Bicycle tires – your most important point of contact with the road

Bicycle tires play a crucial role in your experience and performance on the bike. They are your direct point of contact with the ground, and therefore the choice of tires has a great impact on both speed, comfort, grip and safety. Whether you ride on the road, triathlon or fitness training, the bicycle tire must be able to match both your needs and the conditions you ride in. With us you will find tires from leading manufacturers such as Pirelli, Continental and Schwalbe – all known for high quality, reliability and innovation. These brands deliver tires that perform in the world's biggest races and are also designed to function in everyday life, regardless of whether you ride in competition or training. But to get the most out of your tires, it is important to understand the different types and properties so that you choose the right setup for your bike and your purpose.

Clincher, tubeless and different widths – what should you choose?

When choosing bicycle tires, you will quickly come across terms such as clincher, tubeless and tire width. Clincher tires are the most common type and are used with a tube inside the tire. They are easy to install, budget-friendly and easy to repair in the event of a puncture. Tubeless tires, on the other hand, are ridden without a tube and have become increasingly popular, especially among road and gravel riders. The advantage of tubeless is that you can ride with lower tire pressure, which provides increased comfort and better grip - without the risk of snakebites (pinched tubes). At the same time, punctures can often be sealed automatically by the latex fluid in the tire. However, this requires that the rim is tubeless compatible, and installation can be more demanding.

Tire width is also a significant factor. Where 23 mm tires were typically used in the past, today many riders are choosing wider tires such as 25, 28 or even 30 mm. Wide tires provide lower rolling resistance at lower pressures, significantly increase comfort and provide better grip – especially on uneven or wet roads. However, this requires that the frame and brakes have room for the extra volume. If you primarily ride on smooth asphalt and are looking for low weight and maximum speed, narrower tires are still a solid choice. However, for longer distances, hilly routes and Danish asphalt, it can pay to choose a wider profile for a more comfortable and controlled experience. All of our brands – Pirelli, Continental and Schwalbe – offer tires in several widths and both as clincher and tubeless, so you can find exactly what suits your setup.

How to maintain and optimize your bicycle tires

Once you’ve chosen the right tire, it’s all about getting it to perform at its best – and that requires proper maintenance and attention to tire pressure. The optimal tire pressure depends on your weight, tire width, and road conditions. If you drive with too high a pressure, you lose comfort and grip, and the risk of punctures increases. If you drive with too low a pressure, the tire can feel heavy and unstable. Use an accurate tire pressure gauge and find the sweet spot where you achieve a good balance between rolling resistance and comfort.

Check your tires regularly for wear and damage – especially if you ride many kilometers or in varying weather conditions. Tires with tread or tears should be replaced to avoid punctures or poorer performance. If you ride tubeless, you should also remember to top up fluid regularly, as it dries out over time. Many riders choose to have an extra set of tires ready so they can quickly change up for races or when changing seasons and weather types. Whether you prioritize low rolling resistance, high comfort or maximum durability, you will find bicycle tires with us from Pirelli, Continental and Schwalbe that match your requirements. And with the right knowledge and maintenance, you will get both better training experiences and higher speeds – without compromising on safety.
