Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Enhance Your Bicycle's Durability with Mr. Tuffy Tire Liner: A Key for Flat-Free Rides by Eric Weber

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No flats in 6000 miles, but lots of flats

While the next review was for regular weight liners, I haven't had any flats on the Ultra Lites either. Will update the mileage increases. So far so good. Did Cross Florida twice (167 miles) with no punctures but to be honest the tires looked really good afterwards so I'm not sure the liners passed the test. Will be updated as mileage increases. Update: 1230 miles no problem. I got pinched by hitting something on the road, but the holes (yes, 2!) were caused by the spoke holes through the rim tape. I used to see a pretty good cut on the tire and when I checked Mr. Tuffy's liner I saw where something had punctured and deformed it but there was no hole in the liner or tube so it was definitely flat which I think based on the liner did not get . I'm removing tires and tubes this week (6-22) for a thorough check and will update afterwards. Update: 2200 miles, still no flats. The rear tire was worn and when I replaced it I found a piece of stainless wire stuck in Mr. Tuffy's liner (photo) but it didn't penetrate. Update over 6000 miles. There are still no flats with multiple sets of tires. The last change had 3 visible punctures in the tire including a large one caused by a broken glass (2 pics). Nothing went through the lining.
