FAQ
There is no general answer to this question. It depends on several factors, including the type of tire, how intensively the bike is used and also under what conditions. In general, it is advisable to check tires regularly for signs of wear, cracks or other damage. If there is visible wear or poor grip, the tire should be replaced.
Schwalbe offers special tires for different weather conditions. For example, there are tires with a special tread design and rubber compound for better grip in wet and cold conditions, or tires that are optimized for dry and summer conditions. In addition, there are also winter tires with studs for icy and snowy roads.
To find the right tire size for your bike, first look at the imprint and engraving on your current tire. The size information is marked on the tire sidewall, often in millimeters (e.g. 37-622) or in inches (e.g. 28 x 1.40). If the size is no longer legible, you can also consider the frame size of your bike or the manufacturer's recommendations. You can then select the appropriate size using the Schwalbe size chart – always make sure that the tire size matches the requirements of the rim.
Many cyclists can mount tires themselves, especially if they have the necessary tools and experience. However, it can be helpful to visit a specialist dealer if you are unsure. A specialist can also help you ensure that the assembly is carried out correctly to minimize the risk of punctures.
