  • FAQ

    • Q: Do I still need sealant with tyre inserts?
      A: Yes, tubeless sealant is still required when using tyre inserts. The insert protects the rim and supports the tyre, while sealant seals punctures in the tyre casing.

      Q: What does a tyre insert like Vittoria Air-Liner do?
      A: A tyre insert protects MTB rims and improves tyre stability in tubeless setups. It absorbs impacts from rocks and roots, reduces rim damage, and helps maintain control at lower pressures on technical trails.

      Q: Do I need tyre inserts for mountain biking?
      A: Tyre inserts are not essential but are recommended for aggressive trail, enduro, and downhill riding. They add rim protection and allow lower tyre pressures for better grip on rough terrain.

      Q: How important is rim tape for tubeless MTB setups?
      A: Rim tape is essential for tubeless MTB setups. It prevents air leaking through spoke holes and ensures the tyre can hold pressure reliably with sealant.

      Q: Do tyre inserts prevent punctures?
      A: Tyre inserts do not fully prevent punctures, but they significantly reduce the risk of rim damage and pinch flats. They also help maintain rideability after a puncture by supporting the tyre structure at lower pressures.
