Inflating road bike tyres is a straightforward process. Here’s a step-by-step guide: 1. Find out the Right Pressure: Road bike tyres typically require a pressure of between 80 to 130 PSI (pounds per square inch), depending on the rider’s weight and tyre width. The exact recommended pressure should be written on the sidewall of the tyre. 2. Get the Right Pump: Not all pumps work with all types of valves. Road bikes typically use Presta valves, which are skinnier and have a locknut at the top. You can open this by turning it counterclockwise. Get a pump compatible with this type of valve. 3. Prepare the Tyre: Unscrew the cap on the Presta valve, then unscrew the smaller top part of the valve so that air can flow freely. Most road bikes don’t use Schrader valves (which are similar to car tyre valves), but if yours does, you only need to remove the cap. 4. Attach the Pump: Push the pump head onto the valve and lock it on. Depending on the pump, you may need to screw it on...

To prepare your bike tires for inflation. first locate the valve. Typically. road bike tires use long. thin Prestaaa valves with a locking nut on top. Unscrew the top of the valve and switch it on to begin inflating. If your tire has a dust cap on the valve. remove it. Next. check the recommended PSI pounds per square inch for your tires. which can usually be found somewhere on the tire itself. Ensure that your pump is compatible with the Prestaaa valve before attaching it by placing the pump head over the valve and lifting the lever to seal and connect. Begin pumping and continue to monitor the pressure gauge until you reach the recommended level. Carefully remove the pump from the tire’s air door opening to prevent any air leakage. It is important to promptly secure the tire valve door by tightening the locking nut and replacing any valve covers if necessary. Repeat these steps for each tire. regularly checking air pressure to maintain control and prevent potential damage or le...
