Which tyre width should I choose for my mountain bike?

The choice of tyre width for a mountain bike is based on both the wheel size and the individual preference of the cyclist. In general, recommended tyre widths vary as follows: For a 26-inch rim, a bike tyre with a width between 1.9 and 2.5 inches is common, for 27.5-inch wheels, widths between 2.1 and 2.8 inches are common, and for 29-inch wheels, tyre widths between 2.1 and 2.5 inches are recommended. It is crucial to choose tyres that are suitable for the terrain you cycle on and that match your personal preferences.

Different types of tyre profiles in mountain bike tyres

There are various types of tyre profiles available for mountain bikes. All-round mountain bike tyres have studs on the tread that are close together, resulting in low weight and rolling resistance. These tyres are ideal for non-race-oriented mountain bikers. There are also tyres with less tread, which are better suited to dry forest trails. If you often ride on muddy trails, a narrower mountain bike tyre with coarser tread and studs spaced far apart is a good choice, as these ride more easily through such terrain. For rocky terrain, wider mountain bike tyres with coarse tread are recommended.

Wider mountain bike tyres use different compounds, with each part of the tyre getting the right material. The number of threads per inch (TPI) is also important. The higher the number of TPI, the smoother the tyre and the lower the rolling resistance, but this can reduce puncture resistance. Competition tyres often have a higher TPI, as performance takes precedence over durability here.

Why are mountain bike tyres thicker?

Compared to road or city bikes, mountain bikes generally have thicker tyres because they are designed for off-road adventures. These thick tyres play a crucial role in absorbing shocks and providing grip on rough terrains. The extra width also contributes to stability on technical trails and reduces the risk of punctures.

What is the lifespan of an MTB tyre?

The lifespan of an MTB tyre varies depending on several factors, such as the tyre type, the rider's riding style, the terrain and the level of maintenance. Generally, MTB tyres last between 2,000 and 8,000 kilometres, although this can vary depending on conditions. It is important to regularly check the condition of the tyres and replace them if necessary to ensure safety and efficiency while cycling.
