That's not how Schwalbe markets them on their own site. If I had to guess, Amazon probably has a field for all bike-related merchandise where you have to indicate the "gender" of bikes they're usable on, even if it doesn't make sense.

I mean, it says “unisex”. So you get to do it once …

Especially if you don't watch your bits around the spokes.

Amazon just slaps unisex onto completely agender items sometimes. It's really annoying.

Baby Billy's Bicycle Bonkers

Schwalbe tires have all these different personas in how they are named. One of the best is the 'Thunder Burt'. 'Rocket Ron' is also funny. 'Johnny Watts' is meant for e-bikes. 'Racing Ralph' is funnier than intended.

Looking thru them, 'Tacky Chan' seems new.

Not sure what 'Hans Dampf' is about.

Pre-crisis Tacky Chan with 4,000 years of Chinese cycling no diffs the self taught Billy Bonkers

The US is becoming so woke their bicycle tires have pronouns.

If there are girls' bikes then there needs to be girl bike tyres
