Tire

The Altaline 26" x 2.50 bicycle tire is a wide mountain/dual-purpose tire designed for use on 26-inch wheel bikes, especially older mountain bikes, cruisers, and hybrids that need extra traction. It features:

šŸ“ Size & Fit

  • 26 inches diameter x ~2.50 inches width — a fairly wide tire that gives a larger contact patch for stability and grip.

  • Fits most bikes with 26″ rims, common on many mountain bikes and hybrids.

🧱 Tread Pattern

  • Big square knobby tread — large rubber blocks sticking out from the tire surface that dig into dirt, gravel, loose soil, and uneven terrain.

  • Knobby design helps provide better traction and control off-road compared to smooth road tires.

āš™ļø Performance

  • Best for trail riding, dirt paths, grass, gravel, and mixed surfaces — the aggressive tread gives grip where you need it.

  • On paved roads, these knobs provide a chunkier feel and more rolling resistance than slick or semi-slick tires.

  • Tire pressure typically recommended around 40–65 PSI (check exact manufacturer).

šŸ› ļø Construction

  • Standard clincher type tire made of durable rubber — works with traditional inner tubes.

  • Black sidewalls and tread give a clean all-black look.
