All Rights Reserved Company No. 05107467 | VAT No: 593 733 507 When looking to buy new bicycle tyres, you will need to know the size of the wheel, with mountain bikes generally requiring 27.5” bike tyres or the slightly larger 29” tyre. Road bikes on the other hand require 700c bike tyres, such as the Continental Grand Prix or Gatorskin. Thankfully, this offering from Maxxis, along with those from Terravail, brings that dream to a more reasonable price point. I’m very happy that the industry finally heard me and my friends ranting about the need for a 27.5+ tire with tan sidewalls.

Wherever you plan on riding, finding the correct type of bike tyre is essential to the experience. Even if you plan on taking on multiple terrains, we have bicycle tyres that can stand up to the test of any surface.

Before we get to how they ride, let’s just take a moment to appreciate those beautiful sidewalls. I hadn’t gotten a single compliment on my bike before mounting these tires, but when I debuted my new setup on opening weekend in Downieville, I was getting stopped by all sorts of weekend warriors commenting on my sweet tan sidewalls. I can’t quite seem to put my finger on why the small infusion of beige on the sidewall sets off a bike’s build, but it does. It could be the nostalgia, or maybe it’s the color juxtaposition. Whatever it is, they don’t think it be like it is but it do. In 2018, WTB added the 2.8” option to the Vigilante family, offering a wider format to the same revised tread pattern and rubber compounds used in the entire lineup. Both the 29” and 27.5 x 2.8” Vigilante use WTB’s TriTec Compound, which simply refers to three distinct rubber densities used throughout the tread. Softer compounds are used on the surface of the tread for grip, hard compounds throughout the base of the tread provide support, and a medium compound down the centerline of the tire provides a mix of rolling speed and grip. Keep on Rolling, the Michelin E-Wild 27.5" is an electric mountain bike tyre that is designed to take you further. With both front and rear specific tyres designed specifically for e bikes the E-Wild tyres are perfect for power assisted mountain biking in challenging conditions. The width of tyre you can use on your bike depends in part on your wheels – each wheel is designed to accept tyres up to a maximum width. Wider tyres are preferred by a lot of riders because they offer more traction and make it easier to roll over obstacles. That said, as your tyres get wider, you’ll add rolling resistance to your bike and make it harder to accelerate. In general, trail and downhill mountain bikes use tyres between 2.25-2.5 inches. Cross country bikes typically use narrower tyres – 1.9-2.25 inches – to allow them to move faster and climb hills more efficiently. Tyre Treads

The bumps and knobs on the outside of your tyres – known as lugs – play a huge role in determining how much grip your wheels will get on different types of terrain. Side lugs on the edges of your tyres are ideal for cornering. When you angle the bike to take a sharp turn, side lugs will make sure you still have enough traction to prevent sliding out.Finance is subject to application, financial circumstances and borrowing history.

Widely spaced lugs are perfect for sand and mud. The channels between the lugs allow material to move freely rather than force your tyre to slip. Tubeless tyres don’t have a tube – the tyre seals against your wheel’s rim for an airtight fit. The advantages to tubeless tyres are that they don’t flat as frequently and allow you to ride at lower tyre pressures, which improve traction. However, flats on a tubeless tyre can be very difficult to fix on the trail.
