Slime Bicycle Tire Liners Twin Pack (26-Inch) Reviews
11 of 11 people found the following review helpful These liners cause flats, buy Tuffy liners instead., By Randy "rides a bike" (NorCal) - See all my reviews This review is from: Slime Bicycle Tire Liners Twin Pack (26-Inch) (Sports) I ran these in my mountain bike for a while with over 60psi in my tires for commuting to work...they worked great with that much pressure. When I went down to trail pressure (50psi or so) I got one ride in before they caused a laceration all the way around the tube that was not patchable...there was literally a cut all the way around the tube from the edge of the liners. Other brands (Tuffy Liners, for example) have a tapered edge that is not as sharp as these. Slime needs to redesign these things in a big way. I love the thickness of them for the thorns I deal with, but they really need a tapered edge. I would avoid them. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful This liner may be slicing my inner tube, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Slime Bicycle Tire Liners Twin Pack (26-Inch) (Sports) I installed the liner on both the front and back tire. Since I had a major flat on the rear tire before I installed the liner, I also replaced the inner tube with one prefilled with slime. 30 min into the initial brisk ride on city streets, the new inner tube burst. I replaced it with a 2nd slime inner tube - 10 days later, burst again. Kind of wondering if the liner is rubbing against the inner tube. I noticed a 1-2" laceration along the tube slightly off center. I am now trying something else - buying a kevlar tire with a generic inner tube and did not install the liner on the rear tire - will see how this lives up. Bottom line, I suspect the liner causes the inner tube to slide around and eventually rub against the inner tube and cause it to tear. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful Live in the West? Gotta get some, This review is from: Slime Bicycle Tire Liners Twin Pack (26-Inch) (Sports) Any one going for a ride in the west/southwest, these are a must item. The desert is a minefield of thorns, bristles, spikes and needles, all waiting to let the air out of your tires.I was concerned these would be too narrow to provide adequate coverage, but the fear was alleviated when they arrived, they are plenty wide to provide protection for a MTB tire. Put these in, and you may never have another plant-related flat again. These may not stop a big nail, but that's a pretty rare event, if you're watching the road! |
