FAQs
What is K-Guard protection?
K-Guard is a puncture protection system that uses a layer of natural rubber reinforced with Kevlar fibers to protect the tyre from punctures.
What is TwinSkin?
TwinSkin is an additional rubber coating on the sidewalls of the tyre to protect against cuts.
What is SBC compound?
SBC stands for Schwalbe Basic Compound. It's a versatile rubber compound suitable for a variety of applications.
What is the recommended tyre pressure?
The recommended tyre pressure is indicated on the sidewall of the tyre. Always check and maintain the correct pressure for optimal performance.
How do I clean the tyres?
Clean the tyres with soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could damage the rubber.
How often should I check the tyres for damage?
Inspect the tyres before each ride and regularly for cuts, embedded objects, and wear.
Are these tyres suitable for mountain biking?
While the tyres can handle light off-road use, they are not designed for extreme mountain biking. They are best suited for mixed-use, including city and light trail riding.
Troubleshooting
Tyre loses air pressure.
Check the tyre for punctures. Inspect the valve for leaks. If a puncture is found, repair or replace the tyre.
Tyre is difficult to mount.
Ensure the tyre size matches the rim. Use tyre levers carefully to avoid damaging the tyre or rim.
Poor rolling performance.
Check the tyre pressure and inflate to the recommended level. Ensure the brakes are not rubbing against the tyre.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Installation: Ensure the tyre size (24 x 1.75) matches your rim size. Use tyre levers if necessary to mount the tyre onto the rim.
- Inflation: Inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure indicated on the tyre sidewall. Use a reliable pump with a pressure gauge.
- Compatibility: These tyres are compatible with standard 24-inch rims that accept a 1.75-inch tyre width. Check your rim for compatibility.
- Care: Regularly check the tyre for cuts, embedded objects, and wear. Clean the tyres with soap and water as needed. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Store the tyres in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the tyre for wear and tear. Replace the tyre if the tread is worn down or if there are any significant cuts or damage to the sidewalls.
