The wheel – a key element of your Riese & Müller electric bike, or any bike, in fact. Thought to have been invented in around 3,5000 BC, bike wheels were first used for zipping through the ancient streets on animal-led chariots, carrying local produce and, of course, their riders, who knew it was 100% the best way to get around. Not too dissimilar to the modern day use of a wheel then, when you think about it…
Riese & Müller electric bikes have become known in the industry for their high-quality products, and the wheels and tyres are a big part of that. Whether you’re after the speedy, nimble tyres or the big, fat, off-road types, Riese & Müller bikes can house them all.
Now of course, on any bike ride there’s always a chance of rolling over a thorn or a bit of glass and getting a day-ruining puncture. Luckily, tyre technology has come on leaps and bounds since the Roman times and inner tubes, paper patches and self-sealing ‘Slime’ are all a must-have for any cycling enthusiast.
With so many options available these days, sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. We put EDEMO’s Dan Radford to the test with a list of our most-asked questions on wheels and tyres. Watch the video below to learn more:
