1. Size: 16 x 1.75

  • This size specification means that the tire is 16 inches in diameter and 1.75 inches in width.
  • It is suitable for smaller bicycles or compact designs where a small-diameter tire is necessary.

2. PSI: 35

  • PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) is the recommended air pressure for inflating the tire.
  • A lower PSI rating like 35 PSI means that the tire provides a smoother ride on rougher terrains, as it has a bit more give compared to higher PSI-rated tires. This pressure also works well for urban commuting on compact bikes, providing a balance of comfort and grip.

3. Tread: HF-160A

  • The HF-160A tread pattern, also known as Slick III, is a smooth, slick tread with minimal patterning.
  • Designed primarily for road or paved surface riding, this tread offers low rolling resistance, which makes it easy to maintain speed and maneuver on smooth surfaces.
  • It is ideal for urban environments and offers decent grip on dry pavement.

4. Name: Slick III

  • "Slick III" is a line of Duro tires known for their streamlined, low-profile tread that prioritizes speed and ease of handling on smooth surfaces.

5. Bead: Wire

  • The wire bead construction is a strong, cost-effective design where a steel wire is integrated into the edge of the tire to hold it securely on the rim.
  • Although wire beads are typically heavier than folding beads (made with Kevlar or other flexible materials), they provide a reliable fit and are more affordable, making them popular for standard and everyday-use tires.

6. Style: Standard

  • This refers to the general-purpose style of the tire, suitable for everyday riding on city streets and paved paths.
  • Standard tires like these are designed for versatility, providing a stable and reliable ride on various smooth surfaces without specializing in off-road or high-speed racing applications.

7. Color: Black/White Side Wall

  • The main surface of the tire is black, while the sidewall (the portion of the tire that faces outward from the wheel) has a white stripe or section.
  • The black/white sidewall style gives the tire a classic, retro look and can visually enhance the bike’s appearance, especially on vintage-styled or urban commuter bikes.

8. Brand: Duro

  • Duro is a reputable manufacturer of tires for bicycles, scooters, and motorcycles, known for producing durable, budget-friendly, and versatile tire options.
  • They focus on creating tires that balance quality and cost-effectiveness, making them popular in various cycling markets.

9. ISO: 305

  • The ISO measurement (305) refers to the internal diameter of the tire (in millimeters), following the standardized system used for tire and rim compatibility.
  • An ISO of 305mm is common for 16-inch tires, ensuring the tire will fit correctly on a 16-inch rim.
