What is the lifespan of road bike tyres?

The lifespan of road bike tyres depends on several factors: the terrain you ride on, the conditions you face, the tyre pressure, and your riding style. Frequent rides on rough roads or in wet conditions can cause faster wear. Additionally, frequent skidding or carrying extra weight can contribute to tyre degradation. Some tyres come with wear indicators—small dimples in the tread. If these dimples are no longer visible, it’s time to replace your tyres.

Width of road bike tyres

Road bike tyres are available in various sizes, often with a circumference of 700x or 28 inches. The most common width for road bike tyres is currently 25mm, but there’s a growing trend towards wider tyres. This shift is supported by the rise of disc-brake bikes, which allow for wider tyres within the frame. Wider road bike tyres offer benefits such as improved grip, increased comfort, and reduced rolling resistance.

Inner tube or tubeless: what’s best for your road bike?

While most road cyclists still use traditional inner tubes, tubeless tyres are becoming increasingly popular. In a tubeless setup, no inner tube is used; instead, the tyre is mounted directly onto a tubeless-ready rim. Small punctures are sealed with latex injected into the tyre, significantly reducing the risk of flats. If you do get a puncture, you can always insert an inner tube into the tubeless tyre to get home safely. Learn more about installing tubeless tyres and other useful tips. Always ensure the correct tyre pressure using a valve and quality pump.

What are the pros and cons of tubeless road bike tyres?

Pros of tubeless road bike tyres:

• Lower rolling resistance for improved speed and efficiency.
• Increased comfort due to lower air pressure.
• Small punctures are automatically sealed, reducing the likelihood of flats.

Cons of tubeless road bike tyres:

• More challenging to mount compared to inner tube setups.
• Requires more maintenance.
• Repairing larger punctures may require more effort and the use of an inner tube.
