RiBMo is an acronym: you'll 'Ride Bicycle MOre' because you won't get punctures. It's a super-tough tyre, only one tier below the very toughest on the market.
The thick rubber tread is complemented by a casing reinforced bead-to-bead with Protex, an 800-denier cord woven with vinyl thread, and there's a sub-tread breaker layer.
On the road it feels wooden and didn't do well in our roll-down tests; if we had RiBMos on our road bikes, we'd RiBLess. It's a tight fit on the rim, too.
