In a pneumatic tire mountable on a 5°-tapered rim, a bottom of a bead core is inclined from 0°-5° in a direction in which the bottom diverges toward an outer side in a radial direction as the bottom extends from an inner side in the width direction toward an outer side in the width direction. Each bead portion includes a base, a toe, and a heel. The base is inclined from 8°-12° in a direction in which the bead base portion diverges toward the outer side in the radial direction as the base extends from the inner side toward the outer side in the width direction. The heel has a radius of curvature from 25-30 mm. A rim cushion rubber has a modulus at 100% elongation within a range from 5.0-8.0 MPa. The toe has a displacement between before and after mounting on the rim from 9.0-13.5 mm.

The invention relates to a two-wheeled vehicle pneumatic tire (1), preferably bicycle tire, particularly preferably racing bike tire (1), having a tread (2), a tire carcass, tire side walls (3) and two bead regions (4), each with a tire bead with a core (5), wherein the tire carcass comprises two carcass inlays (6,6′) wherein the two carcass inlays (6, 6′) extend from a zenith region (17) of the two-wheeled vehicle pneumatic tire (1) over the tire side walls (3) as far as the two bead regions (4) and are looped there around the respective core (5) from axially on the inside axially outward and end with carcass inlay ends (7,7′) and wherein the two bead regions (4) each have a bead protective strip (8) arranged on the carcass from the outside as protection against chafing.

The problem addressed is that of improving the rolling resistance.

The problem is solved in that the carcass inlay ends (7′) of the inner carcass inlay (6′) are covered from the outside by the respective bead protective strip (8), wherein the inner carcass inlay (6′) is formed by that carcass inlay of the two carcass inlays (6, 6′) which is the radially inner carcass inlay in the zenith region (17).
