20" Monty Trials Tyre

This is the tyre used on the back wheels of Monty trials bikes. It has a huge air volume which makes landing big drops and jumping a lot easier.


Strengths

The huge air volume makes hopping higher a lot easier. The air volume also means the tyre absorbs more of the impact when dropping off things.

Weaknesses

Needs a Monty trials rim due to the reduced inner diameter of the tyre when compared to a standard 20" tyre.

Overall

A great tyre for trials! However, it's strength is also it's weakness - the huge air volume that gives the tyre so much bounce means you need a Monty specific rim so you can't put this tyre on just any old 20" wheel. It can be run at a low PSI rating thanks to it's thick sidewall.
