When training on rollers, or turbo trainers, the Hometrainer II is the perfect choice for your bike. It's far quieter than standard tyres and uses a harder compound for increased service life. Not suitable for outdoor use.
Description
Thanks to its special cold-running compound the Hometrainer II does not experience the heat build up of a road tyre nor does it suffer the tread separation that the road tyre is prone to under the special loads occurring when cycling and braking on the roller's revolving drums.
The Hometrainer II has been designed explicitly for rollers and is not suitable for on-road use.

It’s a training tyre and it folds. Great product!Bought this for my Dad’s 84th birthday, to use on his old mountain bike with his new turbo trainer. Works a treat. He’s very pleased with it.

Silent, smooth and durable (so far...)Lets start with the normal MTB tire: it's threaded and the ruber is intended to roll at much lower temperatures than the ones you may reach in a home trainer.
By being slick, this Contis are much more silent and and smooth than the standard MTB tires in the home trainer - you'll almost not hear it and you definitly won't feel it, as it doesn't have the threaded sufarce to cause vibration. So far, I've done about 500km in the home trainer with them and they only have a small wear mark in the contact patch.
I don't understand the use of the word 'folding' here.
Do they mean it just folds over and fits into a small package for shipping, or does folding refer to some kind of special design feature..?
Thanks.
Asked by: UniqueNickname2
This folding means that they can be folded to fit in a small package for shipping or storage.

26x1.6
Hi Wiggle,
Will this fit on my wheel? The current tyre is 26 x 1.6 (41-559)
Cheers
Asked by: Roopert
The Continental Hometrainer tyre will fit your wheels with no issue, they will just be a little wider than your current tyres. Hope this helps.

Asked by: Jt24
You need a road wheel specific trainer tyre, Vittoria do decent ones. I use Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Home Trainer Tyre 700 x 23.

Can you use this on a road bike wheel (set up on a turbo)?
Asked by: LucyUK
This tyre is specific to MTB wheels, probably not. You would need a road version.
