This DOT approved tire is a playful all-terrain powerhouse packed in a small package. Designed to let riders be as comfortable on pavement as dirt, the Mobber is an all-access pass to all environments.
“Shinko took the tried and tested 504/505 off-road tires and redesigned them specifically to meet the needs of the small-bore bike market,” Shinko Brand Manager Kyle Isaacs explained. “The all-new Shinko Mobber tires are true off-road performers giving riders the DOT requirements they need while on the streets. Adventure riding and off-road mobbing on small-bore bikes…. that’s what the Shinko Mobber was built for.”
