It comes in a 27.5 x 2.25 size, with a black/dark tan color. The ISO width is 57mm, and the ISO diameter is 584 / 650b / 27.5'. It has sidewall flat protection, is a tubeless ready clincher with a 60 TPI, a 27.5' tire diameter, and a folding tire bead.
Using your Ardent mountain bike tire is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly installed on your 27.5 - inch rims. Since it's tubeless ready, you can set it up without an inner tube for better performance. When riding, the tire will handle well on different terrains like loose soil, hard - packed ground with a loose top layer, medium - density surfaces, and wet trails. Just be aware that on extremely sharp rocks, the sidewall protection can only do so much, so try to avoid direct impacts. For maintenance, regularly check the tire pressure to ensure optimal performance. Clean the tire after each ride, especially if you've been in muddy or dirty conditions. Use a mild soap and water to get rid of any debris. If you notice any cuts or excessive wear, it might be time to replace the tire.
