I did some reading .. Don't waste more of your money and buy this. Seems like more trouble than what its worth. This is for people that do trials, not us. It wont save you from flats, just pinch flats with extra headache on installation and random blowouts.

Sorry calltrex seems like people only review stuff when things go bad. Does your tires have to be sealed to your rims for them to work? What do you do if you have a flat? Do you need rim locks?

it has a small hi pressure tube that seals the tire to rims.
also prevent mud or twigs jaming between tire and rim
lighter then tubes in tire
prevents damaging rim if u hit something
rimlock built into it

riding through the mountains last summer with 7 of us. there was 2 flats. would have sucked if they had to take wheels, tires off fix tube or change tube, install tire, install wheel and the worst would be if u went through and mud having to do all that when wheels covered in mud. guess you try to pee the mud off

Well it looks like Caltrex has me sold .. Sorry for being such a hard customer lol Going to order a set for Moab.. Should I order anything else to assist this kit, besides a repair kit for my tires ? Are you coming to Moab Caltrex?

take your time installing. thats why anyone has issues. because they didnt take there time and damaged the hi pressure tube. just watch the videos before or while doing it http://nuetech.com/tubliss/installation/
