Perfect replacement so I can use my trainer

I replaced my mountain bike with this so I can use that Bike with my CycleOps trainer and it fits perfectly. Be sure to buy the recommended inner tube, Continental 26" bike inner tube, 1.25"/1.75" 42mm Presta valve.

Pros
  • Dimensions: 26 x 1-1/2 (42-584 ETRTO)
Cons
  • Don't really like it, everything is fine

My version is not 26 inches although stamped!

Are you kidding? The tire is labeled as for a 26" wheel, which is what I bought it for, but it's at least a 27.5" wheel if not a 29er. It's not even close. What a total waste of my time. Apparently the manufacturer forgot to verify the production of their factory in India, the seller didn't bother to confirm this. Truly amazing.

Pros
  • BeadTechnology: Puncture ProTection.Ply/TPI:3/180
Cons
  • I will add later

26 x 1.5 is a very misleading label, actually a custom size 650B

While I knew the pitfalls of tire sizes, I still had the frustrating experience of four incorrect sizes. Tires were sent to me. If you look at the fine print you will see that they are a different diameter than the standard 26 x 1.5 mountain bike wheel. Study the details carefully!

Pros
  • Color: Black
Cons
  • Communication with Seller

Excellent tyres. It was difficult to find city tires.

Great tyres. It was hard to find 27.5 suburban tires on wheels that didn't cost a fortune. They roll significantly faster than the tires that come with them. There are no apartments either. Most of the reviews that gave them bad ratings thought they were for 26" wheels. Those are 27.5/650b tires. Update: The tires have outlasted the bike, no flats, about 500 miles on them.

Pros
  • Bead: Wire
Cons
  • Only available in black
