Bike Tires

Bike tires are the only point of contact between your bike and the road, gravel, or trail — a fact that makes tire selection one of the most consequential equipment decisions a cyclist makes. The right tire changes how a bike rides, handles corners, holds speed on rough surfaces, and resists punctures on long days away from a support vehicle.

RA Cycles carries 295 bike tires spanning road, track, gravel, and mountain bike disciplines from the leading tire manufacturers. Vittoria headlines the collection with the Pista Oro track tubulars and Corsa Pro road race tires, alongside a deep selection of clinchers, tubeless-ready, and tubular options across multiple widths, compounds, and tread patterns suited to every surface and riding style.

About Bike Tires

Choosing the right bike tire comes down to four factors: tire type, width, tread pattern, and compound. Road clinchers and tubeless-ready tires are the most versatile choice for everyday riding and training; tubulars are preferred by track cyclists and racers who prioritize the lightest possible rotating weight. Width affects rolling resistance and comfort — wider tires at lower pressures typically roll faster than narrow tires at high pressure on real-world surfaces. Compound hardness determines the balance between grip and longevity.

Vittoria leads the lineup with the Pista Oro — a premium graphene-enhanced tubular designed for velodrome racing — and the Corsa Pro, their WorldTour road race tire available in both tubeless and traditional configurations. The collection extends across multiple brands and categories including road training tires, gravel tires, mountain bike tires, and commuter options, covering widths from narrow road racing profiles to wide mountain bike treads.

Browse discounted options in our bike tires on sale collection, explore Vittoria bike tires or Pirelli tires by brand, and pick up tubes and tubeless sealant to complete your setup.
