Tire Size x Maximum Width
Observe the Tire Size x Maximum Width for your bike found in the “Specifications” page of
this manual.
Mounting the wrong size tires can result in the tires hitting the fork or frame when riding. If this
happens, you can lose control of your bike and you can be thrown off. A moving tire can be
stopped because it touches the fork or frame.
Do not mount tires that are larger than the maximum recommended size. Such tires could contact
the fork, frame, saddle, seatpost, or seatbinder when the suspension is fully compressed or while
riding. Only select tires that are compatible with your bike’s fork and frame design. Also, be sure to
follow the manufacturer’s recommendations of your front fork and rear shock.
When you are considering tires for your bike consider...
The actual measured size of a tire may be different than its sidewall marking. Each time you
mount a new tire, take the time to inspect the actual clearance between the rotating tire and all
parts of the frame. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) requires at least 1/16”
(1.6 mm) tire clearance from any part of the bike. Allowing for lateral rim flex and a wheel or rim that
is out-of-true will likely mean choosing a rear tire that provides even more clearance than the
CPSC recommends.
Ask your authorized brand retailer for the right tires for your bike and its particular
components! You can be severely injured, paralyzed or killed in an accident if you ignore this
warning.
