Quick MTB tyre question

Ok I know nothing about MTB but am doing someone a favour by stripping It down cleaning and rebuilding, it needs a few bits sorting which is fine.

But the tyres are puzzling me as no one seems to have them in stock(wiggle etc) they are
26x2.10 (54-559). Now I thought stick that in a search box and there will be hundreds... But no... So is it just an older uncommon size? What should I stick on it instead.

Thanks

Many places will have these in stock. 26x2.1 means 26" diameter (standard mtb size) and then 2.1" width (again, very common).

How much are you looking to spend?

Try: Panaracer Tyre

If it was a 2.1 on there previously, you will be fine with anything from a 1.95 - 2.25 width.

Good luck!

It's a 26" tire - standard MTB - in 2.1" width. Par exemple; http://www.wiggle.co.uk/geax-mezcal-tnt-mtb-folding-tyre/

That's just a random tire, not an endorsement.

Ooh, slightly faster and slightly more helpful. You're good. Real good.

it just means 2.1"

but in MTB world 2.1" can vary in size dramatically between manufacturers as they measure them in different ways + market hype.

For a general smaller mtb tyre that rolls fairly quickly, has ok puncture protection and doesn't weigh/ cost the earth, look at conti verticals or the swalbe equivilent (can't remember the name, simon?). cost about £12 a piece.

Thanks all that's perfect.

Was weird as the 26 x 2.1 I saw all seemed to be 0 quantity or discontinued but all worded now.
