Using this WTB Byway tire is easy. First, make sure your bike's rim is compatible with tubeless tires. If you're converting from a tube setup, remove the tube and clean the rim thoroughly. Then, install the tire onto the rim and add sealant as recommended. When riding, you'll enjoy a smooth experience on both gravel and pavement. On gravel, the diamond - shaped peaks and side knobs will keep you stable. On pavement, the slick centerline will let you roll fast. As for maintenance, check the tire pressure regularly, especially before long rides. Keep an eye out for any cuts or damage to the tread and sidewall. If you get a small puncture, the sealant should usually take care of it. But if there's major damage, it might be time to replace the tire. Also, store the tire in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan.
