Abstract:
In an aspect, a tire for use with a single wheel, self-balancing vehicle is provided. The tire has a tire body with a tread configured for engagement with a ground surface. The tread has a lateral profile having a central region, a first lateral region tapering towards a first lateral side of the tire, and a second lateral region tapering towards a second lateral side of the tire. The lateral profile is substantially free of discontinuity. The tread has a non-directional tread groove arrangement that is asymmetrical about a central circumference line of the tire. The tire has a hardness selected to substantially prevent deformation of the first profile and the second profile during riding by a rider.

Claim (Index 1):
A tire for use with a single wheel, self-balancing vehicle that has a platform, wherein the tire has a tire body with a tread configured for engagement with a ground surface,\n the tread having a lateral profile having a central region, a first lateral region tapering towards a first lateral side of the tire, and a second lateral region tapering towards a second lateral side of the tire, wherein the lateral profile is substantially free of discontinuity, when the platform and the ground surface are level horizontally, a contact patch between the tire and the travel surface extends along a width of the central region, the tread having a tread groove arrangement that is asymmetrical about a central circumference line of the tire, the tire having a hardness selected to substantially prevent deformation of the first profile and the second profile during riding by a rider, wherein the tread groove arrangement comprises a first pattern of grooves on a first side of and adjacent the central circumference line and a second pattern of grooves on a second side of and adjacent the central circumference line, wherein the first pattern of grooves includes a plurality of first lateral grooves each of which extends from the central circumference line continuously laterally through the central region into the first lateral region, wherein the second pattern of grooves includes a plurality of second lateral grooves each of which extends from the central circumference line continuously laterally through the central region into the first lateral region, and wherein the first lateral grooves are circumferentially off-phase from the second lateral grooves.
