The 8 contact points provide great stability when leaning into turns and cornering. Using it allows you to ride at lower pressures, increasing grip and improving handling; plus, if you get a flat, you retain 70% of the tire’s volume, letting you keep riding and make it home… or win a Carrera!
Discover Octa Mousse’s high-performance X-TECH foam
Octa Mousse is manufactured using X-TECH high-performance foam technology, which is incredibly lightweight and durable, with only 1% absorption. This is essential, as it prevents anti-puncture fluid from accumulating inside. The foam also has a softer feel and a slower rebound compared to traditional round polyethylene Mousses, contributing to a higher-quality ride.
The Octa Mousse Strong Rim Guard requires a valve with a side air outlet; conventional valves will become blocked. Be sure to add it to your order! Octa Mousse V2 Valve
