Going as low as possible is the name of the game with fat bikes and between 8-10psi is the common goal. With the air volume being so big, a pressure change of 1psi can make a huge difference so it’s worth experimenting to find your ideal setup. There are two major considerations when looking at choosing the best fat bike tire for your bike, and these come down to compatibility. The frame size and width to ensure the tire can spin freely and is not too tight or wide for your frame. The second is the width of your rim, a wider tire requires a wider rim. Tire bead is the term for the edge of a tire that sits on the wheel. The edge of the tire, known as the bead of a tire, is designed to sit within a groove on the wheel. When the tire is properly inflated to the correct air pressure (each tire will specify the correct air pressure), the bead slots firmly into that groove. This holds the tire in place on the wheel.You should always keep proof of postage and we advise you to use a ‘signed for service’ when returning goods.

Fat bike tires go all the way up to 5” wide, which make for some seriously fat tires. Although a 5” wide tire may be slower and heavier, it will easily ride through very loose and soft surfaces like slush and soft sand.This term refers to the chunks of rubber that are raised from the surface of the tire. Knobs often come in different sizes, shapes, and patterns. These are what give the tire grip and they are designed to perform on specific surfaces.

Lighter tires roll easier and will save energy over long distances but could compromise on protection, resulting in more punctures. Folding bead is a more modern technology that is lighter weight. It is known as a folding bead as without the wire the tire can be folded for transport.
