MBIKER_SURFER Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) I just wanted to change my V10 tire due to low tread depth. I already ordered a 16 X 2,5 tire from Kenda. But this tire is much to big. What do I have to look for to get the right spare tire? The shop I bought the wheel don't have spare tires for the V10F! Is it this 64-305 info despite the written 16 X 2.5, which is more relevant? Sorry for asking this stupid question Edited July 14, 2019 by MBIKER_SURFER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for asking this stupid question too big? the original tire is kenda 16x2.5... this one... what did you buy? that number is important if you want the exact same tire yes but other numbers of the same tire size generally mean a different tread it should still fit... you have pics of the new one?

MBIKER_SURFER Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 Yes - on the new tire the same info. Therefore I didn't check it earlier. Tire is about 3 month old. The 3rd picture shows the new tire on top of the V10....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidewalk Enforcer Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Damn, you wore the tire out in 3 months, good effort! Seen them listed on AliExpress but they wanted $160 +shipping which strikes me a bit steep for a piece of rubber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - in 1 year with 6000 km of riding :-)) On Ali it's about 30 € (see the link of @Rywokast- but it takes too long for delivery.

Rywokast Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) oh wow.. yea little big..... I don't think that's the right type of tire at all, that tire is 16" INSIDE dimension, meaning it goes on a 16" rim its probably a regular bicycle tire.. where did you get it? need to get one that is 16 outside measurement.. there should be tons of places to get a replacement tire near you most places that sell euc should have spare tires don't have to get it from ali Edited July 14, 2019 by Rywokast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBIKER_SURFER Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) @Rywokast: Thanks - that is the explanation. So it was my fault, not looking correctly resp. inexperience, tht 16 X 2.5 is not 16 X 2.5. Luckily, I'm not going bancrupt due tjis wrong buy - grrrrrrrr..... I'll try my luck tomorrow Edited July 14, 2019 by MBIKER_SURFER 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
