That’s exactly what you’ll find at Bike Addict, as our range of 27.5 MTB tyres is manufactured by the world’s leading cycling brands. As long as you mount them on a reasonable rim width (Bontrager recommend a 35mm as a good starting point) they don’t ricochet off big landings or square edge wallops like a lot of high-volume sub-kilo tyres do.

Gravel & Mountain Bike Tyres Wherever you plan on riding, finding the correct type of bike tyre is essential to the experience. Even if you plan on taking on multiple terrains, we have bicycle tyres that can stand up to the test of any surface. Clincher tyres are the most common type of mountain bike tyre. They use a bead to snap onto your wheel, which makes it easy to change a tube out on the trail. Plus, since they’re so common, it’s easy to find many different types of clincher tyres.Based on its Pinch Protection technology, which absorbs the energy from pinch flats and its Gravity Shield casing from the Enduro competition range.

Thankfully, this offering from Maxxis, along with those from Terravail, brings that dream to a more reasonable price point. I’m very happy that the industry finally heard me and my friends ranting about the need for a 27.5+ tire with tan sidewalls. Folding tyres are a lot like clincher tyres, but the bead isn’t quite as rigid. Folding tyres make great spares since they can be easily stored in a small bike bag for your ride. When looking to buy new bicycle tyres, you will need to know the size of the wheel, with mountain bikes generally requiring 27.5” bike tyres or the slightly larger 29” tyre. Road bikes on the other hand require 700c bike tyres, such as the Continental Grand Prix or Gatorskin.Due to its Gravity Shield casing from Enduro competitions. This offers great protection fro eMTB riding. Keep on Rolling, the Michelin E-Wild 27.5" is an electric mountain bike tyre that is designed to take you further. With both front and rear specific tyres designed specifically for e bikes the E-Wild tyres are perfect for power assisted mountain biking in challenging conditions.

Specifically, they note two technologies. Directly from Maxxis: Chunky new mountain bike tyres will help you grab some grip in slippery conditions, plus reduce the risk of a puncture by providing more protection when out on the trail.

Optimal grip with its lateral and central rubbers designed to optimise motricity, even on climbs, and transmit the bike's full power.

The width of tyre you can use on your bike depends in part on your wheels – each wheel is designed to accept tyres up to a maximum width. Wider tyres are preferred by a lot of riders because they offer more traction and make it easier to roll over obstacles. That said, as your tyres get wider, you’ll add rolling resistance to your bike and make it harder to accelerate. In general, trail and downhill mountain bikes use tyres between 2.25-2.5 inches. Cross country bikes typically use narrower tyres – 1.9-2.25 inches – to allow them to move faster and climb hills more efficiently.

Before we get to how they ride, let’s just take a moment to appreciate those beautiful sidewalls. I hadn’t gotten a single compliment on my bike before mounting these tires, but when I debuted my new setup on opening weekend in Downieville, I was getting stopped by all sorts of weekend warriors commenting on my sweet tan sidewalls. I can’t quite seem to put my finger on why the small infusion of beige on the sidewall sets off a bike’s build, but it does. It could be the nostalgia, or maybe it’s the color juxtaposition. Whatever it is, they don’t think it be like it is but it do.
