Tire & Tube Confidence

A simple and practical solution to annoying punctures. Very reliable and easier than tubeless. So far very satisfied with durability and price.

Pros
  • STOP FLAT AND DAMAGE DISC: Our patented foam insert is designed to enhance your ride while protecting wheels up to 20mm thick.
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Unable to install

I've mounted hundreds of tires. I've tried them on both 27mm Nobl carbon rims and 30mm DT alloy wheels with 2.3" single ply and 2.4" dual ply tires. I wasn't able to successfully install it in any of these combinations after several hours of trying.

Pros
  • FASTER ROOM: Armor Tubeless is 3% faster than your standard tubeless rig.
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Never been able to install the bead correctly

My local bike shop spent a couple of weeks fighting them in my tires with no success. Never could get on board properly and the tires didn't hold air until they took out the inserts and went straight tubeless. Tires are new Maxxis DHR/DHF.

Pros
  • INDUSTRY BEST VIBRATION DAMPING: According to our testing, Armor Tubeless offers more shock absorption than any other leading brand.
Cons
  • A few bits and pieces

pain in the buttocks. They don't like these.

I spent 1 hour on the rear wheel and 2.5 hours on the front wheel. I bought them in part because they have to be one of the easiest to install. As soon as I put them on I had a little wiggle in the back and a lot of wiggle in the front. Instructions on the Tannus website and a YouTube video by Tannus showed how to get rid of the wobble, but it didn't work for me. So far they haven't convinced me at all. Other message boards have similar problems. I have 29" e13 TRS+ wheels (30mm wide) withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • SIDE IMPACT AND CORNERING IMPROVEMENT: Take corners faster and harder without deflating the tire.
Cons
  • Nothing
