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. 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?

Check the sidewall of your current tyre: TUBELESS or TL means no tube is needed on a tubeless rim, while TT or TUBE TYPE means an inner tube is required. WhatsApp 079 231 2573 if you are unsure.

How do I read a size such as 110/70-17?

110 is the tread width in millimetres, 70 is the aspect ratio (the sidewall height is 70% of the width), the dash separates the profile from the rim size, and it fits a 17-inch rim.

Can Bike Sense deliver or fit these tyres?

Yes. Bike Sense delivers tyres and tubes across South Africa from our Pretoria shop. Prices include VAT and delivery is quoted for your town. For delivery or fitting, WhatsApp 079 231 2573.
