Review: Fixes most common qualms about the old CushCore - The two biggest complaints about the traditional CushCore (now known as the “Pro”) are that it’s hard to install and it’s heavy. This XC version mitigates those issues while still offering most of the advantages of the older model. I run it on the rear of both my XC-oriented hardtail and my 160mm travel trail/enduro bike. To me, the advantages are most pronounced on the rear wheel, so I skip it on the front. Installation is a couple added steps compared with a normal tubeless setup, but it’s not really any more difficult if you follow the instructions. Indeed, the insert actually helps new tires seal on the rim so you’re less likely to require a compressor to seat the tire. The rim protection enables me to drop PSI from 28 to 23 (I weigh around 100kg). As we get into the muddier riding months I may even take it lower. A super underrated feature of CushCore is it acts as a volume spacer inside your tire. So while you get the small-bump compliance of low PSI, if your tire takes a big hit the pressure will ramp up quicker and keep the ledge or root or whatever from impacting your rim. If you still manage to bottom out, the foam itself will protect your rim and reduce the likelihood and severity of pinch flats. The ~150g added weight (about as much as a traditional tube) is offset because I feel much more comfortable running a lighter tire and lighter rim than I would otherwise. Lower pressure yields enhanced traction. So yeah, I’m drinking the kool-aid on this one.
Review: Good Stuff - I got the xc , but I really ride pretty rocky, chunky stuff. I didn't think I needed the pro version and don't want the weight if I don't need it. Running with 2.4" Rekons and haven't had any issues. I've played with the air pressure some, but can't really find a pressure that seems to be the sweet spot (been a lot of wet rides lately too, so that hasn't helped). I mainly got these for rim protection and they have done great at that. I actually smacked my back wheel into the square edge of a concrete storm drain box hopping up onto it. Hit going about 15mph and hard enough I needed to apologize to my bike, but no damage at all. Can't give a good comment on side wall stability, but can't complain either. I think it got better, but I just spent money on inserts, so I want to believe it's better.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A necessary product for carbon bike frames
*by S***O on August 10, 2024*

The product is great after installation and works as expected. Please make sure you have extra tools for application as my normal tools tore up my hands trying to get the tires over the cush core.
