- Supplied as a pair of inserts and valves!
- Improve tyre performance while protecting your tyre and rim.
- NOT suitable for use with innertubes.
- New from Rimpact, the updated V2 Original Tyre Insert!
- Designed from the ground up here in the UK, complete with Rimpact Unblockable valves!
- The V2 inserts measure 54.9mm wide at the widest point, 5mm wider than the Original inserts (44.9mm wide) giving better tyre stability especially at low pressures.
- Slightly denser foam construction offers even more rim protection against heavy impacts, especially against sharp corners and edges.
- Ideal for increasing tyre performance while also protecting both your tyre and rim.
- As used by our very own

- Insert design means a reduction in tyre roll, an increase in vibration and impact damping, and a reduction in punctures.
- Closed cell foam ensures that it won't absorb any sealant, preventing wastage.
- High density, cross-linked polyethylene construction prevents tears and rips, and helps hold its shape after repeated impacts.
- Top quality aluminium Presta valves have a 'unblockable' design - the ports in the head of the valve exit the side of the head, rather than the top!
- This design means that the insert can't block the top of the valve (a common issue with regular valves) but is still compatible with sealant injectors.
- 44mm length valves are compatible with the majority of rims.
- Presta valves are also compatible with Schrader drilled rims, up to a maximum valve hole size of 9.5mm, thanks to the tapered head of the valve. If taping your own rims, we recommend making as small a hole in them for the valve as possible to ensure a better seal.
- Available for 24" and 26" wheels.
- Compatible with inner rim widths of 25-35mm, and tyres between 2.4" and 2.6".
- Rimpact recommend using 25% more sealant than normal to ensure adequate coverage and protection, however for trials use we would add 50%, given that very few of the tyres we run are tubeless compatible (so will take additional sealant to seal the tyre).
- For installation instructions, follow Rimpact's guidelines
here. We highly recommend ensuring that the tyre bead is in the centre of the rim well as much as possible when fitting the second bead - it makes life much easier!
- Supplied as a pair of tyre inserts and a pair of valves.
- Weight: approx. 90g per 26" insert.
