Road bike tires
Road bike tires are designed to provide optimal performance on paved roads.
Here are some key features:
- Performance and Comfort: They offer an excellent compromise between simplicity and performance. Their choice has a direct impact on the performance and comfort of your bike
- Rolling Resistance: They have low rolling resistance with smooth profile tires. These offer the best performance on asphalt, allowing you to go faster with less effort
- Durability: They are designed to withstand wear and tear over long distances
- Puncture Resistance: They offer superior protection against punctures
- Tread: The tread that covers the carcass of a road tire is made up of a mixture of rubber and other chemical ingredients (such as silica) which influence density, rolling resistance, grip, wear and the appearance
These features make road bike tires an ideal choice for cyclists looking for a combination of comfort, safety and performance on their long bike rides. They are available in a range of brands, such as Continental, Michelin, Schwalbe, Hutchinson, Kenda, etc.
