What tyres are recommended for cycling in Tasmania?

Tyre choice depends on which Tasmania tour you're joining.

For our Tour de Tassie and Grupetto Tours, a quality road bike fitted with 28–32 mm tyres is ideal. These provide excellent comfort on Tasmania's quiet roads while comfortably handling the occasional champagne gravel section.

For our Cross Tassie Gravel Adventure and East Coast Gravel Adventure, we recommend a gravel specific bike fitted with tyres between 40–45 mm. This width offers an excellent balance of comfort, grip and efficiency across Tasmania's varied gravel surfaces.

If you're hiring one of our premium rental bikes, everything will already be set up for the tour you've chosen.
