6.7. Tires and Tubes

6.7.1.Tires

Bicycle tires are available in many

designs and specifications, ranging from

general purpose designs to tires

designed to perform best under very

specific weather or terrain conditions.

Your bicycle has been equipped with

tires that the bike's manufacturer

believed were the best balance of

performance and value for the use for

which the bike was intended. If, once

you've gained experience with your new

bike, you feel that a different tire might better suit your riding needs,

your dealer can help you select the most appropriate design. The

size, pressure rating, and on some high-performance tires the

specific recommended use, are marked on the sidewall of the tire

(see Fig. 20). The part of this information that is most important to

you is Tire Pressure.

WARNING: Never inflate a tire beyond the maximum pressure

marked on the tire’s sidewall. Exceeding the recommended

maximum pressure may blow the tire off the rim, which could cause

damage to the bike and injury to the rider and bystanders.

The best way to inflate a bicycle tire to the correct pressure is with a

bicycle pump. Your dealer can help you select an appropriate pump.

CAUTION: Gas station air hoses move a large volume of air very

rapidly, and will raise the pressure in your tire very rapidly. To avoid

overinflation when using a gas station air hose, put air into your tire

in short, spaced bursts.

Tire pressure is given either as maximum pressure or as a pressure

range. How a tire performs under different terrain or weather

conditions depends largely on tire pressure.

Inflating the tire to near its maximum recommended pressure gives

the lowest rolling resistance; but also produces the harshest ride.

High pressures work best on smooth, dry pavement.

Very low pressures, at the bottom of the recommended pressure

range, give the best performance on smooth, slick terrain such as

hard-packed clay, and on deep, loose surfaces such as deep, dry

sand.

Tire pressure that is too low for your weight and the riding conditions

can cause a puncture of the tube by allowing the tire to deform

sufficiently to pinch the inner tube between the rim and the riding

surface.

CAUTION: Pencil type automotive tire gauges and gas station air

hose pressure settings are generally inaccurate and should not be

depended on for consistent, accurate pressure. Instead, use a good

quality dial gauge.

Ask your dealer to recommend the best tire pressure for the kind of

riding you will most often do, and have the dealer inflate your tires to

that pressure. Then, check inflation as described in Section 4.3 so

you'll know how correctly inflated tires should look and feel. Some

tires may need to be brought up to pressure every week or two.

Some special high-performance tires have unidirectional treads: their

tread pattern is designed to work better in one direction than in the
