Tube Saddle is a lightweight foam insert designed to prevent pinch flats. It requires no modification to the rim and installs essentially the same as an inner tube. The MXA crew was able to run rear tire pressures as low as 8 psi for added traction with no ill effects.

The common thread

Lower pressure without second guessing every rock.

The reviews keep coming back to the same thing: more bite, less deflection, and the confidence to ride terrain that normally punishes inner tubes.

Lower pressure. More traction. Pinch flats end here.
