Abstract
A tire with two beads () and a radial carcass reinforcement () anchored in each bead by an upturn () which forms at least one loop around a circumferential bead reinforcement (), said upturn—when viewed in meridian section—beginning at a point of origin (A) that corresponds to the point of intersection between the carcass reinforcement and a line (D) perpendicular to the tire's rotation axis and passing through the radially innermost point (A) of the circumferential bead reinforcement (). A feature of the tire is that when viewed in meridian section, the end (F) of the upturn () is located between said upturn () of the carcass reinforcement and the circumferential bead reinforcement ().
