• Tenaya

2 types offered at COLLÉ:

XS GRIP 2 - A high-friction compound known for its exceptional softness and sensitivity. It is the industry standard for steep, technical terrain where maximum surface contact and 'stickiness' on volumes or overhangs are required.

XS EDGE - A stiffer, supportive rubber engineered for maximum edging power. It resists deformation under load, allowing you to stand confidently on tiny features without the rubber rolling or collapsing.
