Tannus Armour tyre inserts
The Tannus “Armour” is a rim and tyre protection system aimed at those using a tube setup as opposed to tubeless. It's meant to improve mounting, provide the rider better flat protection and the ability to ride at lower PSIs without getting a pinch flat. For more info, our news piece is here.
