FAQs

What is the recommended sealant for this tire?

We recommend using Conti RevoSealant for optimal performance and sealing.

What is the maximum inflation pressure?

The maximum inflation pressure depends on the rim type (hooked or hookless) and is indicated on the tire packaging.

How often should I check the tire pressure?

Check the tire pressure before each ride to ensure optimal performance and safety.

What is the lifespan of the tire?

The lifespan depends on riding conditions, surface, and rider weight. Regularly inspect the tire for wear and tear.

Can I use this tire with tubes?

While the tire is designed for tubeless use, you can use it with tubes. However, the benefits of tubeless (reduced rolling resistance and puncture protection) will be lost.

How do I clean my tires?

Clean the tires with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.

What is the warranty?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information for details on coverage and terms.

Troubleshooting

Tire is losing air after initial setup.

Ensure the tire is properly seated on the rim and that the sealant is adequately distributed. Check the valve core for tightness and re-inflate.

Poor grip in wet conditions.

Ensure the tire pressure is appropriate for the road conditions. Check for any debris or contaminants on the tire surface. Consider adjusting your riding style to compensate for wet conditions.

Difficult to mount the tire.

Use tire levers and ensure the tire bead is properly seated in the rim channel. Lubricate the tire bead with soapy water to ease installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The tire is Tubeless Ready and compatible with both hookless and hooked rims. Refer to the tire packaging for the maximum inflation pressure and inner rim width.

Care: Inspect the tires regularly for cuts or wear. Clean the tires with mild soap and water. Ensure the tires are stored away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
