What does the tire tread do? On a normal, smooth road, the tread has only limited influence on the riding properties. The grip generated by the tire on the road is almost exclusively the result of the rubber compound. Unlike a car, a bicycle will not aquaplane. The contact area is much smaller and the contact pressure is much higher.
The tireâs tread is the portion of the tire that is meant to meet the road. Whenever possible, try to inspect the tread during daylight, or in a well-lit area. Having a penny on hand is usually advised when inspecting oneâs tread, as it provides a quick and easy method for determining a treadâs condition.
