bike tires are still being produced in Japan
Panaracer bicycle tires were not the first product produced by this company. They once manufactured commercial and consumer rubber products of many different types. However, in 1978 the company sharpened its focus and began to produce some of the finest bicycle tires on the market. For over 2 decades tires have been their only product and they have produced tires with single-minded devotion. A few of their earlier models were so ground-breaking and popular that they are still in production and use today.
Panaracer bike tires are still being produced in Japan, its native country. This manufacturer believes that domestic production allows the Panaracer tire to maintain a higher level of quality control. No less than seven full-time research and development engineers are employed to bring the most up-to-date compounds and technology to the product line. This commitment to quality is evident in their cutting-edge designs like the Panaracer XC models.
