Default Replacing tires, mountain bike

Kathy wrote:
I inherited a mountain bike from my son (Raleigh Teton 1986) and I would
like to

be able to use it just for exercising in the street (concrete, asphalt and
occasionally

gravel) and I need to replace the worn tires. The ones that I found seem to
have rough

treading for rough terrain but I would prefer tires that give me a smooth
ride.

Could I replace the originals with a set of tires that are a bit smother?

By the way, the tire are 26 x 2.125

Any suggestion where could I get them? Online or I am in South Florida.



Thank you in advance



Kathy


The amount of air you put in the tires controls the ride much more than
the tread design. You can get the tires at Target or Wal-Mart.
