There was a good test of the 'Tireballs' in last months TBM mag,comparing them against Mousse inserts and Heavy Duty tubes.

They came out pretty well...if pricey.


Again,TBM feature the Scorpion Pro in THIS month`s issue.


TBM have their own website now....so why not check it out,if you can`t find,or you`re too mingey, to buy the mags ??

Not tried them yet, but if I do manage to get back into enduro's, then I will be. They do seem quite expensive initially, but having tried mousses I think the cost would be balanced against longevity and ease of tyre changing.
IMHO of course

Seems like an obvious but very good idea......

I can imagine that it must make tyre changing so much more difficult though........the air pressure of a tube or the air in a tubeless tyre is what holds it onto the bead, and you have to release that before you can easily break te bead and remove the tyre.....how do you do that with these???

So you're fighting to get a tyre off a wheel and you can't deflate it....and the same when refitting

How does that work then !
