FAQ

Do CushCore inserts work with any tubeless rim?

CushCore inserts are compatible with standard tubeless rims and tires. They require a CushCore-compatible valve stem, so check your rim valve hole size before installing. Setup is straightforward and doable at home with standard tire levers and a floor pump.

How do CushCore inserts affect tire pressure?

Most riders drop 3 to 8 PSI compared to running without inserts. The foam provides lateral casing support that compensates for lower pressure, reducing pinch flats and rim strikes while improving traction on loose or rocky terrain.

What is the difference between CushCore Pro and CushCore XC?

The Pro model uses a thicker foam profile for maximum rim protection and suits enduro and trail riding. The XC model is lighter and lower profile, built for cross-country racers who want insert protection without a significant weight penalty.

Best For

Riders who push limits on technical trail, enduro, or rough gravel terrain and have experienced rim damage or struggled to dial in tire pressure. CushCore is especially valuable for anyone running carbon rims, where a single strike can mean a costly repair.
