IRC SIREN COMP 20x1.90 Tyre

The tyre IRC Siren Comp is directly inspired by the high-end profile used by Elite riders on the world circuit. Developed by the renowned Japanese brand IRC, this model from the Comp range is designed to offer an excellent balance between grip, performance and durability, all at a particularly attractive price-to-quality ratio.

It takes on the intelligent tread pattern of the Pro version: an ultra-rolling centre section that eliminates friction during pedalling to maximise top speed, combined with lateral micro-knobs to secure cornering lines. Its reinforced structure with wire beads provides excellent impact resistance and outstanding longevity, making it the ideal companion for racking up laps during training or lining up at your first races.

What is the difference between the Siren Pro version and this Siren Comp version? The Pro version uses an ultra-lightweight folding bead carcass and a soft compound that maximises chemical grip for pure competition. The Siren Comp version uses wire beads and a slightly more robust compound. It is slightly heavier, but offers greater longevity and a much more affordable price, making it ideal for daily training.

Is this tyre suitable for riding on a wet or muddy track? The Siren Comp has a low-profile, speed-focused tread. Its grooves channel water on wet asphalt through corners, but it is not designed for very muddy tracks or loose terrain where deep knobs are required.

How should I set up my Siren Comp tyres on my BMX? You can fit it front and rear without any issue. For optimal handling, it is recommended to choose a wider section at the front (e.g. 20x1.75 or 20x1.90) to ensure precise and reassuring steering through corners, and a narrower section at the rear (e.g. 20x1.60) to favour reactivity when pedalling.
