Cruiser Strat-O-Balloon

These tires are designed for 26-inch wheels, but they are quite wide at 2.125 inches. Before purchasing, ensure your bike frame and fork have enough clearance to accommodate this high-volume width.

Yes, these are tube-type tires. You will need to install a compatible inner tube with a Schrader or Presta valve, depending on your rim's drilling.

The 22 TPI (threads per inch) casing is on the lower end, which makes the tire sidewalls stiffer and more durable. While it isn't as supple as high-performance racing tires, it provides excellent stability and puncture resistance for casual city riding.

These are designed primarily for city streets, bike paths, and paved surfaces. The tread pattern is optimized for casual cruising rather than aggressive traction on loose dirt or technical trails.

Whitewalls can show dirt and brake dust more easily than all-black tires. A simple wipe-down with a damp cloth and mild soap after your ride is usually enough to keep them looking sharp.
