Cush Core

XC Tire Insert - Pair

CushCore inserts are foam inserts that fit inside your bicycle tires. They enhance ride quality by providing extra cushioning, which helps absorb shocks from rough terrain. This not only improves comfort but also reduces the risk of pinch flats and enhances traction, allowing you to maintain better control while riding.

A Presta air valve is a type of valve used for inflating bicycle tires, typically found on higher-end bikes. The 44mm measurement indicates the length of the valve stem, which is crucial for compatibility with different rim depths. Using the correct valve ensures efficient inflation and helps maintain tire pressure, which is essential for optimal performance.

A valve core tool is a handy device that allows you to easily remove or install the core of a valve. This is particularly useful for maintenance tasks, such as adding sealant to tubeless tires or replacing a damaged valve core. Having this tool on hand can save you time and hassle when performing tire maintenance.

Tire widths refer to the measurement of the tire's width, ranging from 1.8 inches to 2.4 inches. The width you choose affects compatibility with your bike's frame and rims, as well as the type of riding you plan to do. Wider tires generally provide more stability and traction, especially on rough terrain, while narrower tires may be better for speed on smooth surfaces.

Inner rim widths, which range from 22mm to 32mm in this context, are crucial for ensuring that your tire fits properly on the rim. A proper fit affects performance, handling, and safety while riding. Choosing a tire that matches your rim width helps optimize your bike's performance and ensures a secure fit, reducing the risk of tire blowouts.

CushCore Inserts are designed to be compatible with a range of tire widths, typically from 1.8 inches to 2.4 inches. However, it's essential to check the specific compatibility of the inserts with your chosen tire width and rim width to ensure optimal performance and fit. This will help you achieve the best ride quality and protection against flats.
