What is a 28 Inch Bicycle Tire?

A 28 inch bicycle tire is the outer layer of the tire that comes into contact with the road. This tire determines how your bike rides, how much grip you have, and how well the tire withstands wear and punctures. The 28 inch size is a commonly used standard for city bikes, hybrid bikes, and some racing bikes. A good tire ensures that you are less likely to get a flat and can ride comfortably.
 

Different Types of 28 Inch Bicycle Tires

The type of tire you need depends on how and where you ride.

•    Smooth Tread: Suitable for city bikes and asphalt. Less rolling resistance, so you ride lighter and faster.
•    Light Tread: A combination of grip and speed. Suitable for both urban and rural roads.
•    Rough Tread: Ideal for unpaved roads and wet conditions. More grip on mud and gravel.

Additionally, there are various types of technologies:

•    Puncture-Resistant Tires: Extra reinforced against sharp objects. Prevents punctures and lasts longer.
•    Tubeless Tires: Used without an inner tube and offer lower rolling resistance and less chance of punctures.
•    E-bike Tires: Specifically designed for electric bikes, with extra reinforcement and better grip at higher speeds.
 

What to Consider When Buying a 28 Inch Bicycle Tire?

To choose the right tire, you should pay attention to a few things:

•    Size: The 28 inch size is standard, but always check the ETRTO size (e.g., 37-622) for the exact width and rim size.
•    Tread: Do you only ride on asphalt? Choose a smooth tire. Do you often ride on gravel? Then a rougher tread is better.
•    Puncture Protection: Want to reduce the chance of a flat tire? Choose a tire with extra protection, such as the Schwalbe Marathon or the Continental Contact Plus.
•    Compatibility: Check if the tire is suitable for your type of bike and braking system (rim brakes or disc brakes).
•    Tire Pressure: Higher pressure results in less rolling resistance and faster rides. Lower pressure provides more comfort and grip.

Inflate your tires regularly to the correct pressure and check them for wear. This way, they last longer and you ride more safely.
