Goatheads were the bane of my existence when my son began riding with his buddies on trails near our home. These liners did the trick. Kinda heavy but worth it.
I haven't gotten a flat since I installed these tire liners. I ride over broken glass almost everyday. My bike does seem a little more difficult to pedal though.
I was getting flats nearly every other ride earlier this year so I decided to try a set of Mr. Tuffys. They�re a little tricky to install (thanks YouTube) but I have had no flats since from the little bits of glass and metal shavings strewn all over NYC streets.
I had a problem with my winter tires. The studs some how were punturing my tubes . Mr Tuffy tire liners solved the problem. good to go !
If you ride in goathead country, and are tired of dealing with the mess of sealants like Slime, then, hello. I have been through countless goathead experiences. I have even taken tubes, cut off the valve stem, slit the tube on the innerside and used it as a shield between the tire carcass and the functioning tube filled with Slime, which makes your bike weigh a ton. No more folks! These babies are cleaner and lighter, and really work! Thank you Mr. Tuffy!
Upon installation, just place the still rolled-up Mr. Tuffy inside the tire carcass, and unroll it inside the tire, then insert the partially inflated tube to hold it in place.
Installed in my son's commuter bike - he swears by it. Easy to install and pretty light.
I've been using Mr. Tuffy's tire liners for quite a while with complete satisfaction. It's very rare that I'll get a flat when they're installed.
I do a lot of trail riding before I installed the tire liners I was prone to constant flat tires due to thorns, now I get none.. Great product, try it.
I was getting flat tires almost every day from the late summer goatheads in NM. Then I put in this tire liner and I haven't had a flat in months!
I've had my set of liners for three years now, and no flats. At least until I split a over-worn tire 15 miles from home. Despite the large hole in the middle of the tire, I replaced the tube and the Mr. Tuffy llner, and that got me home with just the liner between the road and the tube. Highly recommended if you hate flats.
I have been using liners for many years now and very rarely get flats. The additional weight of the liners are not that noticeable and the peace of mind far outweighs the 50g per wheel.
I have old Schwinn vintage bikes that have very limited tire selection. The tires do not have the new puncture resistance rubber so these liners are great so any glass will not give you a flat. I use these liners on all my bikes and ride about a 100 miles a week. Each time I have to dodge a broken glass field and other bikers just go pop and whistle as their tires go flat I have only had one flat with these liners from a large piece of glass after about 6000 miles. These liners will last for 3 or 4 tires so it is a small cost to prevent flats
I do mostly rides of 30 to 40 miles The last thing I want is flat and these liners cut the chances down a lot Rarely do a get a flat due to a puncture
Tough liner...easy to install and on all my bikes.
Will buy again.
I use these on all of my bikes....from grocery getter to mtb.....to ease my mind ,worrying about the dreaded flat.
Easy to fit and install....no having to cut to length cause they come in numerous sizes to choose from. Flexable yet strong along contact patch,no sharp edges to sand down or cut. Great product.
Put these in for winter riding and no flats so far on approx 1000km.
swear by mr tuffy for roadgravelmtn
lightweight protection keeps me from flatting
Run these on my rain bike for many years and, never had a flat tire.......yet.
Usually get six to eight flats a year. Decided to give the Tuffy's a try. So far no flats, have about 550 miles on them so far. I use them on my training bike where I am not concerned about weight. They are easy to install and have had no flats.
As doon as install got flat from thorn save your money don't buy worthless product bought for all three bikes not worth it still got thorn flat
