@fejwe 5 ай бұрын

I've had a set of blues waiting for the right rig, but based on this it looks like that'll be my Vanquish. Also have some greens coming and some Swamp Claws, thinking they might work with a Zoku basecamp--I don't really have anything light, but that's the current lightest. Also finally got some fridge foam so I can help inserts stay in, but also make Canyon Softs--I'm interested to test them next to each other. I'm also considering getting a set of reds--we mostly trail and a heavy truck cuts through brush and leaves way better than a light one, so I have a bunch of heavy trucks. A cut red might be the right foam for a brassed-out Defender. I'd like to see that tested if you have someone heavy enough to make it worthwhile. I'm curious to see how long these last--them breaking in seems awesome, but I'd be worried they'll get too soft after too much use--5 minutes is a small break-in, so I worry what weeks of use will do to them. Though given the price it probably doesn't matter too much, they'll be very replaceable--the price is in the same general area of Canyon Mediums, which I run on almost every rig now.

great video , loads of information . I think this is my first visit to your channel and i like it so far , i watched this because i just bought a set of the green inserts, and im stoked to see how they perform.. my only remaining question from watching this is: are the blues or greens softer? i must have missed it due to being half asleep and under caffeinated .. lol Thanks!

@CrawlerCanyon 5 ай бұрын

The greens definitely start off softer-- but the uncut set of blues I have here are starting to get REAL soft, so I'm starting to think that the break-in on these is longer than initially thought. Like... will they stop getting softer?

@JIPPERR_1 5 ай бұрын

I don't know man I'm curious to see what the reds would be like. I dont think theyd be better but how much worse would they be?? These silicone style inserts seem so tuneable and like you outlined in previous vids its so easy to describe how to tune by cutting out certain parts. Not sure if id rather tune a harder insert by cutting or a softer insert by adding foam inside the cells to stiffen them up. Gotta wonder how much more potential is in these inserts. Great work as always canyon man. I'll send you a set of the reds if your crazy enough to test them. 👍👌🤙🥳

@CrawlerCanyon 5 ай бұрын

I think you could probably tune the reds down into the 10-11lb range by cutting them up. So there's still a use for them... maybe. I can't imagine running them unmodified. Though these is a channel I've seen a bit of where I guy welds up his own box frame chassis, and his rigs all seem to be 10lbs+ (and I think I saw one that was 18lbs), so maybe that guy is killin' it on reds.

@lastcreations8845 5 ай бұрын

greens ! nice. run slick again on baseline on the greens after the little run time on them. lighter weight rig might take longer seat in time, curious how long it takes for them to be at the blue feel, and long term will be better. best performance from the landmines for sure, what is the rig weight with the greens? think it was like 6.3lbs before w body. also what does a green insert alone weigh ? too early to tell but, CUT greens 2.5kg or less, single or triple cut. great first test of greens

I just got all 3 versions of the Injora silicone inserts. I’m going to test each set on various tires on different weighted rigs. I haven’t put them on a truck yet, but I do have them in some different tires, different compounds and what not. What I’ve seen with each insert and on each different tire they’re in, just by squeezing them or simulating them collapsing on the footprint or ground contact point, I noticed the rest of the tire ballooned out. Not horrible on the harder compounds, but noticeable. The super soft tire compound tire, it was really noticeable. Would venting the tires prevent this and if so, where should I vent the tires?

@CrawlerCanyon 5 ай бұрын

All tires should be vented. Leather punch, 4mm holes at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions. For 2.2s I do four holes at 12, 3, 6, and 9.
