National Cycle Network Route 1 DOVER – SHETLAND, along the east coast, via London, Edinburgh, John o' Groats and Orkney.
BICYCLE TYRES
- Inflating your tyres (pumping up) is a quick job that can easily improve your enjoyment while riding. The wrong tyre pressure will negatively affect the way that your bike rides, can be potentially dangerous, affect handling and can also make your bike more prone to punctures.
- Too LOW a pressure, the tyre can wear prematurely. Excessive flexing in the sidewall can lead to the casing cracking and the tyre becoming fragile. This could eventually lead to a blowout. Excessively low pressures may even result in your tyres literally rolling off the rim if you corner at speed (the pressure inside is what holds your tyre on the rim). Damage can also be caused if the tyre deflects all the way down to the rim. This can result in dents or cracking, potentially compromising your wheel and resulting in an expensive replacement.
- Too HIGH a pressure could result in your tyre blowing off the rim with explosive consequences. The pressure can also squeeze the wheel because if it’s too high the compressive force on the wheel can be too high. It also can result in reduced grip and a harsh ride, leading to fatigue and in turn impacting handling.
