Calculate the ideal tire pressure for your bike tires (MTB, Road, Gravel). Optimize your performance, comfort, and safety on every ride.
Adequate tire pressure is far more than just a minor detail—it’s essential to your cycling experience. Here’s why:
IMPROVED GRIP & SAFETY
Properly inflated tires maintain maximum contact with the surface, enhancing traction in turns, braking, and climbing. This reduces the risk of slipping and accidents.
REDUCED RISK OF PUNCTURES
Too-low pressure increases the likelihood of pinch flats (when the tube gets pinched between the rim and an obstacle) and can damage rims. Proper pressure protects both your tires and rims.
INCREASED COMFORT
Slightly lower tire pressure absorbs bumps and vibrations from roads or trails, providing a smoother and more comfortable ride—especially on long rides.
OPTIMIZED EFFICIENCY & SPEED
Contrary to popular belief, overinflated tires aren’t always faster. Optimal pressure reduces rolling resistance on rough surfaces by allowing the tire to deform and absorb irregularities, rather than bouncing.
EXTENDED TIRE LONGEVITY
Correct pressure ensures even tire wear, extending their lifespan and saving you money in the long run.
PREVENTION OF RIM DAMAGESPrevention of Rim Damage
Especially in MTB, underinflated tires can cause harsh rim impacts against rocks or the ground, leading to dents or cracks.
Taking a few seconds to check and adjust tire pressure before each ride maximizes your cycling enjoyment, safety, and bike performance.
Good Ride!
