tyre got punctured vs bike tyre got punctured

Both phrases are correct, but the second one is more specific and provides additional information by mentioning the type of tyre (bike tyre). The first phrase is more general and could refer to any type of tyre. Depending on the context, either phrase could be used. (Note 'tyre' is the correct spelling for British English, while in the US 'tire' is the preferred form.)
