A Dugast Rhino TLR Cyclocross Tyre

Must be mounted with great sensitivity

I really wanted to try out the tyre and the YouTube video showed that fitting it was child's play. What followed was a drama, which the Mantel team fortunately responded to in a very accommodating manner. It is impossible to fit a tyre without a compressor or booster - the instructions shown in the video with a floor pump are completely unrealistic. And then you have to proceed with a lot of sensitivity so that the pressure does not exceed 1.5 bar - a lot of sealant leaks out. Once you have the tyre reasonably tight, it still requires a lot of force to finally get the tyre bead correctly onto the rim everywhere - all at max. 1.5 bar. All in all, so much sealant leaked out that I had to top up with another 30 ml at the end. Once you've managed all that, however, it's a really nice tyre that's also great to ride.
