tyres

My son has picked up a scruffy Raleigh Olympus for an inexpensive (hopefully) resto project. It is generally good, but without tyres fitted and he is struggling to size them. We are getting roundly confused with ISO diameters and by visual comparison concluded that 650B road tyres (584mm ISO)...

Hi cc Looking for some 700c tyres with orange coloured sidewall pref. 25mm width and intermediate weight (250g - 300g) not cheap and heavy but not super expensive either.

Hi all, As per the title I have 2 X Tubeless Giant Gavia AC1 tyres for sale. They are 700x 25c. Seem to get a good write up in reviews. These tyres are removed from my new bike as I have replaced with an old set of summer tyres I had lying around. They have not seen any tarmac and therefore...

Schwalbe Airless At €84 per tyre, I’m not sure I would be looking at this, even if it were available in the UK, which it currently is not. It does look like an improvement over Tannus, which to be fair I have no personal experience. The Schwalbe looks to be using a similar tyre to standard, so...

Getting a new bike delivered next week, not ridden in over a year! Thinking of future upgrades and id like to go tubeless but dont really know where to start! Whats a good tire for off rd single track, and look nice! on a budget? Anything else i need? The bike is the vitus nucleus 27 Thanks

As they appear to have been discontinued... :( Recommendations, please! I don't need any right now, and there are still loads to be had. But I've nowhere to stash such things, so need ideas for the future. Some good deals around at the minute, too, irritatingly...

New inner tube from Schwalbe that you can't repair. Step forward or back? https://road.cc/content/review/schwalbe-aerothan-inner-tube-277797

Hi all any recommendations for road tyres in the wet? Currently using Continental Gatorskin 28mm. I do a mix of general fitness riding and commuting. I recently came off bike - taking roundabout in wet conditions. Probably just going too fast but not sure if there are better tyres for wet...

Potentially silly question - apologies if so. My touring bike has Specialised Nimbus Armadillos. I got them in 2008. I must have put 2000 miles on them at least in the following two years but prob a max 1000 in the remaining years as I cycled less and got various other bicycles to add to the...

I run a gravel bike on the road for winter as I can fit mudguards, which I can't on my posh bike. 2 sets of wheels so can switch between road and off road tyres easily. I've been running 28mm slicks on it on the road, for a bit more comfort than 25mm. These need replacing soon and I was...

Hi I am looking for an equipped hybrid but due to lower back issues I need to supress vibrations from the road and have balloon tyres like Big Apple. Looking for something like Bergamont Vitess but ... at half the cost. Budget up to £550. Any ideas?

Another what tyre thread, I know, I know. I'm currently using some Schwalbe Tyrago's (which came fitted to the bike) in a 700x35c size which are coming to the end of their useful life. I've been really happy with them but they seem to be discontinued and no longer available. In the past, on...

Clearing out some stuff so have for sale... Shimano 10 speed 11-32 cassette, new in box £20 + post SOLD Shimano 8 speed 13-26 cassette & chain, both new in box £25 + post Pair of WTB Exposure 700X30c Tubeless tyres, used for about 80 miles or so, £25 + post 36H Front wheel, DRC ST19 Rim with...

Decided I need to do something with this bike. It's been in various cellars and sheds for 30 years, when I bought it new but hardly rode it. I have other bikes now but I'd like to recommission it. It needs new tyres but I'm not sure of the modern size. The wheel diameter seems to be 63cm and...

Hi, My new set of wheels came with a pair of Bontranger R3 slick 700x23 tyres. They are barely worn, plenty of depth left on them. They are tubeless ready so can be run with tubes too. Each tyre new would be around £30 so £60 for the pair so how does £25 plus £5 posted for the pair sound? I...

I want to replace my front wheel A couple of questions: 1. The one I’ve got my eye on comes with a GP4000s ii 23c, my current tyres are GP4000s ii 28c. If I get this wheel and just use it as is, so 23 on the front 28 on the back, would there be any issues with that?* 2. I may in the future...

One for the frame builder's perhaps. I have a Omega steel frame that I purchased second hand. It was originally designed for 23c tyres but the previous owner fitted a carbon front derailleur clamp to get 25c tyres on. I have switched tyres and they offer very near zero clearance on the seat...

I am looking to buy new road bike tyres since my current ones don't seem to be any good as I have frequent punctures despite only cycling on main road and not cycling off road or in places which you would expect a puncture. The cost doesn't matter too much I just want reliable tyres as the cost...

Hi there, So quite a while ago (back in August!) I was posting about buying myself a Hybrid bike. I ended up with the Carrera Subway 1 and since the weather turned in October I've been struggling with some of the local trails due to mud. Otherwise the bike has taken on everything I've thrown at...

I have a set of Continental GP 5000's in 28mm and also a set of Continental Grand Prix 4 Season in 25mm. Which tyres do you think would be best for winter riding

Which tyre do you prefer and why? Which one would you recommend personally?

Can anyone recommend a good set of winter tyres. Want to upgrade so that I try to keep the punctures down

Almost ready for new tyres on the Genesis Day One. Mostly road but also canal paths, dirt tracks. 700x35 Continental Sport contact II on at moment. They where originals with bike and replaced like for like when worn out. This time may try something different. Recommendations please :rolleyes:

Just wanted to put a review up, I just changed from 28c to 32c gp5000 tyres. I have only done to short trips on them so far but seem really positive. I took about 15psi out of what I was running the 28s at but may try losing another 5psi and see how that goes. The ride seems a lot smoother and...

I've just got back from my first curtailed (snapped gear cable) MTB ride for a while. I'm in Northwest England with lots of moorland tracks paths. It seems the landscape has got a bit soft and squishy in the time i've been away and my 2× Rocket Rob Tyres which are increasingly worn...

Need to replace two front tyres on my Ford Fiesta, looking at Yokohama BluEarth as they are on offer. Any thoughts or expriences appreciated (replacing a set of continental premium contact2).

Selling some bits I won't be using anytime soon. Pair of VIttoria Corsa g Isotech tyres, 28mm less than 300 miles, no cuts whatsoever but some staining mainly where the bead fits under the rim £35 pair posted RItchey 90mm WCS 220 stem, very good condition slight mark underneath from a cable...

194CE9CF-22A4-4DC5-BA22-851ACCB3D3EF by NEIL MCCARTHY, on Flickr Also, can someone advise on my seat position? I get shoulder burn on this bike as it's set up but have been told that the saddle should be roughly the same height as the bars (which it seems to be - see pics) and that the saddle...

Hey guys can anyone tell me if it's possible/ok to fit 35-42c tube in 30/32c Tyre? And what are the negatives?

Tubes I want to buy are either 28-35 or 35-45. Im guessing its the smaller one. Is that right?
