How To Install Tannus Tires #shorts
Просмотров 2356 лет назад
Shield 700x32 tire on a 17mm rim. Showing a technique for pushing the foam down around the pin before pushing the pin in.
I am convinced tubes are being made Whittier and shitier!
Putting the tyre sealant in to for women who ride and will be able to get and flat tyre
You forget to mention the clowns who let the push Bike tyres down for fun
Keep getting a flat on my Ebike because they don't sweep the street here. Thank you I'm going to try this
Sure you can put a schrader in a presta hole you just need to drill it out! Did this on two wheelsets on my Trek Fuel EX and had 0 issues!
I'm talking about with the bike standard
A person shouldn't have to do anything preventative why can't they make a decent tire that doesn't go flat unless something major happens
They do, and we mentioned it in this video - Tannus no-flat solid foam tires! Since they’re solid, they never go flat. They feel very similar to a normal air-filled tube and they cost about the same as a tube and tire together.
well done
Lots of talking, very little useful information.
Sorry about that. What information were you hoping to get from the video that we did not mention?
Thanks, great video. I found hammering the pin into it's final position didn't work except to bang up my fingers but pressing it into place with some water pump pliers was quick and easy.
Do you see many NIU KQI3 Max scooters with flats?
Thank you for this informative video. Glad it does not have background music to distract from your words.
Excellent. Many thanks. My pin broke when on tour on Orkney, Scotland. A LBS made a temp fix and I ordered a new tension pin when home. Your video helped me fit the new pin. The leather was so worn it was an easy fit. Many thanks. Matt
great Video
Why don't they make folding bikes for we poor people: who live in a studio and only want to ride on the sidewalk to the food store :(
We carry some entry-level folding bikes from Tern as low as $500 for those who can't or don't want to shell out $1000+ for a folding bike! They still fold up small enough and are light enough to fit in even the tightest studio apartment or under your desk at work.
The years I owned Bikes going all the way back to childhood is when the tires were new they weren't easily punchered but they got about a year old even if the tire still had a lot of thread they punchered a lot easier.
They've definitely developed a lot of technologies to help prevent punctures! Heavier tires, puncture-resistant tubes, tire liners, etc.
All locks should be time rated meaning how long does it take to cut your lock /chain with an angle grinder . thats generally less than a minute except for the new u bolts that have a coating that fouls the cutting bade on the grinder . Security is really more about WHERE you lock your bike than how .in a safe crime free zone you can leave it unattended but those places are lextremely rare . i live in the high Black Forest area of germany where people don't lock their bikes going into the grocery store ,so my 12mm thick kryptonite chain is probably over kill . however better overkill than killed by shock when you discover your 5000 € e bike is stolen .
Correct! Locks are rated by how much time it takes to break them. Higher-rated locks are thicker and some U-locks even require both sides to be cut, increasing the time it takes to break them. And yes, location is much more important than how well-secured your bike is! You always want your bike to be locked somewhere visible and out in the open - even better would be to take your bike inside with you wherever you go if possible! In most cases, your bike just has to be locked up better than the one next to it, and that's enough to deter most thieves.
👍👍👍
Great video. Ive been riding on Chinese solid tyres for 8+ years, obviously never had a puncture ever as there's no tube . The ride quality is less but for commuting they're unbeatable 👍
Great video, but how do you check tire pressure if the tube has liquid tire seal in it, won’t it clog the value and go into your pressure gauge? Thanks for sharing. 😊
Excellent question! With liquid tire seal, we have never had any issues with clogging pressure gauges when measuring tire pressure, or with skewing measurements. It's a good idea to rotate your wheel to make sure the stem is at the top when measuring pressure or inflating with the liquid seal to make sure it doesn't leak out of the valve stem. Thanks for the question!
I have the Tannus solid tires on my bike the best investment I ever made I go long and short distances on my bike no maintenance no flat tires I will never go back to a regular tire again and yes I actually go very long distances with my bike and I love it
🎉good to know about tennis tires but my rims don't have hook lip on inside. So I'm back to square one. Ever seen Styrofoam used to prevent goat heads. Thanks guys!
Tannus actually makes a tire liner as well as the solid tires, and the tire liner doesn't require the lip inside the rim. It still protects against lots of thorns and serves as a run-flat as well. Would recommend checking them out!
Can I upgrade from. 26 x 1.7 to a 26 x 2.1 Tire?
Generally that is something pretty easy to do - just make sure your rim, frame, and fenders (if applicable) can accommodate a tire that wide, and you may have to switch tubes as well. Sometimes if you are putting on a larger tire, it can rub against the frame or the fenders, so definitely check to make sure that doesn't happen. Great question!
Thanks
How do i measure it with outnumbers in tires? Please help
You can measure a tire's ISO size by taking the diameter in mm between the inner edges of the tire (the bead), and the width at the widest point of the tire. ISO is generally written in this format: 12 - 345 (width - diameter). Any tape measure with metric units will get you where you need to go, or you can convert inches to millimeters if you need to. Hope this helps!
Nice...!😊
Have a video on noisey bottom brackets and crank arms? fixing or replacement
We'll put it on our list of future video ideas! We have lots that we'd like to make videos about.
Great video.
Just get Pirelli Cinturato Velos. Feels like a road bike tire, more protection than Continental Hardshell and any Schwalbe Touring tire. New 100% Kevlar tech has made all this old school stuff obsolete. You can ride right over nails and goatheads and nothing will happen.
My tannus tires ride about the same as the gatorskin ultra hardshell tires, thorn resistant tubes and slime which still require pressure checks and carrying a pump/spare. Neither is a great ride quality, but at least I haven't had to change tires since in the dark since switching to tannus even after pulling 3 screws and 2 nails out.
Yep, the Tannus are very convenient in that way. I think as far as feel, it really depends on the type of riding you do. They really excel on hard surfaces like roads and aren't built to ride long distances due to the small efficiency loss.
Yeah, Tannus Armor. I learned to swear on a couple of languages when finally installed them, but I think they worth it. Puncture and pinch protection at the dame time. However, it wears the tyre from the inside 😱 At least, it wears down the rubber part. Actually, I put the inner tube to the Tannus Armor, then put them into the tyre. And then I put the whole thing on the wheel. That may be easier than fight the inner tube inside the TA while they are in the tyre and on the wheel.
We are absolutely there with you as far as the difficulty of installing them. As someone who does some of our installations (I also record and edit our videos!) it took me a few months to get a hang of installing the Tannus solid tires and I still have difficulty with the Armour, but man are they worth it! The owner of our shop has both the Armours and the solid tires on various bikes of his and that is consistently the last thing he has to worry about, so they are super convenient! I would personally much rather spend an extra ~10 minutes installing something that will ensure the longevity of my tube.
How does Cycle to Go feel about Ebike tire repairs? (have you had any experience with them enough to offer suggestions like this other channel did) see: ruclips.net/video/Y9kA7ddN4zc/видео.html
We do lots of e-bike tire/tube replacements, and one thing we suggest to many e-bike owners is Tannus's Armour. It's a foam liner that goes between the tube and tire, and it prevents most pinch flats and almost all flats from sharp objects. It also serves as a run-flat. Great option for any e-bike owner, especially with fat tires!
I've heard of Tannus Amour, but when I get some time I'll try and explain later one of it's biggest negatives. It has something to do with the ongoing maintenance required for it to work properly. I think it has something to do with relieving and adjusting the tire pressure when the E-Bike is not in use, (something like that, it's stated somewhere in the instructions) I wish I had the youtube link where I heard this handy, but don't have it handy right now.
I haven't had any HUGE issues with this lock yet! ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfyHDlEqk6hqu9acdvK5NGzZsGKSokSbv It seems sturdy and like it will get the job done. I really like that it has a twisting lock feature to keep out dirt and debris. However, the mounting system is much too light for the lock, and continues to get loose/move around. It's mostly made of plastic parts, and I've had to tighten it a few times in the past week or so that I've had it. I'm worried that it's going to break off at some point while I'm riding. I'm considering just scrapping that part, but that would mean having to carry the heavy lock i my backpack and adding more weight. I wish I could have given this more stars, but without the mounting system, it's just another heavy lock that I have to cart around. UPDATE: Increased rating to 5 stars because the seller offered to provide a new lock and mounting system. Really appreciate the attention to customer service!!
Some major tyre company needs to make solid tires most psi in bike tires ramp up to around 100 psi making them rock hard so you'd not even notice if it was a solid tire I'd bet you could recycle old car tires into new solid tires
That's the idea with Tannus's solid foam tires! We have them here at our shop and so many of our customers are beyond thrilled to never have to replace tires again.
Solid core tires really do seem like the better choice. Are there fat tire solid core tires? What about omnidirectional solid core tires? Give you greater flexibility in your steering, more like how a hover craft moves about, but still maintain contact with the road.
Tannus does not make any solid tires for fat tire bikes or e-bikes, for both efficiency and ease-of-installation reasons - though they do make tire liners that protect a typical pneumatic tire against most punctures. We do not know of any commercially available omnidirectional tires for bikes specifically. That is something that is so early in development and would require so much modification that it likely will not be adopted for a very long time, if at all.
I just double . 👍 I tube hate messy sealant. 🥴🥴🥴
2 words, Tannus Armour
Yes! It's a great way to protect against most flats without sacrificing the feel of a pneumatic tire, and serves as a ride-flat so you never get stuck anywhere.
@@cycletogo I have them in 3 of my bikes. I can't remember the last time I changed a flat 👍
Flat out works great in a tube.
Thank you so much. I tried to buy new tyres for my Jamis bike today in Kyoto, where I bought the bike, and the staff were like, computer says no, despite having a load of tyres in there. After watching your video I looked at my tyres and found the ISO number, 23c 622. I shall go back tomorrow fully informed and find the right tyres myself, for my trip to Hokkaido next week. Much appreciated.
After my bike was stolen I’ve spent over $250 on Kryptonite locks for my new bikes. I’m not taking any chances with the new ones. I use at least 2 locks when I leave my bike out and don’t legit out longer than 5 minutes. I live in NYC bikes get stolen all the time and the police can’t do much about it.
Hands down slime is the best, saved my ass out in no where 5 min on my way.
Another excellent video! 👍 Re: the solid tires 1) how does weight compare to typical tube+tire? 2) is ride noticeably rougher? (no air, no cushion) Thanks again for your effort on these excellent videos! 🙂
Thanks a bunch! The solid tires are ever so slightly lighter than a comparable-size tube/tire combo, and they're only slightly less of a smooth ride. We've had customers test them out in our parking lot and not notice a difference at all, and some customers who do notice a slight difference. With the solid tires you do lose a tiny bit of efficiency (~3%) that's only really noticeable on long rides. Thanks for your questions, glad the video was helpful!
Stan's works great in a tube except it can't be a patched tube or the sealant dissolves the patch adhesive and you have a future flat.
Do tannis tires come in 20x4?
The Tannus solid tires don't come in a 20x4" size, but they do make an Armour (tire liner) in that size. Thanks for the question!
Excellent video. You cover everything quickly and clearly, with excellent visuals and no verbal fumferring. I use triple protection: thorn-resistant tubes + Mr. Tuffy tire liners + high quality kevlar puncture resistant tire (Gatorskin and Schwalbe Marathon Plus are both excellent). I ride thousands of miles and years between flats. 🙂 Also, thorn-resistant tubes hold air much longer, I guess because they're so thick. Yes, any puncture-resistant product adds weight to the wheel, but I'm happy with that tradeoff. Again, excellent video. Very well done! 👍
Thank you!
ty vm
quality tire-liners and new tires, with a heavy tube usually works well for me; I can go years between flats; all the rest is goopy, or heavy, and not worth it.
Excellent and informative! Thank you!
A little naivete, I fear: First, if you lock to a tree, thief cuts the tree & steals your bike. Second, to trust a security officer? Are you kidding? S/He's not responsible if your bike walks; in fact, I've had security officials proudly announce they're not responsible if the bike's stolen. Third, even signs aren't good; thieves remove the signage; sometimes, signpost isn't well secured. In sum, lock to things that aren't easily cuttable or that lack easily removable parts. It's a jungle out there.
Will it work in a tube too,Slime does not work.
I have this Tannus on my MTB … perfect … for little bit off road and over land and town trips 🍀🍀🍀✌️😜✌️🍀🍀🍀
