The Elops 520 has 28-inch wheels with a single-wall rim and raw aluminium spokes. To protect your spokes and avoid flat tyres, we recommend inflating your tyres to a pressure between 3.5 and 4.5 bars. And to prevent the risk of theft during your activities in town, the wheel is attached with a locknut hub.
Tires
"We chose very wide tyres (45mm) so that you can ride comfortably in town: a smooth rolling bike that can easily drive over small obstacles along the way. Not even cobblestones, sewer drains, potholes, or tramway rails can make you lose your balance! Inner tubes are equipped with car valves: you can inflate your tires at a service station. To avoid flat tires, we recommend keeping your tyres at a constant pressure between 3.5 and 4.5 bars (depending on your weight)
