I hit a pothole or a pole. I don’t know it was dark, but my tire never went flat. I drove 3 miles home looked at it and I couldn’t believe it. These things are a must have. These are so worth it.if you hate having to change a tire like me you will want theses.I went 900 miles on my E bike with not one flat before I got one at least every 100 miles.

Like others said, you gotta muscle these in..my biggest hangup was holding the liner back from blocking the valve stem hole while simultaneously shoving valve stem thru the hole. 45 second install is laughable, more like 45 minutes. I also used Flat Out in the innertubes. More to follow on performance.

I installed the Tannus Armour tire insert on my electric bike and it's been a huge improvement. Installation was easy and took about 30 minutes per wheel.The ride is smoother and more responsive, and I've had no punctures since installation. The insert absorbs bumps and vibrations, making for a more comfortable ride.I highly recommend the Tannus Armour tire insert to anyone looking to enhance their bike riding experience.

This insert has performed very well in the month I’ve had it. In the 6 months I’ve had my bike I’ve had at least 7 flats and most were from little pieces of metal from the street cleaners bristles and small glass shards. All would barely break through the tire but with the weight on the back tire they’d cause a flat. Always the back; insert angry face!!The second day it was in I pulled a staple that went straight into the tire out and the day after that a 3/4” finishing nail that went in at a slight angle. Neither punctured the tube and what I would’ve spent on replacement tubes has already covered a decent portion of the cost of this. I can still find glass shards and fine metal pieces but I’ve stopped even looking after seeing it take the nail and not go flat.I’ve seen reviews about this not having instructions and that’s wrong. They’re literally embossed on the side of the insert. It’s a few simple steps; deflate tube, clean insert, put insert into tire, tire on bike, re-inflate. But honestly if you need more that that you probably shouldn’t be working on your own bike imho. The only thing that wasn’t stated was that you may have to trim this if your size falls within a range like mine 3-4” insert for a 3” tire, but that’s kinda common sense and if you held the insert against your tire without trimming you’d see it’s way over sized. For this I put the whole insert into the tire, traced where it touched the edge of the tire and then cut 1/8” inside that line to give the tire bead space to seat in the rim. Like magic the amount I cut off was very close to 1”Lastly I’d like to point out something about sizing. The 20x3” tube I first put on which is my bikes size was too big. I felt this as I put it on. There’s just too much rubber when this insert takes up 1/3 of the space in the tire. I did my best to stretch it out and have it fit smoothly in the tire but there seemed to always be a spot it bunched. Plus I couldn’t really pump more than 20psi into the tire despite the bike calling for a min of 24. I should’ve trusted my instincts but recall reading another review saying someone was a clown for saying you need to size the tube down. Well last week I got a flat, was still able to ride to a safe place to change as the insert doesn’t put your rim on the road and the flat was caused by a small pinch in the tube. Not even against the rim just a tiny fold in the center of the tube where it sat in the insert. I got the next partial size tube smaller; 2.75-3.3” and it fits much better and took the correct psi.

My ebike has 20x4 tire and I've had three Flats on the rear. A bit of research later an I picked up some Tannus Armour and some Slimed. I installed it on my rear tire in under an hour, not too hard if you follow the instructions, and so far so good after 3 weeks.

Ok so its 10/28/23 here in the Chicagoland area. I recently purchased ( 2 ) of these for my fat bike . Buyer beware , your current tubes will not work . I went with the recommended 26x3.0 tubes & they worked splendidly. Now onto the install . I researched the fat bike install on YouTube, I watched 4 different installs . The Tannus armor official website says to trim them PRIOR to install and use baby powder , I personally did NOT do either. I figured I'd attempt to install them without a trim because I'm paying for 100% protection. I want 100% protection, worst-case scenario, I'd pop them out and trim them down if need be . Thankfully I didn't. Lets fast-forward the basics and go to install , I pumped about 3 or 4 pounds into the tube before I installed tubes into armor , line up the stem properly and install the first part into the rim. I was certain to push the armor back the the back of the rim , it makes for a smoother install for remaining tube/armor . Constantly watching to see that the tube or armor are not kinked or twisted or you'll have waddle ( unbalanced armor/tube ) . Once you have the tire on both sides of rim , set the tire down on the ground and roll it 10 or 15 feet ( prior to pumping remaining air pressure ) . Once you feel comfortable with this. Pump a few pounds and STOP ! Check ✔ both sides of the rim thoroughly on the bead to make certain there's no bulging. Then proceed to fill tire to recommended capacity. ( My fat tires say 20 lbs. Max ) I'm a big guy ( 6' 240 lbs. ) so I'm going with 20lbs. A short test run is recommended before any serious riding . Check both tires again thoroughly after. I read multiple reviews on these installs here on Amazon, one bloke said he was a retired engineer and he spent hours attempting to install these , finally took his bike to a bike shop. I was a bit perplexed by this. So I did MY own research. Its not rocket science, doesn't take any special skills or fancy tools aside from the usual tools needed to change a tire. Takes a bit of patience and a little elbow grease. I hope this review helps you. And PLEASE don't trim down & throw away good money if you don't have to. Good luck and be safe out there 🙏... P.S. the total time for both tires took me less than an hour. That's popping them off the bike , breakdown & reinstall. * UPDATE * It's now 12/23/23 . I have successfully ridden over 1500 miles on the Tannus Armor & ZERO flats ! I'm a daily commuter who rides in rain & snow . I have hit some pretty gnarly holes and bumps on the trails and the pavement and I've not had a single issue .

For £134 i expected to get x2 of the 26x4" armor, unfortunatly i was wrong and only 1 turned up, have spoken to tannus uk and the price for the 26" armor is £50 per item, trying to return the item isnt the best either, they require you to pay for return shipping which for the price is mad.avoid at all costs!!!!!!!!

I purchased one insert as a trial since reviews were mixed as to how easy it would be to fit and what the ride would be like. In the event the fit was easy with my Schwalbe Smart Sam, Active, 2.60 tyres. Riding on the road I noticed no difference; over roots,, etc. it feels more comfortable. I've consequently ordered a second.
