tyres

Vittoria Terreno Zero - tubeless ready - Graphene 2.0 - 38 x 700c Brand new gravel bike tyres, a pair fitted to wheels but have not been on the road - they were fitted to a new bike but I swapped them for a pair of Schwalbe Marathons being my preferred touring tyre. Current retail from several...

Hi Folks Clearing out some bits after a few upgrades! https://road.cc/content/review/246667-mavic-ksyrium-elite-ust-wheelset These came off of my good summer bike, tyres are nearly new with the centre casting mark still present, no punctures, are properly set up tubeless with sealant therein...

Just upgrading my Roubaix to 700c 32 from 28, Can i still use my Conti 700/28 tubes or do i have to replace with wider please

Am sure must have been asked before, but: is there anything you can put in cuts in tyres which will reliably fill a cut - and stay there? I don't mean small cuts so much - too much bother to fuss with those - I just check my tyres regularly and dig out any bits that may have lodged there. But...

Just about to hit the hay but I will leave a question. Having got the bottom bracket spinning beautifully on my recently acquired project 1930's Hercules Ladies bike, my thoughts turn to the tyres & tubes. The ones on the rims are like solidified lava and no detail is readable on them. I...

I have just returned from a holiday in Devon. A round trip of nearly 600 miles which I drove on motorways and A roads. There seemed to be loads of "failed" car tyres in the Hedges. The treaded section of tyres but without any sidewalls. I can't remember ever seeing these on the verge on past...

Am getting bit fed up of rear punctures recently, 3 in 3 months, the last one yesterday had me doing a tyre change in the grass on the side of an unlit B road with cars doing 60mph going past.....and I was late for afterschool pick up. The rear tyre is wearing so that may be a reason for...

What would be best for me for winter riding Continental Grand Prix 4 season in 28mm or Continental GP 5000 in 32mm

Hi all, after coming a cropper recently on my Big Ben Plus, i need something that is good for a commute, mix of canal towpath (often very muddy), tarmac, and also slippy wet leaves covered tarmac. This is basically what my average daily ride is. There area LOT of leaves as i often ride through a...

tightest tyres i have ever had, pulled out the daytona that i got from @DCLane earlier in the year , cleaned it up , its come up quite well, decided to fit new tubes, f3ck me, i have never until today pinched a tube when fitting the tyre, generic 26 x 13/8, got a sweat on and made up several...

I don't have one of the large volume pumps, but I do have two tubeless tyres that need changing on my off-road bike. Does it work to inflate them quickly with a Co2 cylinder, then wait a while while the tyre warms up again?

Been looking at some new tyres for a couple of my bikes and stumbled across Fincci branded tyre's and I have never heard of them . Any cycle chat members using them ? https://www.fincci.bike/shop/tyres/

Mildly terrifying yesterday. On a steep but straight and fast descent doing around 30mph if not more - it was raining so my visibility wasn't great however this was my regular route home I know this road really well. I hit either a pothole or a stone - fearing what could happen next I started...

Hi has anyone got or tried Smart Sam tyres your comments are appreciated

I've ordered these "Made in China" solid tyres for the Trainer/Rollers this winter. £8 each in Orange, no punctures! ;) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353188420533? I'll just need to get them on the wheels, which is apparently very difficult and will probably take until spring 2022.:laugh:

Bought wheels to sell the bike but buyer didn’t want them so stuck with them as both my bikes are brand new vision team 35 clincher wheelset Victoria corsa 25mm tyres 11-28 105 cassette £250 plus postage located Edinburgh

Hello friends - i am back for some advice. I have michellin pro 4 tyres fitted in 2019. Did a fair bit of cycling 2019 and 2020. This year i am facing frequent punctures. I am cycling 200 to 400 km per month. Is it time to get new tyres. I am bit sick of changing tubes every other month. What...

Hello everyone, I bought my first Hybrid bike about 1 year ago, after about 10+ years of not having a bike. I've been really enjoying owning and riding mainly on the road, here's the wheel and tyre size it came with: After some reading and watching YouTube videos, I'm beginning to...

I’m struggling to see the tyre size due to the walls which have all but crumbled away 😂 I think I can see 700 x 28 but not sure Can anyone confirm. Frame size is23.5”

I saw an advert today for Tannus airless tyres. Has anyone tried them?, what's the ride like?. Just thinking if they are a pretty good product it would be ideal for the back of my ebike. https://tannus.co.uk/

Hi Guys I think I have overthought myself into a mental block / stalemate. I need a replacement rim for my hybrid "commuter bike" front wheel. I current have the bog standard Alex Rims R450 on the front. It has had a hard life and needs replacing - The worn out hub is forcing a rebuild so it...

So I finally got the tyre on the rim although it was tight now I cannot get the tyre to fit on the edge of the rim and when I blow up the Inner tube that has presta valves It just looses air. Has anyone got any tips how to get the edge of the tyre out of the centre of the wheel onto the edge of...

Hi folks I ordered a tyre size 215/50R17 91W. I have noticed that what has been fitted is 215/50R17 95W. Am I right to assume that since 95W is higher than 91W it is better so there is nothing to worry about? Thanks for any input.

So what are they like to remove and refit in general (I know it varies with tyre to tyre), piece of cake or a ball ache?

I've mentioned this before but it's now definitely time to get some new tyres for my tourer. I currently have Specialized Nimbus Armadillos and I haven't had a puncture in 12 years and thousands of miles. Those are the kind of stats I'm looking to replicate. Do I get more of the same or is there...

I have been trying to fit a pair of Schwabe Active tires to a pair of 27 x 1 1/4 wheels that I have just had rebuilt and they are without doubt the tightest fit I have ever encountered. It took me almost a full hour to fit the first one and in doing so, I managed to nip the tube and had to...

What size of tyres do you use on your commute and how is the comfort

Hi there At the moment, I have Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Slick tyres on my bike, however I think they need changed. I've been buying tyres whenever they are on sale and have a choice to change these tyres to the following: Continental Ultrasport, Schwalbe Durano or Continental Grandsport Race...

I saw a bike on Gumtree that had been fitted with Schwalbe 590mm tyres. The equivalent imperial size is 1 1/2" yet these have 1 3/8 on the sidewall. An established company such as Schwalbe should know the correct imperial size. Is it possible that these tyres are counterfeit copies?

On my commute, I cover a mix of surfaces ranging from sealed A road to gravel farm track. I've mostly been doing the commute on a hard tail MTB with 27.5 x 2.10 knobbly tyres. They are great on all surfaces apart from on loose gravel bends where they tend to slip sideways a bit. For the last...
