering up climbs. Their spacing helps shed mud, maintaining grip even in messy trail conditions.
- Intermediate Blocks — Models such as Snap variants balance grip with rolling efficiency, offering medium-height centre knobs for reduced drag and larger shoulder knobs for cornering support. This makes them versatile for mixed terrain — from hard pack to looser sections.
- Reinforced Cores — Nutrak tyres incorporate reinforced cores under the tread that help stabilise knobs and reduce flex under load, improving corner tracking and overall tyre lifespan. This is especially useful when hitting rough trails or technical features at speed.
Choosing the Right Nutrak Vee Tyre for You
When selecting a Nutrak Vee tyre:
- Traction seekers — Choose tyres with softer compounds and aggressive tread patterns if you’re riding loose trails, mud, or technical descents.
- Trail versatility — Tyres with balanced tread patterns and moderate compounds deliver everyday usability — good for mixed terrain and general riding.
- Robust riding — If durability is a priority, tyres with reinforced cores and controlled rubber blends can help resist cuts and maintain shape over time.
Nutrak Vee tyres prove that you don’t need a high-end price tag to get dependable mountain bike rubber. With thoughtful compound choices and purposeful tread patterns, they offer performance that suits both new riders and seasoned cyclists looking for value without compromise.
