Bicycle tyres and tubes, the domestic range built in Tamba, Hyogo

Started in 1952 as National Tire, the Matsushita group's bicycle tyre maker, and left Panasonic in 2015 when the shares were sold to an investment firm. Its domestic tyres are still built by hand in Tamba; the GravelKing line made it a gravel name abroad.
