The Tire: Schwalbe Big Betty – Grip That Lasts
The Schwalbe Big Betty isn’t just a tire – it’s a statement. Built for enduro and downhill, it delivers unbeatable braking traction and cornering grip without killing your flow.
The aggressive side knobs bite into berms and loose surfaces, while the open tread pattern sheds mud and debris quickly. Paired with the Santa Cruz Heckler, it offers a planted, predictable ride – whether you’re cruising for fun or charging full speed.
The Trysil Bike Arena – Norway’s Flow Paradise
Trysil Bike Arena is Norway’s largest MTB playground – and a true all-rounder. With over 100 km of trails, it caters to everyone, from families on leisure rides to technical enduro and downhill shredders.
The FlowStar, our featured trail, is a 5.1 km blue masterpiece: wide turns, smooth jumps, and wooden bridges, perfect for warming up, riding all day, or just clearing your head.
Along the way, several Trail Hubs let you switch to harder lines – like Timbertown or Downtown (red trails) – or head to the jump playground Jack Hammer.
Why This Combo Rocks
- Santa Cruz Heckler: All-mountain eMTB with plush suspension and 85 Nm torque.
- Schwalbe Big Betty: Grip monster with stable sidewalls, perfect for hard braking and high-speed turns.
- FlowStar Trail: Welcomes beginners, challenges pros.
Together, they create a setup that turns every descent into a highlight – exactly what we captured in this video.
Conclusion:
Trysil Bike Arena is a must-ride destination for anyone who loves flow, nature, and perfectly maintained trails. And if you’re searching for a tire that won’t let you down in the toughest terrain, the Schwalbe Big Betty deserves a spot on your bike.
