Octa Mousse OCT50 27.5″ Enduro – DH – Ebikeis a rim and tire protector designed for Tubeless systems. It is made from lightweight and durable X-TECH technical foam. With Octa Mousse, in addition to protecting the rim, you’ll reduce the dreaded tire bead cut to nearly 0%; the rim won’t bite into your tire. Its asymmetrical octagonal shape is designed to facilitate the free flow of anti-puncture fluid and make installation easier than with cylindrical systems. The 8 contact points of its shape provide great stability to the tire casing during cornering and through turns. If you get a puncture, you retain approximately 70% of the tire’s volume; this feature can be vital in competition, giving you the chance to finish the race. It also allows you to ride at lower pressures, thereby increasing grip and braking power.
The high-performance X-TECH foam is waterproof; after extensive laboratory testing, the product is certified to have only 1% water absorption. You’ll also notice that the X-TECH compound has a softer feel and slower rebound compared to round-shaped polyethylene foam.
Octa Mousse requires a valve with a side air outlet; conventional valves become blocked.
