Primo Wall tyres
Primo Wall Tyres

There are loads of tyres out there, but these are the ones that I always use, which is weird because I normally like to try new products as often as possible. If it ain't broke etc, etc...

I run one on my back wheel with another one inside it (only the bit with the tread on - I cut the rest off otherwise it wouldn't fit). With this set-up, I haven't had a puncture in about a year and a half. Added to that, when I pump it up to the maximum recommended pressure (85psi), that thing is rock solid and rolls like s***off a shovel.

They grip well, can be used on nearly every surface, come in two sizes (1.85 and 2.10) and a range of (stupid) colours (just buy black).

Overall, they're just a really good, solid, dependable tyre.
