6 Mountain Bike Tire Inserts Compared Head To Head

[@GeoAnaGR]

Wasn't sure if it was GMBN or PB 😅

[@uwu_demon5494]

me too

[@mortenbarth746]

Same

[@NoBrakes23]

Yup.

[@butterlol4196]

same lol i thought they changed their pfp when I checked

[@xxMissSummerxx1]

😂😂👍

[@GamerNorthernIreland]

This is where Henry went! PinkBike it is then!

[@ThunderStruckMTB]

Good signing PB, Henry is gold.

[@cliffsangelsphotography]

Henry? Excellent. Now I'll watch more PB

[@ashton9106]

Respect to the all the mechanics that install these.

[@quancinaa8845]

haha for real tho

[@madeiradriftin4429]

lol..its literally 15minutes of work..just watch the cushcore guide..taking them out its a lot harder

[@Phonophobia]

I once had to fit a 27,5+ cushcore to a 2.6" Schwalbe tire... Minimum tire size to use with these and it was a PAIIIIN. But if you dont do that, it's not that hard to install.

[@madeiradriftin4429]

@@Phonophobia yeah that sounds like a pain! the normal one on a 2.35 nobby nick is hard but only because the bead of the tire is so hard..on maxxis its relatively easy with a car tire as support for the bike wheel

[@AppleJack76]

This comment hurts my hands.

[@arloridesbikes9921]

Good to see henrey on PB

[@renzlawmtb8305]

Looking forward for more tech content on PB now that Henry's here

[@roywilkie9577]

there's no content here.

[@ichiroku]

the Rocky reference along with the "questionable line choices" was golden writing

[@tonyb9735]

I also enjoyed the undignified back spasms

[@olavsmed]

Really should have tested the same tire without inserts too! That difference would mean the most to anyone not using inserts today, and would be a nice reference.

[@piciu256]

The rim wouldn't have survived probably. This tire is great for pinch flat protection, however it doesn't save the rim from dinging.

[@PilotX82]

Henry back on KZbin! Now with Pinkbike! Sweeet!

[@tonyb9735]

Yes, although it is disappointing that he hasn't really committed. His bike was absolutely not pink.

[@fazza2104]

Pinkbike stole Jason from mahalo and Henry from Gmbn, who’s gonna be next

Definitely

[@jakobholm1847]

Yes, Henry! So happy to see you again! 😄

[@donaldwilson2339]

Good to see Henry back at what he's great at, looking forward to future content👍

[@flybyguy1450]

If you play the video at .25x speed you can see how the different inserts attenuate the rebound of the tire, with inserts like the vittoria and tannus keeping the tire in contact with the rock the entire time. Important to note though how the rear wheel hits the dirt before the rock on some runs, but for others the tire is free falling when it hits the rock.

[@willbros1499]

HENRYYYYYY!! He's back! For a split second, I thought...."Hey, did I click an old GMBN video link by accident?" I see he's still got the same twisted sense of humor. "Rougher than moonshine brewed in a prison toilet." NICE!! Tannus is the way to go over CushCore. First hand experience with the protection, and installing both...multiple times, and for me, it's not even close when you consider it's half the price and weight! I am interested to see how the other contenders fare, but I'm a believer in Tannus for sure!

[@PabloMollAN]

Great to see HQ again!

[@shadyss96]

Happy to see you again Henry!

[@oskarstaudte]

Was unsure if it was GMBN or Pinkbike for a sec, glad to see Henry out there!

heyyy its the gmbn guy

Henry! 😍🥰 glad to see you back! Nice addition to the PB team.

[@PurlCat]

Okay but now I want to see how a pool noodle compares to all these inserts ;)

[@pryan05p71]

Hell of a lot cheaper.

From UK to Canada, congratulations Henry 🍾🥂🎉🎊👍

[@pryan05p71]

Yes, welcome for sure

[@lossantoscity3249]

I believe his family Moved to Canada and he applied at PinkBike. Considering he have an amazing resume PinkBike hired him immediately.

[@XavieRibeiro25]

Man, I'm just so happy that he actually keeps making videos for MTB. Couldn't care less if it is Pinkbike or GMBN.

[@erinb4919]

Glad to see Henry again :)

[@tonyhruzek4250]

Welcome Henry! I missed you this last year!

[@LeDank]

My LBS has a deal with Tannus since their US headquarters is local. I threw the tubeless ones in my e-bike and they seem really good. I can hit rock gardens with total confidence.

[@KDog2264]

Informative thanks. Great to see you again Henry, I have missed seeing you at GMBN

[@ChefIan73]

Interesting to see that on the square edge rock some of the inserts really had a strong damping effect. While others had a very pronounced rebound.

[@jfrtbikgkdhjbeep9974]

yeah, i prefer the damping ... tanner and cushcore ?

[@jimbob5b200]

We missed you !

[@kbeightyseven]

I have been using the tubed version of the tannus for 2 years now and it has been an awesome purchase for the rear of my hardtail

i kinda sensed tannus could get me to buy their product, gotta research online

[@zeptepiantraveller]

"Ack-- I have served my purpose. Farewell..."

[@erikrosenmeier6086]

I own a pair of rimpact inserts. My bike has 130/120 mm travel with 35 mm internal width rims and 2.5 Maxxis aggressors in the Exo casing. I bought the originals. Installment was pretty easy, and so far (4-5 months now?) they’ve held up well. I haven’t noticed any difference in sidewall stiffness or anything like that, but my rims are pretty wide and I’m not very sensitive rider. I also haven’t felt any differences in weight, but again, I’m not super sensitive. However they have most definitely saved my rear tire and rims on multiple occasions, and for that I keep them in

[@DhimaRider]

Wow Henry is Here !!!!!

[@Paulo-fr3xm]

Henry's back 👍👍👍👍

[@gevons]

Henry! What a welcomed surprise !

[@Mikesonbikes]

Tannus armor + magic Mary= yelling and throwing things 😂

[@paulwintermute1495]

My Tannus Tubeless armor inserts have been a non issue regarding tire changes using maxxis tires. Cushcore on the other hand made me want to throw the whole wheel in the trash.

[@gaboleo94]

@@paulwintermute1495 do you think the tannus changes the tire feel in a bad way?

[@alphamonkey56]

What about shwalbe procore?

[@bradleyefc]

Henry is the man

[@nyreppin1]

I was hoping to see a test with super low PSI to try to get the tire to slide side to side over the insert. I'm very curious how those inserts will affect quick, tight corners.

[@gpearce11]

Considering how comprehensive this comparison is, I'm a little surprised the Nukeproof ARD wasn't present.

[@chongkies64]

I agree. ARD is great considering its cheaper price.

[@dennispikephotography]

QUINNEY! Hell yes! He’s awesome.

[@arloridesbikes9921]

Id be interested to see how panzer evo works as a front wheel instert due to the light weight

[@FritzPhoto]

Nice to see Henry again!

[@mikano2349]

You are back in the game Henry, love it!

[@Surestick88]

This is missing a test of a homemade backer-rod insert.

Cushcore is coming out with a trail version in June. XC, Trail, Pro, and Plus will all be available now.

[@zeptepiantraveller]

Love my Tannus, thoroughly recommend👍

[@gobikeyourself]

To be honest I came for the inserts but in the end was fascinated how much pounding the chain gets in a hard landing while still sticking to the chainring ;-) 6:06

[@ArneHB1]

Where can I find the follow up video on the inserts? I can't seem to find it

[@danielklepoch7470]

my take away from this was that tannus armour is the best for techy trails where you will be hitting your wheel not as hard but more often, and the cushcore seems to be best for flow trails or trails where they will be bigger impacts but less often

[@TeamCykelhold]

Your comment contained more actual information than the video.

[@MrChadLedford]

I have been running mynesweepers and love them.

[@phillipmaloney5364]

This was great. Was there a follow up in-depth review?

[@rolux4853]

Okay I saw Henry’s name under a lot of Pinkbike articles but wasn’t sure if he just wasn’t a guest writer for years. I guess this video answers the question!

[@the-cyber-monkey]

Nice to see Henry back commenting on bike tech, missed you on GMBN Tech

[@sml2238]

you guys didn't give any thoughts on any of them...I mean granted yes I did slow the footage down and pause it but it wasn't lined up accurately so it was difficult to compare, what I noticed was cushcore and the tannus seemed to be the most supportive followed by the rimpact, then the huck Norris and panzer in last seemingly since they appeared to allow the rock or compression to get much closer to the rim itself, now if they still protect the rims and have other benefits maybe that's not a bad thing so it would have been nice to hear some thoughts after you riding them.
