Road Bike Tyres
Road bike tyres are specifically designed for smooth pavement, providing minimal rolling resistance and optimal speed. They are typically narrower than other types of bike tyres, ranging from 23mm to 32mm in width, which helps reduce drag. The tread pattern is often slick or lightly textured to enhance grip on dry surfaces.
These tyres are made from lightweight materials, such as rubber and kevlar, to improve performance and durability. Proper inflation is crucial, as under-inflated tyres can lead to increased resistance and potential damage. Regular maintenance, including checking for wear and tear, ensures a safe and efficient ride.
