Tubeless ready tire. If the tire mounted too easily, the tire is most likely
too large.
Warning: oversized tyres may deflate unexpectedly and cause acci-
dents, as well as serious or fatal injuries.
If necessary, use a lever to help insert the tire beads, use a plastic
lever so as to avoid damaging the rim.
Warning: avoid using sharp
objects so as to prevent damage to the tire.
To install the Tubeless ready tire, please follow these simple steps:
• Moisten the base of the rim with soap and water.
• Starting from the valve, insert the firstof the two tyre beads into
place, and continue along the entire circumference of the wheel.
• Fit the other bead of the tire and continue around the whole circum-
ference of the rim: check the correct positioning of the tire on both
sides of the valve zone. Ensure the correct positioning of the tire
moving slightly back and forth the tire.

INFLATING THE TUBELESS TYRE
!
Warning
If you have any doubts about your ability to perform any of the
following procedures, seek advice from qualified personnel.
For your safety, always wear gloves and goggles when performing
repair and maintenance on your wheels.
Before inflating the Tubeless ready tire, we recommend that you use
the anti-puncture liquid by following these simple steps
(Attention,
please do not use any liquid, which might contain ammonia)
:
• Remove the valve cap.
• Using your index finge, gently press the top of the valve so as to
ensure there is no air inside the tire.
• Remove the top part of the valve using the appropriate tools.
• Insert the anti-puncture liquid using the appropriate dispenser. Spin
the wheel around several times to distribute the liquid throu-ghout
the inside of the tire.
• Put the top part of the valve back into place.
• Inflate until you achieve the desired inflation pressure. Make sure
the two tire beads are positioned correctly by verifying that the di-
stance between the tire centring line and the margin of the tire is
constant around the entire circumference of the wheel.
• Inflate the tyre. Attention, follow the steps in section 2 of the General
Indications.
• Put back the valve cap.
• Ride the bicycle for 3-4 kms so as to ensure the liquid inside the tire
is evenly distributed.
When you puncture the tire, the air leakage is slow and not immediate,
and in some cases allows you to keep on pedaling back home. Keep in
mind that a Tubeless ready tire can be repaired by applying a puncture
repair patch or spray, or by inserting an inner tube
III
INSERTING AN INNER TUBE IN A
TUBELESS TIRE IN THE EVENT OF A
PUNCTURE
The inner tube must be fittedwith a Presta valve that has a 6 mm dia-
meter.
• Deflate the tie.
• Starting from the opposite side of the valve, uncouple the bead from
its seat and continue along the entire circumference of the wheel. If
you must use a lever to uncouple the tire beads, use a plastic lever
so as to avoid damaging the rim and tire.
Warning: avoid using sharp objects so as to prevent da-mage to
the rim and tire.
• Unscrew the valve ring and remove it.
• Drain the puncture prevention liquid from the tire inside.
• Insert the partially inflated inner tube into the tire.
• Starting from the point opposite the valve hole, insert the second
tire bead into place and continue along the entire circumference of
the wheel, be careful not to pinch the inner tube.
• Inflate the inner tube until both tire beads are fitted properly in the
correct position.
• Inflate until you achieve the desired inflation pressure.
