Introduced in 2013, the Vigilante 2.3 has remained synonymous with aggressive trail and enduro riding. Prominent knobs dig into any terrain, wet or dry, and provide support at high speeds. Wide knob spacing allows for tread deflating when biting into loose, chunky trails. The Vigilante grips lean angles like no other and is the tire of choice for trail and enduro riders who need a tire that won't let them down when it matters most. Looking for a favorite aggressive tire with a wider width and updated design? Check out the Vigilante 2.5/2.6/2.8.

Optimal rim width inside: 25-35 mm

Application: Enduro, Trail
Surface: Loose, Dirty, Rocky, Wet

FUNCTIONS

- Square lugs strike wet or dry terrain for unwavering traction, while their consistent spacing provides predictable stability and confidence at high speeds.

- Tall side knobs are supported by a raised base that prevents them from flexing under the unabashedly powerful forces of cornering. The side knobs feature perpendicular cuts that enhance traction when braking or cornering.

Everything about the Vigilante is designed to improve cornering traction as a front tire. Aggressive outer knobs dig into corners, while directional sipes grapple with rocks and roots in both wet and dry conditions. We recommend pairing the Vigilante 2.3 with the Trail Boss 2.25 in the rear.

- TCS (Tubeless Compatible System) is WTB's standardized tubeless system. These tires feature a TCS tubeless casing that virtually eliminates punctures and allows for lower tire pressures for improved traction and comfort compared to a traditional tubed tire.

TCS Light Cassing
One layer of flexible casing adapts to the terrain to ensure maximum performance, exceptional reliability and low rotating mass.

DUAL DNA COMPOUND
Dual DNA is the perfect blend of performance, traction, and durability. The center tread has
a harder rubber compound that provides faster rolling and increased durability, while the sidewalls are made of a softer, slower-rebound rubber for improved control and grip.

Configuration: LIGHT FAST ROLLING

A harder, faster, and more efficient tread compound is used in the centerline of the tire. The sidewalls and lateral knobs are coated with a softer compound designed to be compliant yet trail-worthy.

SG2
TCS Light single-ply mountain tires are available with SG2 puncture protection. SG2 is a lightweight nylon ply that protects all areas of the tire with an additional level of puncture protection. SG2 bead-to-bead technology also improves sidewall stability and overall tire support without the added weight of a Tough (two-ply) casing. The flat nylon fibers in SG2 reduce the amount of rubber needed to fill the gaps between the fibers compared to traditional round-fiber protective plies. The increased fiber-to-rubber ratio increases puncture resistance while reducing weight and improving flexibility compared to our Tough casing. Independent laboratory testing has shown that Bead-to-bead SG2 provides 80% better sidewall protection than traditional single-ply tires without SG2.
