How To Find The Perfect Tyre For You!
Finding the perfect "set-and-forget" all-rounder tyre can feel impossible. Neil Donoghue and Adam Scroxton break down the four critical pillars of tyre selection: tread, compound, construction, and the game-changing shift from diagonal to radial carcasses, using the latest range from Schwalbe. Whether you are dealing with sloppy British winters or hard-packed summer singletrack, we will show you how to match your tyres to your local geology, wheel rims, and riding style to unlock ultimate confidence on the trail. ⏱ Timestamps ⏱ 00:00 - The Guide To MTB Tyres 00:49 - The 4 Pillars Of Tyre Choice 01:43 - Why Your Local Geology Matters 02:45 - Tyre Construction Explained 04:09 - Diagonal vs. Radial Carcass Technology 06:00 - Tread Patterns: Fast Rolling vs. Mud Shredders 08:55 - Finding The Right Rubber Compound 09:47 - Rim Width & Hookless Compatibility 10:45 - Matching Tyres To Weight & Rider Skill 11:36 - Our Go-To All-Rounder Combinations Useful Links: Subscribe to the Channel for more! 👉 https://embn.me/subscribe Submit your Photo and Video to us 👉 https://embn.me/Uploader Looking for eBike Insurance?
