designed only for tube tyres to avoid tyre
failure and personal injury from sudden

deflation.
• When using tube tyres, be sure to install
the correct tube.
• Always replace a new tube tyre and a new
tube as a set.
• To avoid pinching the tube, make sure the
wheel rim band and tube are centered in
the wheel groove.
• Patching a punctured tube is not
recommended. If it is absolutely necessary
to do so, use great care and replace the
tube as soon as possible with a good
quality replacement.
