Definitely going to leave these out in the sun before i try to put them on lol

It's quite obvious that professional installation is worth every penny! Thanks for posting.

Thanks for sharing!! I like the way you say it's wrestling match when putting on the tire. I just did one on my Brompton front wheel. Thanks!

I have been using the 700C on my ICE VTX and it has been excellent. I trike on suburban roads in an area where new homes are going up and there is road work putting in network cables, so bits of road schmutz are encounter daily, it is such a nice feeling to run over that stuff and not have to worry about that back tire going flat. I put on the extra firm and I am glad I picked that hardness. I have about 1000 miles on it and it shows very little wear. Tannus claims it should go around 4-5 thousand miles and I believe it will.

Excellent video! 'Build up these muscles at the same time. Have you thought of trying them on all wheels? Happy trails!

Nice! I’d be swearing under my breath for sure. This concept is neat so appreciate the review. I cannot swap out a tube in 5 minutes personally and don’t enjoy the task very much. Might give these a try on my errand bike.

I’d be tempted to fill a tub with hot water to soften these up. Periodically rolling the tire/rim through the water to reheat during installation, maybe a towel or gloves if uncomfortable to handle.

I have ridden (briefly) airless tires in a road bike size from a different vendor many years ago. Maybe these are better but I doubt it. I personally would recommend the Tannus Liner if you are having flat issues. I use one on my 29" x 2.5" trekking bike in parallel with a simple Kevlar strip and have never had a flat since. If you use a Kevlar strip, place it between tire and Tannus, not next to tube or it might cut tube. The big thing is that the tube is still there to provide smooth and efficient rolling resistance and mitigates the road vibration. I also place a large quantity of PTFE powder on the inside of the tire to minimize internal friction. Wheel pressure is ~40 psi.

Brilliant video

We mexico has thorns everywhere and each week I patch Three tires for my kids!

Excellent video. I've spent over 600 euros on converting to tubeless tires and tubeless ready wheels. All failed with my vintage frame. Hopefully this will work.

ir doesnt matter what society or in a bike community says abt these tires for me these tires serves its true purpose and make u stress free abt flats

I own a Catrike Dumont and the first time out I had to go to a bike shop to get a different rear wheel that was more aggressive, so do they have a aggressive tread? I got off into the grass and sat and spun my tire and that's why I got a new tire.

I had been getting flats all the time. The best thing I found for myself is Mr. Tuffy tire liners. After putting them in I have not gotten any flats in over a year now.

I'm about 2 stone over my ideal weight, i don't drive, and live in a semi-rural area. I use my bike for groceries shopping, riding on a mainly gravel canal towpath. I've been driven crazy this year, getting rear tyre flats on nearly a weekly basis. Poor quality puncture kits (patches failing) mainly, but a fit-and-forget solid rear tyre might be great for me?

I installed these at night with porch light slippery hands in less than thirty mins. It's easy to do BUT you GOTTA do it INCH BY Inch don't try to wedge the whole thing on in one go. You need to treat it light a really tight wheel and you need to hold onto the opposite side to stop it from slipping

I have this Tannus aither 1.1 … perfect 🍀🍀🍀✌️😜✌️🍀🍀🍀 for normal driving perfect 👍

Just ordered some of these. Cannot wait to be able to just jump on my bike without having to pray to God that i don't have a flat. I used to pack up all my gear for the ride and have my camelback ready to go. Jump on my bike to find out it has a flat ruining the whole plan. Hope to solve this with these tires.

I will just take mine to a bicycle shop and let them install mine. Beats bending a rim after, finally getting discussed and throwing it out into the street 😂😂😂

Rubber products tend to expand and contract with heat and cold. I wonder if you can soften that tire / tube with heating it with like a hair dryer as you work it around the rim. The momentary expansion from the direct heat should help to soften it up enough get it in once you have gone as far as you can cold. I wouldn't worry to much about making sure the plugs snap in until the tire has cooled down and then you can go back around the tire pressing from the top to make sure you have good contact with the rim, it's not like it's going to go any where as tight as it seems to be. Just a suggestion as I'm sure that by now you have probably thought of it yourself.

Is some Tannus Tires better than others.What's the best Tannus bike tires.I have a Pace Aventon 500 ??

I'm considering these. However, they would be replacing 26 x 1.95 tires. There are none of these in that size. Neither do I know the internal rim width nor am I interested in dismounting anything before necessary to measure it. Calipers went onto my next shopping list.

What happens after 5k miles? Hopefully the tire doesn't tear thru the pins and roll off the rim, that might get ugly.

You might be able to get it easier to install if you use a machine to stretch the tire rather than doing it by hand. Plus when it gets to actually installing it on the rim use a machine like that process that they use to get regular car tires on and off the rims. Maybe using a powder such as corn starch will help you with slipping it on.

it's been more than a year now. How are these tires working out for you?

I'm hoping I can get solid tyres for my Alpine Explorer ETRIKE from Alpine Bikes here in The U.K. 20 Inch Tires and 4 inch wide. Anybody know where I can get this done in Fife, Scotland, U.K.?

I realize this video was created/posted over a year ago, but I'd like to know if you had a chance (or received customer feedback) on traction characteristics with that tire. Does it grip as well as the tube tire it replaced on wet or gravel surfaces? How additional weight does that tire add? Did you subject yourself to the removal exercise? ;)

Can u put tannus armour insert into a scwabable marathon plus?

I would love to have some but nobody makes 20×4 airless tubes, can't understand why, that's a common 20" ebike tire size

coulda used some soapy water all over it. The side you mount first gets stuck by friction. it unable to stretch to accommodate the rest of the tire.

Do you know if they make 20 X 4 .00 fat tires? That’s what my e-bike takes.

I’m getting a pair of these for my grandsons training wheel bike. I should have said his my grandsons father.

Overall a good review other than the fact that much of the time the camera wasn't aimed on the tire itself so we had a hard time seeing just what you were doing.

I would pay to have them installed rather than trying to do it myself.

hi they were out 20 years ago i had one they started ot up set the back wheel and the wheel was coming un true because they were to hard ace on heavy e bikes the only place for them

Nice ❤

From 🇸🇪 How does it hold up in winter riding? Any one?

flexible as a snake, have you tried foam tube inside an outside wheel. foam should act like air inner tire. it should be elastic to restore the original form after compression.

Do they come in black and can you buy more chunky ones for offroad?

Um how much weight can they support? Ive been using bike tubes all my life & im tired of my weight popping them

I've used this on my my back tire it lasted 3 weeks and then I got another flat it's so frustrating no one knows where to get a solid tire or anything to help.

I recomendate mouting this tyres in 26 C degree or above temperature, then tyres is more soft

I have a 29 inch schwinn mountain bike, do you have any for that bike?

I used Chinese solid tyres which are fine as tannus tyres are £60 and the Chinese ones are £11 👍

Maybe is good idea to let the tyres sit in warm water for 10min or so. 😉

why not a rubber like tire? i bet they can get better grip and be more efficient, soft tires lead to inneffincy on pedal to ground power transfer.

Now do a video on changing the Tannus tire ..

The future

Need to make them for fat tire bikes.

Do you guys sell these at your store?

Smidge is a short form of Smidgen Dictionary Marriam Webster a small amount : a bit, smidgen of salt

Inflict my will upon it 🤣🤣🤣OMG I almost died! Lol!

I think I will pay the $20 for the mounting tool😮

When all else fail reread instructions 😁

Now let's hope you don't have to change a spoke.

Are those a good choice for ebikes?

I wonder if on a gas bicycle will the tire roll when hitting the brakes to stop , seems like a dangerous red tire,seems like KZfaqrs are smarter than the upgraders of technology Dese days

👍🇧🇷🚴‍♂️🇧🇷

These tires do not handle high RPM very well like going very fast downhill or anything it's like riding on ice they want to separate from the rim every version of them that I've ever had always ends up being more like a soft plastic rather than a rubber they're still slick you might as well be using bald tires they give you little to no traction and they chip away too easily Pieces come off of them they're okay for extremely slow speeds like Wheelchairs and maybe a child's bike but I don't think they've gotten there with the technology yet these things suck I've tried multiple the only version of a solid Tire I have found that works was actually just a regular Tire filled with liquid silicone that then cured inside the tire I don't know who made it I couldn't find any information on it but it came on a wheelchair it was a regular bicycle tire I think it was homemade I don't know but that concept seems to be good because you get all the grip and traction of the outside Tire it just seems like a more expensive method though since it wouldn't last as long

Beach bed on wheels

Does not look easy !

Looks like ut never happen with my spaghetti hands

use 2 levers man. my goodness

Do they really expect us to buy and use those? I can change a tube with zero stress and strain in 5 minutes. You worked awfully hard to do a great video and were very successfully in convincing me never to use them. I just changed my Schwalbe Marathons on my 559. At 5000 miles. Took a few minutes and zero effort.

The riding no good it has bumping. And it uses a lot of electric more than the inflated tire

Yeah, I see me NEVER doing this. Life is too short for this nonsense.

bullshit, you never showed you putting the tire on the rim, you probably took it to a shop

Does not look easy !
