pressure and generally also on the mini-
mum permitted tire pressure. If you replace
the tires, only exchange them for the same
model with the same dimensions and pro-
file. The riding experience can otherwise be
negatively affected.
If the inflation pressure rating indicated on
the tire and on the rim differ, the lowest max-
imum pressure and the highest minimum
pressure apply.
Tires are available in various di-
mensions. The tire dimensions are
provided with standardised informa-
tion.
Example 1: "46-622" means that the tires
have a width of 46 mm and the rim has a
diameter of 622 mm.
Example 2: "28 x 1.60" states that the tire
has a diameter of 28 inches and a width of
1.60 inches.

Tires and tire pressure

The amounts for the recommended tire pressure
can either be named in bar or PSI. The follow-
ing table presents the conversions for the usu-
al pressure levels and shows which tire widths
these pressures should be applied to.

You must observe the information
provided by tire and rim manufac-
turers. This could possibly be differ-
ent from the tire pressures listed here. Not
adhering to these guidelines can lead to
damage to your tires and inner tubes.
You should also regularly check
your tires. The lowest and highest
authorised pressures can be found
on the side of the tire. Please adhere to
these values, otherwise the tire may detach
from the rim or burst.
If the inflation pressure rating indicated on
the tire and on the rim differ, the lowest max-
imum pressure and the highest minimum
pressure apply.
