Collection: MTB tires

All-terrain bicycle (MTB) tires are designed to provide optimal performance on a variety of terrains, from forest trails to mountainous terrain.

Here are some key features of MTB tires:

• Types of Tires: MTB tires can be classified into 3 main types: Tubetype, Tubeless and Tubeless Ready tires. The Tubetype is a tire intended to be mounted with an inner tube. Tubeless is a tire mounted without an inner tube, which may or may not contain preventive fluid. Tubeless Ready is a tire mounted without an inner tube, which contains a preventative
• Dimensions: The dimensions of a MTB tire are defined and controlled by the ETRTO (European Tire and Rim Technical Organisation). Three dimensions coexist for MTB wheels: the 26″ corresponds to 559 millimeters, the 27.5″ corresponds to 584 mm and the 29″ represents 622 mm of internal diameter of the rim
• Width: The width of a tire impacts the behavior of a mountain bike. The wider the tire, the greater the grip and comfort1. A tire width less than 2″ characterizes narrow tires. The narrower the tire, the lower the resistance forces
• Yield and Category: Yield, or the tire's ability to transmit effort with minimal loss, goes hand in hand with grip. The more a tire is studded, the more imposing these studs are, the less its performance is good.
• Front and Rear Tires: It is common to opt for a different tire on each wheel. A very rolling tire at the rear and another giving more grip at the front allow you to optimize the performance of your machine.

These features make mountain bike tires an ideal choice for riders looking for a combination of comfort, safety and performance on their off-road adventures. They are available in a range of brands, such as Hutchinson, Michelin, Maxxis or Schwalbe.
