| Fitting a tyre: |
First place the tyre on the valve side, then finish on the opposite side.Avoid using a tyre lever:this greatly increases the risk of punctures. |

Check your tyre pressure before every ride to avoid pinch flats and ensure optimal performance. |
| Choosing an inner tube: |
To properly maintain your bike, it is essential to know the exact dimensions of the tyres, which are indicated on their sidewalls (diameter and width).
For example, 27.5x2.00 refers to a tyre that is 27.5 inches in diameter and 2.00 inches wide.
The ETRTO, such as 50-584, indicates a width of 50 mm and an inner diameter of 584 mm, which is equivalent to 27.5x2.00. |
