I bought CuchCore to try to protect my new bike wheel. During the first 2 miles of my first ride I was hit by a rim and a flat tire. Upon closer inspection I found a mark on the CushCore where it flexed (see photos) and allowed my rim to be damaged to the point where it would not hold air with a tubeless tire. I weigh 210 pounds and set the pressure on my 29x2.3 tire at 30psi on a medium track. Given the raw materials, the price of this product is grossly overpriced. I would not recommend it.
