Road Bike Tyres

Finding the Best Road Bike Tyres 

When buying road bike tyres, you'll want to consider the tyre width for your riding style and frame clearance, as wider tyres offer more comfort and grip, while narrower ones might be slightly more aerodynamic.

You'll also need to factor in the puncture protection level you need based on your typical routes and tolerance for flats, balancing this with weight and rolling resistance. Finally, evaluate the tread pattern and rubber compound; slick tyres are fastest on smooth roads, while minimal tread can aid grip in wet conditions, and the compound affects grip, durability, and rolling resistance.

With leading tyre brands such as Continental, Vittoria, Schwalbe and Pirelli to choose from, you'll find the best road bike tyres brands at Sigma Sports.
