Grippy Brompton Tires for Everyday City Riding
Continental Contact tires in Brompton’s 16 x 1.35 (35-349) size give your folding bike a clear upgrade in feel and control over stock rubber. They’re sticky and predictable in corners, with a smooth, fast-rolling tread that suits city streets, paths, and mixed pavement.
Designed specifically to fit all Brompton models, these tires mount easily and clear the frame and fenders without drama. They’re lighter and more supple than heavy-duty touring options like the Schwalbe Marathon, trading a bit of bombproof flat protection for a livelier, more responsive ride.
Design That Works
- Exact 16 x 1.35 (35-349) sizing for a clean fit on any Brompton, including Brompton Electric.
- Sticky tread and quality Continental rubber for confident grip in dry and wet conditions.
- Lighter and easier to install than full-armor commuting tires, so the bike feels quicker off the line.
- Available with a folding bead for lower weight and a more supple ride, or a wire bead for maximum value.
- Pairs well with everyday city use, commuting, and light touring where ride quality matters.
