VITTORIA AIR-LINER PROTECT DOWNHILL

VITTORIA AIR-LINER PROTECT DOWNHILL

Maximum protection on the most extreme Downhill routes: You will no longer fear sharp rocks or insidious roots: Air-Liner Protect has your back
The Air-Liner Protect Downhill tire insert was born on the most challenging DH courses of the UCI Mountain Bike World Series. Built in high-density polymer foam that guarantees long product life and durability, it allows riders to tackle even the most extreme descents with confidence. It provides a robust barrier between the rim and the tire, offering unprecedented protection against punctures, sidewall cuts, and pinch flats. The Air-Liner Protect Downhill version uses a higher-density foam than the enduro version, meticulously designed to withstand the extreme, relentless forces encountered on high-speed descents. Unlike its predecessor, Air-Liner Protect Downhill is presented as a complete ring, with the ends already joined, eliminating the need for cuts and ties.

Technology
Air-Liner Protect Downhill is made with a high-density expanded material formula specific to downhill needs. The material is compatible with any type of liquid sealant. It is available in 2 wheel sizes (27.5" and 29"), each compatible with tires from 2.4" to 2.6". It must be used only with tubeless setups (not compatible with inner tubes) and only with tubeless valves - one valve is included in the package.

VITTORIA AIR-LINER PROTECT DOWNHILL MAIN FEATURES:

• Air-Liner Protect protects rims from strong impacts and reduces the risk of snake bites.
• The "T" shape creates a barrier between the rim edges and the inner side of the tire bead.
• Air-Liner Protect does not affect tire rolling resistance.
• Under air pressure, the insert collapses onto the rim creating a seal capable of withstanding even the strongest impacts.
• With Air-Liner Protect, no foreign object can roll inside the tire.
• Air-Liner Protect supports the tire sidewalls under the load of the corner.
• You can take on corners at full speed: there is no risk that your tires will come off the rim.
• Air-Liner Protect also increases sidewall protection against cuts and punctures.
• Thanks to its "T" shape, Air-Liner Protect allows you to increase the air volume inside the tire.
• This means you can lower the air pressure and achieve greater grip without risking damaging the tire or harming the rim.
