About this deal

FAST ROLLING - Engineered to minimise rolling-resistance (drag), Tannus Armour provides the ultimate balance of speed and protection."

Your comment about Kevlar: If it can stop bullets, it can stop thorns. is incorrect. Kevlar is a fabric, thorns can separate the fibers and penetrate, this is why an arrow can kill someone wearing a Kevlar vest unless it’s stab rated, and kevlar in tires are not stab rated. Tell us what the product is for and who it's aimed at. What do the manufacturers say about it? How does that compare to your own feelings about it?

Tubeless tires have won-out against their tubed counterparts in mountain biking but that doesn’t mean that it’s the perfect system. Not only is it vulnerable to the possibility of burping the air out of the tire at high load or while cornering, it also needs to be a system that keeps damage and destruction at bay while withstanding a whole variety of different forces and abrasions.

For the price, they are one of the few products that don’t wear out. Insert them into both wheels, and you will be safe from thorns and it won’t affect your tyre pressure or ride of the bike. They have proved an ideal solution.

Traditional and ETRTO sizing

I was constantly getting punctures all the time, even when I was using something like slime in the inner tubes. Tannus Armour can easily be changed to new tyres and wheels, the polymer compound lasts a long time and does not degrade over time, and can also be fully recycled when no longer needed. Free yourself of worry Take your time getting it seated, then put a little bit of air in your tube and seat that within the Tyre Armour. Finally, mount and inflate the tyre, as usual. Ultimately, the Tannus inserts not only offer improved defence against punctures, they also deliver a more compliant ride. They're a good option for commuting/utility e-bikes, where fixing a flat can be more involved because of weight and complication. That said, I would prioritise a tyre and rim tape upgrade over these if you were running budget tyres and flatting frequently. Verdict

Tubeless tires also don't work with the very best of rims that have double eyelets. Thus, with tubeless tires one can only use unreliable and/or needlessly heavy rims because double eyelets are needed in rims to distribute spoke tension across both the inner and the outer walls. FLATBIKE ASSESSMENT: Hmmm. That’s…different. Can we still afford the rest of the bike? And do we have to clean the insides of the tires after a ride? Brilliant re-use of a spent tire. This is definitely the ultimate low-cost solution! As for performance at speed–not a homeless concern–I’m tempted to try this sometime to test the effect of tire deflection. which would provide a very tough armor like additional layer of goathead thorn tire puncture protection also as well, that would act like a nearly impenetrable stainless steel mesh tire armor shielding belt; I think the MegaNorris does have its place and it does offer excellent stability in turns. This is the insert for somebody that rides hard, corners harder and isn’t particularly worried about feel or how it copes with rough choppy terrain. There are lots of people who ride high-load berms and want something very secure that will stop their tire squirming and rolling over, this could well be that option.However, you don’t have to remove the wheel, but it is better to take the whole wheel off and do it properly. For a while, before my thorn-resistant tires, I rode a 1980’s technology, solid rubber tire. Potholes were memorable on my spine, but traction was good and I never got a flat. It feels like far more of a system. It’s not something to be used with your normal pressures but rather in conjunction with the lower pressures enabled by running the insert. The grip was fantastic. The firmer feeling is not dissimilar to running a heavier compression tune. It thudded through everything it came across and it felt amazing. It rewards you the more you push and I consider it to be a performance product aimed at people who don’t merely want to protect their rims from occasional impacts, but rather people who need inserts to enable them to run lower pressures without them immediately breaking wheels. U Can’t touch This! Tubes are defended by a tough 360 degree layer from Broken Glass, Drawing Pins or Nails and other road debris.
