FAQs

What is the recommended tire pressure?

The recommended PSI is printed on the tire sidewall. Generally, it is between 80-123 PSI.

Are these tires suitable for tubeless setups?

No, these tires are not designed for tubeless setups.

How often should I replace my tires?

Tire lifespan depends on usage and road conditions. Inspect your tires regularly and replace them when the tread is worn or if there are any cuts or damage.

Can I use these tires on an E-bike?

Yes, these tires are E-bike rated up to 25 kph.

What is the difference between wire and folding bead tires?

Wire bead tires use a steel wire to hold the tire onto the rim and are generally more affordable and heavier. Folding bead tires use a more flexible material, making them lighter and easier to transport.

What size tire should I choose?

The correct size depends on your bike and riding preferences. The most common sizes are 700x23c, 700x25c, 700x28c, and 700x32c. Refer to your bike's specifications or consult a bike shop for assistance.

How do I store the tires when not in use?

Store tires in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Tire keeps losing air.

Check for punctures. Inspect the tire and tube for any damage. Replace the tube if necessary.

Difficulty installing the tire.

Make sure the tire bead is seated correctly. Use tire levers carefully if needed, and ensure the tube is not pinched.

Check tire pressure and inflate to the recommended PSI. Ensure that the tire isn't rubbing against the frame or brakes.
