Would this tire work well for a trainer and what size tube does it need?

It works amazing on a trainer. It's quiet. I'll check to see what tire I got for it. I don't remember exactly but I bought it at the same time.

It's slick but it becomes tacky with friction, your call for trainer use. Tubes are tubes; I've run 1 1/2"s - 2 3/4"s in them just fine. Shoot for the lower for higher psi.

Yes, obviously slick in the rain, or even on dry pavement. You need a 1 1/4ish tube. Holding up well.

I have 29in Trek mtn bike and this trainer did not fit my wheels. There wasnt enough clearance between the floor and my tire.

I believe these tires are little to wide to fit on your bike. If nothing else, it is a good idea to replace tubes.

you need tires that are 26x2.i25 if you have a 26 inch bike.most tubes today will say on box.26x 1.75 to 2.125put a little air in tube,then put tube in tire to,install easy..if its late 50s could be 26x 1.75 make sure of 26-25 size wheel.make sure of your size.put wheel next to other size wheel on a other bike.keep riding!!

Yes this trainer fits all road tires as well as MTB tires as it only contacts or touches the rim not the tire. Thus no tire wear either.

No, it won't fit that tire size is too big you need a 700x23c-25 tires but I recommend 700x25c it will fit perfect the 23c will be tight and its a struggle to put it on and off. The thickness of the tire it depends if you want them thick or thin that's all.

The tire size is a 700 x 25 so you want that size, but you need a tube with a schrader valve, the kind that's on a car tire.

I have a 'Specialized Expedition' bike on my trainer with 26 x 1.95 tires , and have found that the tire wear is somewhat greater than normal road wear, however, the key is maintaining the proper tension and tire pressure to insure longer tire wear.

Not sure what size bike you have or tire you need. If your bike uses 26" tires them yes this is a great tire.

Most tubes give a min max tire size. A 2.0 to a 2.25 would work fine for a 2.1 tire.

Thank you for your inquiry. This trainer will fit a 700c, 26-27 inch wheel. Unfortunately, it will not be compatible with a 28" wheel. The MagRoller is adjustable for the different tire diameter.

the 26 is the important part so you should be good. I currently run a 23 millimeter wide tire on a 23 millimeter wide rim so the width is fine too. just don't go any narrower.

The wheel is 700 x 25. You want tubes that are 700 x 25. Usually tubes will come in ranges. Most common range is 700x18-23 and 700x20-25. Both will actually fit the tire as tubes expand easily. If you do decide to use 700x18-23, go 10 less than the maximum PSI on the tires. If you go 700x20-25, you're can just fill it up to the maximum PSI.This bike does not require the valee to be a schrader valve. Presta works as well. I have prestas on mine as they are easier to work with when you need to deflate for quick changes.

The Kenda K838,26" x 2.125 is the best tire for the price, But is dose work better with a wider rim 34mm for the frt. and 39mm for the rear.Alex MTB 24 and 32 is what I run. You can but them from ebikesf.com or from some other dealer.

Perfect tube for 700c x 23 tire. I've used them in both 23 and 25mm tires and have zero complaints.

I would feel comfortable putting a kenda 700 x 40 tire on your bike...should fit ok...I would recommend always changing the tube when you change a tire, especially the rear tire...I would recommend using a kenda 700 x 40-45 tire tube...it is available on amazon for about $3.54 plus shipping...I have both tires and tubes, very satisfied...

A lawn and garden store that carries the tires can tell you what size tube to use. I myself don't use tubes.
