Vittoria Air-Liner Protect Enduro

This insert is specifically designed for 29-inch wheels with tire widths between 2.4 and 2.6 inches. If your tires fall outside this range, you may experience fitment issues or compromised performance.

Yes, adding a foam insert does make mounting and unmounting tires slightly more involved than a standard tubeless setup. You will need to use proper tire levers and technique, but it becomes manageable with a little practice.

Each insert weighs 272 grams. While this adds a small amount of rotational weight, most riders find the trade-off in rim protection and the ability to run lower tire pressures for better traction well worth the minor increase.

Absolutely. In fact, you must use a tubeless-compatible sealant with the Air-Liner Protect. The insert is designed to work alongside sealant, not replace it, to ensure your tubeless system remains airtight and puncture-resistant.

While it is not a 'run-flat' tire in the automotive sense, the dense foam provides enough structure to prevent your rim from hitting the ground immediately. It can help you limp to the trailhead or a safe spot, but it is not intended for extended riding on a completely flat tire.
