What kind of tires does this bike have? What's the material? Is it suitable for bumpy pavement?

I agree with the other answers. The tires are wide and thick and will work well on bumpy pavement. Still this is a bike for a small child and bumpy pavement may not be safe unless an adult is pushing the bike.

They are rubber, air filled tires with good tread - perfect for bumpy pavement, gravel...you name it.

I take my grandson for walks down the paved road and it's has a great ride. The tires are soft rubber like a bicycle tire. I highly recommend this tricycle. He loves to load up the little bucket in the back.

We just took the trike out for its first spin, so I don't have lots of experience, but I can tell you that the tires look very durable. They are real pneumatic tires of a sturdy-looking rubber. The design of the trike allows for some give, too which I think would help on bumpy pavement. Our neighborhood had lots of uneven brick and it didn't have any trouble. Hope this helps!

It has air-filled tires. I think it would be very suitable for bumpy pavement as far as comfort goes. It's very small, though, so if the bumps are more like pot holes, it might not be up to that level of bumpiness.

Air up tires. Tires made of rubber. Trike metal and plastic. Probably good for bumpy pavement. If its too rough you can always lower the air psi in the tires a little.

Rubber. It's a solid bike. Stands up to rough kid use. We've been very happy with it.

It appears to be some kind of very solid foam. Both our boys have ridden ours a lot and the tires have held up with no problems. At ages 3 & 4, they can both ride a pedal bike with no training wheels!

I'm not sure what the diameter on the wheels are, but it is made of thin metal. Ihad one that the metal broke. I don't think I would use it on a bumpy street.

Yes, it is good for both paved and dirt roads. The tires have a good tread pattern, and the bike has good shocks to help absorb the bumps of a rough road. I do not do any hardcore trail riding, so I cannot testify to any further details of how it performs off-road. I have taken it off pavement though, over some slightly rougher terrain and through thick grass, and it handled it well. It does have a kickstand.

Gravel? Not at all. Sidewalk bumps? Sure. This is an "urban" stroller. Perfect for pavement, shopping malls, stuff like that. I take my kids to the park and it's fine going from the car through the grass/trail to the play area, but only in short bursts. We purchased a Bob jogging stroller for jogging and any "off-roading" that we do. The bigger, pneumatic tires are what you need for those types of environments.

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.

This bike is by no means a mountain bike but for the price is a very good folding bike. I have had two folders and Hasa is almost as good as the $450 dahon I have (after Hasa was stolen). I think it would do fine on dirt/fire roads but anything too bumpy would be tough on the bike and rider. If you are new to biking and do not plan on doing anything too crazy I would be willing to bet the bike would be fine on any dirt road you would feel comfortable on. I hope this helps.

Not technically a dirt bike but its durable so it would do fine on dirt. Not really a climbing bike but designed to take impact.

I primarily bought the bike for its size. Its handling on trails is good. The tires are sturdy enough for me; I weigh 250lbs. I was never worried about the tires slipping. Replacing the inner tubes is the only think that I don't like about the tires.

Each bump can be felt hard because there are no shock absorbers and the tires are thin.Bike runs well, so haven't had to call customer service yet.

I bought the rubber tire, and it is exactly as pictured, with the large, knobby bumps. It rides very smoothly, and I like the way it feels when riding; However, you mentioned the wheel, (the metal rim & spokes), and that is not part of the tire listed for sale. (Tire, Yes / Wheel, No)

Yes! This is a great tire. Very sturdy and smooth ride. Runs beautifully on dirt roads as well as paved. Best tire and value I have seen. I have these on 2 of my bikes including a tandem bike with a hub motor I just installed. This tire will work just fine on your bike and you will love it. 60+ years riding bikes.

The wheels seemed hard to me. Every little piece of gravel or irregularity in the road could be felt. I'm still searching for one with big, soft wheels?

The Joovy Tricycoo has been used on city sidewalks and on grass without any problems; however, not on bumpy roads. Unfortunately, I cannot answer your question. My son was initially worried about the tires of the trike wearning down after use, but since it was purchased in June, 2013 and used VERY frequently, the tires are holding up nicely. The entire bike is well constructed and will endure the play of an active toddler. Perhaps you may wish to contact the manufacturer directly about the trike's endurance.

Does fine. It's wheels are relative small so if the street is bumpy, you'll feel the bumps.

ribbed bumps. Not intense bumps by any means, it's not a very stiff wheel. But bumps nonetheless
