Mountain Bike Road Tires
Also known as slick or semi-slick mountain tires, mountain road tires are made for those who ride their mountain bikes on the road. Traditional knobby mountain bike tires are not designed for common road use and will wear down especially quickly when used on paved roads. Slick/semi-slick mountain tires utilize a smooth tread on a tire with mountain tire dimensions. Slick/semi-slick mountain tires are often utilized by mountain bike racers when racing short track, a discipline in which mountain bikes are raced on courses containing pavement, gravel, packed dirt and man-made obstacles, as by well as commuters and anyone with a nice fat-tire cruiser.
Continental, Michelin, Kenda, Innova, and Ritchey are some of the best known manufacturers that provide slick mountain tires to suit all of your needs.
