Romvelo Off-Road Tyres

Lets face it, not everyone that races can afford a top of the range Michelin for each event. In slick conditions, quite often a rider will be far better off with a new sharp edged inexpensive tyre, than an old worn out one with rounded off knobbles. 

The DirtBikeStore.com are pleased to announce that they have secured Sole Importership and Distribution for Romvelo Off-road Tyres and believe that the following products represent great value for money. 

The DirtBikeStore helped to develop the tyres and their extensive testing have shown them to have excellent grip and wear rates for the budget conscious user.

Other Tyres

Cougar/Kings Motocross Tyres

These tyres will either be Cougar or Kings, they have a good wear rate and are economically priced. - These tyres require an inner tube.

 

Trail/Trial Tyres

Road legal general purpose or dual sport tyres. There are many of these on the market, many at an economical price. This area of the market is enormous and quite frankly warrants a huge article just to themselves. We can not cover them here this time, but maybe we will look at them in detail at a later date if there is enough interest shown?

19" Speedway/Enduro Tyre

The 375-19 speed-way tyre is normally accepted for use in Enduros where trials tyres are specified as it has a similar pattern to a trials tyre. Dont let the width of the tyre put you off, they spread and can give excellent grip. 

Tubes

The tube is one part of the bike which gets fitted, and then forgotten about until a tyre change or a puncture. Like any other part of your bike it should be regularly cleaned, maintained and checked for wear.

Heavy Duty Inner Tubes

For off-road use where punctures are likely from rock impact etc. These inner tubes are well worth using. Normally they are made from a quality heavy duty butyl rubber.

Romvelo Extra Heavy Duty Inner Tubes

Romvelo Heavy duty tubes have been developed specifically for motocross and enduro and are much thicker than most heavy duty tubes and in our opinion as thick, if not thicker than the rest, this enables them to soak up high impacts without splitting. 

Rim Locks

Standard Rim Locks

Rim locks are essential on off road bikes which run their tyres at extremely low pressures. This is to stop tyre creep which will rip out the valve!

Standard rim locks often work well enough but can be bulky and prove awkward when changing tyres.

Alloy Die Cast Rim Locks

These rim locks are a high quality die cast alloy body with moulded rubber flap to protect against abrasion of inner tube. Ideal for applications that require low tyre pressures.
