  1. Everything goes through stores. They inspect the pedals and then contact us.
  2. The Inventor of Tubeless : https://www.hutchinsontires.com/us/category/road
  3. You're quite correct...they were full tubeless. Not the best ride. Fusion 5 TLR 11Storm = Next Level.
  4. I'd recommend our own sealant (Protect Air Max), but according the the experts at Hutchinson any good sealant(Stans and so on) will work with their tires. I find that a very thin (not thick sludge) works best.
  5. Some people actually prefer/ed to use it without sealant (if you puncture you walk). Tubeless just means that no sealant is needed....it should seal without and sealant present...hence the different casing used. Fusion 5 TLR vs Fusion 3 (only tubeless) is a very different ride, you won't ever ride anything but TLR.
  6. I just want to clarify a bit of a misconception. There's 3 types of tires, tubed, tubeless and tubeless ready (TLR). A tubed tire won't seal with sealant, it will leak....Tubeless, should seal without any sealant present....TLR tires need sealant but won't leak sealant. (possibly a bit of air over time) Tubeless tires also have a much harder casing, resulting in a harsher ride and it can be quite a mission to fit. The way to go is TLR as it's a much more plush ride and way more user friendly. Fitment is quite important though. You fit the tire dry and pump up until it pop's en beds into the bead. You then remove the valve core and insert sealant through the valve. TLR is the future. I represent Hutchinson (Inventors of tubeless) in SA....check it out. Everybody that's used the new Fusion 5 TLR tire LOVE it!
  7. Hutchinson Fusion 5 are available in both All Season and Performance models in SA in both 25 and 28mm.
  8. The STrack was and is a Super pedal...designed from scratch. (Weight and Mud clearing capabilities being top notch) Due to the fact that most spinning bikes and bikes equiped with OEM pedals are fitted with SPD's....we had to re-look our cleat system. The XTrack also has an improved duel seal....which will surely help in our South African conditions.
  9. Much bigger contact area...even bigger than the STrack. Also better mud clearance due to more space around axle. Read the independent reviews.... Used by most Pro's in SA.

  11. The X Tracks are now available in most stores. #rideyourdream
  12. Fingers Crossed that I will get to it next week. Will post more info here.
  13. I've actually received the shipment...just need to be unpacked.
  14. I think you should stick to the 16nm.
