Is it a folding tire?

it is a fairly stiff tire. Not heavy, but built for rough terrain. I ride them on roads close to the beach, full of shell shards, stickers, etc. After many months of use, I have not had a problem with flats. Stiff, not flexible at all.

No, you can't fold the tire and ride on it. Do you mean if it comes folded in shipment? Well it didn't. It came already unfolded.

The specs say it is a wire bead tire...so it is not a folding tire. Wire beads can be carefully twisted into a figure eight then folded to make them much smaller and packable to fit into a pannier or back pack...but I doubt you could get it into a typical under-seat pack. Good luck.

Hello Yes I have bought this tire when I was in the states , It a OK street tire , I would classify it as a low to mid range tire , If you inter to only be on the street , and you are 200 lbs or less I would look else where , because of the knobs it has a bit more drag hope this helps

No, this is a tubeless tire that seats to the rim just like a car tire. Check out the link to the installation video that I included in my original comment

Yes, it folds at the front wheel. It's pretty easy to carry with you while shopping or take on public transport. I've had it for about 8 months and I love it!

As long as the wheels are straight, it can be pushed. Remember though, it cannot be folded unless the stabilizer bar is removed first.

I don't know. It is on my bike now and I didn't try to bend it before installing it on my bike. It's a great tire though. Really tough.

Yes, it is a folding card. Comes flat in a box and takes very little effort to fold when not in use. I love mine.

The size is the same. (I think these come from different vendors...check the vendor when you select the size and see if it changes) I think the main thing to look for is if the tire is foldable or not. I bought the non-folding tires. They are a little heavier, but cost less. Folding tires cost a bit more, but are more expensive. You have to really look at the weight between the tires to tell them apart. I think the 700x23c are 280 grams for non folding and 230 grams for the folding. I am a big guy, so weight isn't an issue. I'm 6'5" 225lbs and these work great. I just did a half Ironman triathlon with them and had no issues.

I don't know about the wire bead...mine says kevlar. Yes, it comes flat & folded which makes it difficult to keep inside the wheel rim while you try to keep the tube in place as you mount and fill it. I've purchased folded tires before and they weren't quite this difficult to work with - next time I might take a harder look at unfolded, pre-shaped tires. But it does perform like a great tire once mounted.

no! it is a extra strong 2 ply tire. i run it on a 2,000# toro diesel 223d groundmaster. it is the same tire that came on it new in 2000. i am very pleased with them!

No. It is a sheet of cardboard that is cut and perforated so as to fold to the correct size.

No; In my opinion, this is a very light-duty device; really only meant to help a person change a tire on a very light-duty vehicle in an emergency.

No. This particular tire has a wire bead. Next to impossible to get on. Spend a little more money and get a foldable.

No, when it's folded the front wheels are up by the handles and the rear wheels are on the opposite end.

I think you mean tire, this isn't a wheel. It has max 8.5 bar... or 120psi.

Quite simply, it does what the word's definition means; you can fold the tire. There are two types of tires [folding and non-folding] that you can find at a local sporting goods store. The difference has to do with application. Usually, you find non-folding tires hanging around the store. These guys are typically more solid in construction because they have wire reinforcement in the tread/backbone and are generally heavier. Folding tires can fit into a nice 3x5x5 box and makes storage, transport, and carrying a spare significantly easier because they have something light, such as kevlar, as the backbone support structure. I imagine your next question would be "Why one over the other?". It comes down to preference since there really isn't much difference. I use the folding ones because I typically ride for distance and that extra weight you're pushing adds up in fatigue after a while. When I go on trails or any sort of off road situation is present, I use the non-folding on my mountain bike simply because I make the association of rigidity with strength and I want a lot of that when I'm going downhill.

Yes, this is a tubeless tire. In the future, try a direct query to the tire manufacturer, their web site is most likely to give you the information you need.
