The tire structure
The core of the tire determines the tire diameter and ensures that it sits securely on the rim. The core of the tire usually consists of a bundle of wire. In folding tires, a ring made of aramid fibers is used instead of wire.
The carcass is the “framework” of the tire. The textile fabric is coated with rubber on both sides and cut at a 45 degree angle.

Test results of the tire tests
Tire testing is a key component for mountain bike enthusiasts to evaluate the performance and versatility of different tire models. In reputable magazines such as MTB News, MTB Rider Mag and Dirtmountainbike, as well as other leading publications, these tests are carefully conducted to provide riders with an informed basis for making decisions.
These tests examine various aspects of tire performance, including traction on different surfaces such as mud, rock and forest floor, rolling resistance on different surfaces, handling in corners and on technical trails, and the durability and reliability of the tire in demanding conditions.
The tests in these magazines are not only informative but also inspiring as they showcase the latest innovations and developments in the mountain bike tire industry and help riders take their riding experience to the next level.

Differences between clincher, folding and tubeless tires
The different types of bicycle tires - clincher, folding and tubeless tires - each have specific characteristics and uses that are due to their design and function. Here are the main differences and characteristics:
Clincher
Characteristics:
- Structure: There is a wire in the tire bead that gives the tire its name and holds it to the rim hook.
- Weight: Higher weight compared to folding tires.
- Compatibility: Optimized for use with conventional tubes and rims.
- Puncture protection: Often provided with a reinforcing rubber layer.
- Price: Cheaper than folding tires.
Advantages:
- Cheap price.
- Large selection.
- Easy installation on conventional rims.
Disadvantages:
- Heavier weight.
- Not foldable.
- Usually not tubeless compatible.
Folding tires
Characteristics:
- Construction: Instead of a wire, flexible aramid fibers (e.g. Kevlar) are used in the bead, which makes the tire foldable.
- Weight: Lighter than clincher tires, with a weight saving of about 50-100 grams.
- Compatibility: Can be used with both tubes and tubeless if marked “Tubeless ready”.
- Performance: Better driving characteristics due to the lower weight.
Advantages:
- Lower weight.
- Improved driving characteristics.
- Easier to transport because it is foldable.
- Mostly tubeless compatible.
Disadvantages:
- More complex assembly for “tubeless ready” models.
- More expensive than clincher tires.
Tubeless tires
Characteristics:
- Construction: No tube required; the tire seals together with the rim.
- Compatibility: Tires and rims must be marked as tubeless compatible (Tubeless ready, TLR).
- Sealant: Use of sealant to seal small holes while driving.
Advantages:
- Very good puncture protection, as no tube defects (e.g. snakebites) occur.
- Lower weight as the hose is eliminated (up to 200 grams saved).
- Best possible driving characteristics due to lower rolling resistance and the ability to drive with lower air pressure.
Disadvantages:
- More complex conversion and assembly.
- Regular maintenance required (replacement of sealant).
Conclusion of the comparison
- Clincher tires: Ideal for everyday bikes and e-bikes in the entry-level and mid-range range, where robustness and low price are more important than weight.
- Folding tires: Better suited for sporty riders who value low weight and high performance. Usually also tubeless compatible, which offers additional advantages.
- Tubeless: Particularly advantageous for ambitious mountain bikers and riders who want to benefit from the best riding characteristics and very good puncture protection, but are willing to accept the higher maintenance costs.
The choice of tire type depends largely on the individual requirements and the area of use of the bike.
What types of puncture protection are available for 20x4 tires?
There are different types of puncture protection for 20x4 tires, including:
-
Classic puncture protection (B-Proof) : This includes rubber inserts under the tread that protect the tires from punctures and cuts.
-
Override Technology : This technology offers a more advanced form of puncture protection. Some features of this technology are:
-
Stronger casing : The Override casing is three times stronger than conventional aramid belts like B-Proof and twice as strong as improved versions like B-Proof+.
-
Lower TPI for better strength : Using a lower TPI (threads per inch) improves the puncture, cut and abrasion resistance of the tire.
-
Weight : The tire may be a little heavier due to the robust construction. However, this should be barely noticeable for riders of fast e-bikes with high-speed motors, as their main priority is performance and safety.
-
The choice between B-Proof puncture protection and Override technology depends on the individual needs of the rider, with Override technology being a more robust and advanced option for riders who experience extreme conditions and high speeds.
Tubeless or tube - which is the better choice?
The choice between tubeless or tubeless depends on your personal preferences and the area of use. Tubeless systems offer advantages such as a lower susceptibility to punctures and cuts, as the sealing fluid seals smaller holes directly. You can also ride with a lower tire pressure, which provides better traction.
With tubes, on the other hand, installation is often easier, and if the tire is more seriously damaged, a tube is quicker and easier to replace than a tubeless repair. Also keep in mind that tubeless tires and rims have to be specially designed for this, which can incur additional costs. So think carefully about whether you value comfort and performance or whether ease of use is more important to you.

Tips for choosing the optimal tire for your needs
Features you should look for in downhill tires
When downhill, every contact with the ground counts, so the right MTB tires are crucial. Pay attention to the tire width on the mountain bike: wider tires offer more grip and stability. 29-inch MTB tires are popular because they roll over bumps better. When choosing downhill tires, you should also pay attention to the profile - deep studs for muddy terrain and flatter ones for dry conditions. The best enduro tire combines grip, puncture protection and good rolling properties. => Our most popular enduro tires are the Attack HPL , Attack FSX, Flow Snap , Snap Trail and Flow R-CP
The MTB tire test can help you find the best DH tires. Mountain bike tires should be robust and the tire combination at the front and rear must be right. Often wider at the front for grip, narrower at the rear for speed. Downhill tire test reports give you insights into which MTB downhill tires perform well on the trail.

Hey, you probably want to know how the VEE Tire Co tires performed, right? We put them through their paces. Well, in terms of performance, we were really impressed. The tires showed great grip on various surfaces - whether asphalt or gravel, they had real bite.
The tires also scored highly in terms of comfort. Even on bumpy roads, the ride still felt comfortable. Durability is another plus point. After intensive use, the tires still looked great, with no sign of early wear.
And now the best part: the price-performance ratio. You don't have to dig deep into your pockets for the quality that VEE Tire Co delivers. This makes the tires a real insider tip for anyone who values quality and a good deal. In short, our test drive proved that you really can't go wrong with these tires!
What should I consider when buying children's bicycle tires?
There are a few important things to consider when buying children's bicycle tires:
-
The size : Make sure you choose the right tire size for your child's bike. The size is often indicated on the side of the tire, for example 16 x 2.25.
-
Tread and tire pattern : Depending on where your child rides, whether on trails, gravel paths or on the road, you can choose between different treads. For MTB, tires with a more aggressive tread like the Crown Gem Jrs or the Flow Snap Jr may be ideal, while for gravel biking, tires with a less aggressive tread like the Rail Jr or the Speedster Jr are suitable. For road riding, you could opt for the Speedster Jr or the Cub .
-
Width : The width of the tires affects the handling of the bike. For MTB and gravel biking, wider tires could offer more traction and comfort, while narrower tires for the road often allow for a faster ride. If you want to pimp your child's bike, check in advance whether the tire you want fits in the fork or rear triangle. The ETRTO specification also includes the width of the tire (e.g. 57-305 means that the tire is approx. 57 mm wide). In this case, the space in the fork and rear triangle should be more than 60 mm so that the tire can run freely.
-
Material and Durability : Kids can often be rough on their bikes, so look for tires that are sturdy and durable to minimize punctures and breakdowns.
-
Weight : Light tires can reduce the overall weight of the bike and make it easier for children to handle.
-
Air pressure : Make sure you maintain the recommended air pressure for the tires you choose to ensure the best performance and safety. The recommended air pressure is indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Correct air pressure also helps tires last longer. If the pressure is consistently too low, it can lead to cracking.
Consider these points when deciding between the different options and select the tires that best suit your child's needs and riding style.
Seven tips for the perfect MTB tire
Some people pay little attention to them, but tires are one of the most important components on a bicycle. The tire is the contact piece between the driver and the ground. They transmit braking forces, acceleration energy and changes of direction over a small area, about the size of a postcard. You usually don't even notice a good tire. A bad tire, on the other hand, not only leads to a lack of safety in bad weather conditions, but also often leads to a negative change in the handling of the bike.
We'll tell you what you need to consider when choosing the right tire besides the brand 😉.
- The size
In addition to the tire size in inches (e.g. 27.5 inches), the tire width is also crucial, as the rim, fork and/or rear triangle limit the selection. The tire size is stated either in inches (27.5 x 2.35) or in ETRTO (e.g. 60-584, European Tire and Rim Standard, European Tire and R in the T echnical Organization ). The ETRTO size designation indicates the width (60 mm) and the inner diameter of the tire (584 mm) - a clear designation that can be used to clearly assign the rim size.
The customs information, on the other hand, is not so clear and clear. 26 inches can be assigned different diameters depending on the type of bike (diameter 559 mm MTB, 571 mm triathlon and 590 mm Dutch touring bikes).
Customs details are more common in MTB sports, which is why they are also stated on all tires.
The inside diameter of the tire and the shoulder diameter of the rim must match so that the tire sits correctly on the rim - a tire with the ETRTO 37-622 fits, for example. B. on a rim 622 x 19C.
The tire width and the inner rim width must also match.
- profile
The profile determines the traction and rolling resistance. Therefore, city/trekking bikes usually have a more closed profile, as these are more advantageous on asphalt or other solid surfaces than MTB tires with an open profile.
These in turn excel on soft, loose surfaces. But here too, you have to pay attention to what and how you drive. In downhill/enduro sports, the cleats are larger and often more free-standing than in cross-country sports.
For SUV bikes, the MTB tires are designed so that the center profile appears more closed, while the outer lugs are free-standing to offer the best possible grip on terrain, especially in curves, while experiencing little rolling resistance on road surfaces.
- The mixture
Or compound. As a rule, different rubber materials are mixed together in order to reconcile the different properties of a tire, which often compete, and to find an optimal compromise. These properties are rolling resistance, grip, downforce and durability.
We use e.g. For example, our Dual Control Compound has a harder compound on the tread to ensure less rolling resistance and more durability and a softer compound on the side knobs to provide good grip in corners.
If you have two different tire models on the front and rear wheels, then the rear tire should always have the harder rubber compound.
- The carcass
When it comes to the tire casing, the casing, you will read information like 72 TPI (or EPI, Ends per Inch, Threads per Inch). This indicates the density of the carcass fabric. We offer casings from 24 up to 120 TPI.
The higher the TPI number, the tighter the mesh and higher quality a casing is. Finer casings offer lower rolling resistance and provide better puncture protection (more on that later). A 67 TPI carcass is considered the optimal compromise between low weight and greater robustness.
- The breakdown protection
As previously indicated, the carcass plays an important role. Higher thread count casings (higher TPI/EPI count) are harder to puncture. However, from a TPI number of around 127, the threads are too fine and therefore no longer as stable.
A puncture protection belt, we call it B-Proof, under the tread provides greater puncture protection. A rubber/aramid belt with a thickness of 3 or 5 mm is used here. This lies between the tread and the tube and therefore protects against a puncture, i.e. a puncture.
For some people it is also worth considering an insert, such as: B. the Mefo bicycle mousse.
- The air pressure
Occasionally, customers complain that tires become cracked. This is usually due to insufficient air pressure when storing the bike, because air pressure also plays a role here. If the tires are flat for months, the tire material is stressed and cracks form.
But of course the pressure is also crucial for driving behavior, which is why the air pressure should be checked regularly and corrected if necessary. If the pressure is too high, the tire will literally jump; if the pressure is too low, it will flex. The risk of a breakdown is also higher if the air pressure is too low. It is particularly important for sporty drivers to find out the right air pressure for their own driving behavior. Recommendations can be found on the tire sidewall.
Bluetooth tire pressure monitoring systems such as the AIRsistant , as we know them from cars, are now also entering the market. They are a worthwhile addition so that you can always travel optimally.
- Tube or tubeless
A question of philosophy. The hose can be easily replaced if it is broken, but you always have to have a replacement with you when touring.
Tubeless installation is a bit more complex and some people swear when changing the sealant. Tubeless tires offer less rolling resistance, higher grip and more puncture protection. Mountain bikers often ride tubeless without having to fear a “snakebite” in the tube, where the tube is damaged if the rim flanges puncture.
Ultimately, everyone has to decide for themselves whether they want to ride tubeless or tubeless. Like everything in life, both options have their advantages and disadvantages.
