Stiff sidewall,

Kevlar Guard protection against punctures.

With integrated suspension: BIG APPLE introduced the Balloonbike trend in 2001, establishing the concept of comfort without expensive technology. At the time, the idea was revolutionary. Since then, the trend has largely been confirmed, and there is now a wide range of Balloonbikes around BIG APPLE.

KevlarGuard: Protection made of Kevlar. It is more durable and therefore safer. The material is significantly more elastic and has low rolling resistance.

Balloonbike: the concept. Balloonbikes are equipped with specially wide tires. They have a natural damping effect that avoids the need for an often expensive suspension fork. Tests by the Cologne University of Applied Sciences clearly show that Balloonbikes have comfort properties that are completely equivalent to those of bikes with suspension. Particularly efficient, the amortization is immediately ready for use, which is a real advantage in everyday life. This way, the bike remains light and especially easy to handle without elaborate technology.

Recommendations: For your comfort and safety, we recommend inflating the tire to a pressure of 1.5 to 2.5 bar, depending on the cross-section and load. At this pressure level, efficiency and damping are maximized. In comparison, a city or trekking bike with 37 mm profile tires only achieves similar rolling resistance values at a pressure of 4 bar.
