Which size do I need?

Check the size printed on the sidewall of your current tyre or in your owner’s manual, and keep the same or a higher load index and speed rating. Front and rear tyres have different profiles, so fit each tyre on the wheel it’s made for. Not sure? Use Shop Your Ride, or WhatsApp 079 231 2573 with your bike’s make, model and year.

Fitting and tyre pressure

Have the tyre fitted and balanced by a qualified fitter, and make sure the rotation arrow on the sidewall points in the direction of travel. On tubeless rims, fit a new tubeless valve with every tyre change. Set the pressure cold to the figure in your bike’s owner’s manual or on the chain guard or swingarm sticker, and check it regularly. New tyres have a smooth surface, so ride gently for the first 100 to 150 km while the tread scrubs in.

Frequently asked questions

Is it tubeless or tube-type?

Every size is a tubeless (TL) tyre. On a tubeless rim it seals against the rim bead, so no inner tube is needed. Fit a new tubeless valve when you replace the tyre. On spoked rims that are not tubeless, run it with an inner tube of the correct size.

How do I read a size such as 120/70-17?

120 is the tread width in millimetres, 70 is the aspect ratio (the sidewall height is 70% of the width), the pattern is of radial construction (the R is often left out when the size is written with a dash), and it fits a 17-inch rim.

Can Bike Sense deliver or fit these tyres?
