Tires for road and trekking bicycles

Road and trekking
In this category you will find road tires, tires for trekking bikes, gravel and tubulars. Different types of tires are designed to excel in specific environments and driving conditions. Whether you're a road cyclist looking for speed and efficiency, an adventurous gravel rider, or a trekking enthusiast going on long journeys, there's a tire to suit every need.
  • Road tires: Designed for smooth, reinforced surfaces, offer low rolling resistance and exceptional grip on asphalt. Thanks to narrow profiles and minimal treads, road tires provide maximum efficiency, allowing you to maintain higher speeds and achieve optimal performance on the road. Whether you're a competitive racer or a recreational rider, road tires provide the speed, response and cornering ability you need to tackle the asphalt.
  • Gravel tires: Perfect choice for those looking for adventure off the road. Designed for mixed surfaces including gravel roads, dirt roads and even rough single track, these tires strike a balance between durability, traction, and comfort. Thanks to wider profiles, aggressive patterns and increased puncture resistance, gravel tires provide stability, grip, and confidence in unpredictable terrain. These tires will make it possible to push the boundaries of riding experiences.
  • Trekking tires: Designed for long-distance journeys. Thanks to wider profiles and universal patterns, these tires provide comfort, durability, and traction on various surfaces. Trekking tires offer a balance between efficiency on the road and grip on gravel or muddy roads. In addition, many trekking tires are equipped with puncture protection layers that increase reliability during longer rides.

What are the specifics of road, gravel, trekking tires and tubulars?

  • Road tires:
    • TPI (threads per inch): TPI indicates the number of threads per inch in the tire casing. Tires with a higher TPI are usually more flexible and provide a smoother ride.
    • Weight: The weight of road tires varies, with lighter variants offering better acceleration and climbing performance. However, tires can be lighter at the expense of durability and puncture resistance.
    • Rolling: Look for tires with low rolling resistance, as they allow you to maintain higher speeds and save energy.
    • Sidewall construction: Some road tires have a reinforced sidewall that increases durability and resistance to cutting and abrasion.
    Tubulars:
    • Compatibility: Tubulars require specific rims designed for their installation. Before choosing this option, make sure that the rims are compatible with the wheels.
    • Bonding: They must be stuck to the rim. Consider the additional effort and maintenance that this type of tire requires.
    Trekking jackets:
    • Puncture protection: Trekking tires often come with additional layers of puncture protection, such as Kevlar fibres, to reduce the risk of punctures.
    • Reflective strips: Some trekking tires have reflective strips on the sidewalls to increase visibility and safety in low light conditions.
    • Load capacity: If you plan to carry a heavy load on your trekking bike, consider tires with a higher load capacity to ensure stability and durability.
    Tires for gravel:
    • Tubeless use: Tubeless gravel tires allow lower pressure to be used for better traction and comfort. They typically have a reinforced casing that resists cutting and damage to the sidewall.
    • Tire width: Consider the maximum tire width that your bike's frame and fork can accommodate. Wider tires provide more stability and traction in open terrain.

Remember to balance the desired performance characteristics with your specific needs. Consider factors such as durability, puncture resistance, weight, grip, and the type of terrain you plan to ride. Experimenting with different tire options will help you find the perfect combination for your driving style and preferences.
