Depending on how you intend to use your bicycle you need to suit wheels to your riding style. For example, if you are a city rider you won’t really need knobby tires but rather some slick ones as they provide a higher rolling speed.
This article presents various types of tires depending on the type on bicycle and while we also take a look at their structure. We also offer you a glossary of terms regarding each number marked on the tire.
Wheel types and sizes
Wheels are divided into several categories: mountain bike, city, road, BMX and track wheel A tire size matches the size of the wheel to be mounted. Thus, among the most common tire sizes we mention 16, 20, 24, 26, 27.5 (new), 28 and. If the first two sizes are used for children, BMX or folding bicycles, the rest of the sizes can be seen on mountain, road or city bikes.
