 Jones Bicycles - All About Bicycle Tires
While traction, handling and control are essential, tires must also resist punctures; offer good wear; withstand sunshine, ozone and rain; and survive the abuse of striking potholes, debris, steel grates, stones, and in the case of off-road rubber, far worse.
Tip: While the tires on a bicycle that's been stored for a month or more will probably be flat or very soft, it doesn't mean you need new tubes or tires.
Tubes (which are inside tires and hold the air) lose air naturally over time, so in most cases, assuming the tires haven't decayed, you can simply inflate the tires and the bike will be ready to ride.
