With the Tire Trooper Evo, enduro and downhill pro racer Johannes Fischbach presents a promising new product that is suitable for ambitious racers as well as all hobby riders and bike park shredders and helps to avoid annoying punctures. The Tire Trooper Evo impresses with a special "Double Layer System" with a specially developed material mix that progressively absorbs incoming impacts and dissipates the energy onto the rim in a cushioned manner. The new design also places highly cushioning material specifically where it is needed most to provide efficient protection. In the event of large impacts, the Trooper covers the rim flange protectively, absorbs impacts on the wheel and thus offers a high level of protection against damage.

The interplay of different materials and degrees of hardness should not only offer the best puncture protection, but also optimized damping on stone fields, root carpets and bumps of all kinds. According to the test results on the rim test bench, the maximum load capacity of the rims is increased by a whopping 90 percent, while most conventional puncture protection systems achieve up to 50 percent protection. The Tire Trooper Evo also has a positive effect on handling, as it reduces vibrations and allows you to ride with lower tire pressure. It even reduces annoying burping and rolling of the tire.

"Over the last few years, I have spent every free minute tinkering and testing the new Trooper, as I knew from my many years of experience in the World Cup, but also from riding my home trails, how much potential there was in product development in this area. Many visits to trade fairs and appointments in the plastics industry, right up to the perfect material mix; the search for the optimal production facility, countless prototype tests and much more - a lot of work and passion went into it. I am all the more proud of the product we were able to launch. When we put the finished Tire Trooper Evo to the test, the result really blew us away, because it even exceeded our goal and our expectations compared to the competition. The Trooper has already saved me a World Cup race this season in Switzerland after I slashed my tire on a rock and was still able to finish a complete stage at race pace without any air. So all the work was worth it, and every gravity rider, whether in the bike park, on home trails, with an e-bike or as a racer, can look forward to really good puncture protection," enthuses Johannes Fischbach.

The Tire Trooper puncture protection system does not require any special tools for installation. The inserts are available for 27.5 and 29-inch wheels and work with tire widths from 2.3 to 2.8 inches. They weigh around 280 grams and the set price is 89.95 euros.
