Does this have any effect on the maximum air press you can put in the tube under the tire? (spacewise)

No at all!, in my experience I use to pump up my tires at maximum recommended (85psi) in Michelin World Tour and I didnt have problems, Of course I use the Michelin tube "Michelin Airstop" and "Avenir Threaded Presta 48Mm Valve Tube"... The Tuffy Bicycle protection is great for ride for everywhere...

I have been using these liners for awhile now. My 700x23 tiresstate max. air 116 psi and I inflate to that before I ride. Have neverencountered a problem. After ride I deflate tires, a good practice I think.These liners add weight and influence roll. But is not critical.

No effect. If your tire sidewall states 130lbs max inflation; pump your tires to 130 or whatever lbs-per-sq.-in the sidewall states.

No, use the normal amount when you pump the tires. Have been using them for years with great results. Now remember, the liner won't stop a pinch flat or if you hit a curb for example. I've dug glass out of my wife's tires, great stuff.

No, I fill my tires just as I did before I put these in. If you think about it, it really should not make any difference anyway since the air Pressure is what you are measuring, not the volume. The liners work, they are worth it.

In my experience, not at all... and I've been using Mr. Tuffy liners in my mountain-bike and road-bike tires for as long as the Tuffys have been being made.

For the one I've ridden several thousand miles now, a 26" x 1 3/8", the answer is yes. Moreso than the airless tires I've also tried, close enough to an aired tire I find no practical difference. It rolls pretty well too. The biggest tradeoff is how hard they are to mount. The smaller the diameter, the higher the equivalent pressure, and the harder to mount. My brother is using a larger one, and it wasn't nearly as tough to get on.

I had no problem putting air to the tires by using a regular hand pump. Perhaps you might want to check the pump? Make sure the pump head is inserted fully to the tire's valve

No. If you are keep the same tire. If you go to a wider tire it will get close.

Hi Kevin,It will actually have the opposite effect. It will bring the wheels further underneath the vehicle. Ideally you would use the +35MM offset, its a better fit.Thanks,BWT

yes you can. you lower the 'resistance bar' that the tire would rest on for resistance, until it is no longer touching the tire.

Sure. Bike tires typically need a higher inflation than car tires but this unit has the capacity for these higher pressures.

I couldn't read the values when attached to tire. but you can remove it and then read the value. It retains measurement value, so no need to read the value while placed on tire air tube hook (don't know the exact term).

It should work fine for that. And while you could set the regulator down to the pressure you want in your tire, you would better off leaving the regulator at full pressure and using a manual triggered tire inflater (with pressure gauge) at the end of your air hose. Tire inflaters like this often have built-in air bleeder buttons too, allowing you to instantly release excess pressure if you pump in too much.

I have a spare tire mounted in mine, so if I have had any drop in mileage I would attribute it to that. I think if there is any drop it is due to what is being carried in the rack and that causing the drag. The rack itself seems like it would cause minimal drag.

The only way to remove air from a tire (or whatever else you are using) is to place the coupler into the tire valve and bleed off the air. You have to push the center of the valve in to place air in the tire and pump it up. Without pulling the trigger on the handle, you can push the tire valve center in and allow air out of the tire. So far as I can tell, the tire pressure gauge is quite accurate.

I have generally kept mine at around 95 psi without issue. That's with the stock tires and tubes.

It does not seem to be that much. If any, maybe like 1 mm wider. I am 6-1, 175 lbs., and run my tires at 130 psi.

As for all small compressors, if you block the air outlet you get 120 PSI. But the realistic pressure is such that I can increase the air pressure in a minivan tire from 30 to 40 PSI in about two minutes.

No the pressure should be fine. The tire absorbs this pressure and also if you think about the amount of weight on the wheel from riding, I would think the pressure from the rack is not that bad. I've attached my bike with 50mm carbon clinchers before.

It depends on how you adjust it. It has different settings you can adjust, depending on your tire size and back spacing.

Don't know the maximum air pressure it can pump but I am pumping over 100psi (racing bike tires) regularly. It is slow and the compressor gets hot .. I also lubricated the brass pump head so it can turn more freely. Yes, I am using it but with reservation.
