As for the rim tape, first it was Fsa that came stock, then it was Stan’s. I was running 2.8 tires on 40 mm rims at sub 20 psi. I ride my 27.5 plus like fat bike tires, lots of sidewall wrap. The way I install rim tape is I put the tape down, mount the tire with a tube and let it sit inflated for a night. Then I pop one bead, pull the tube and mount the valve and the liner.

Do you have any feedback on the other, heavier versions of this inserts (Enduro, DH and e-bike) as compared to cushcore? I was thinking about the e-bike version in order to compensate for my fat ass...

I am impressed with these so far. They are 1/2 the weight of cushcore. Not nearly as tough, but they allow you to run 5-ish less psi and not worry about bottoming out on the rim.
I’ve been concentrating on the XC and trail versions as they are 1/2 the weight of a cushcore.
They frankly are mega easy to install and allow you to run about 5psi less w/ concern

Good to know, actually I never had issues with Cushcore but I could shed some weight…

Well technically I didn’t order this I already bought it off someone from FBMP.
Garmin 1030 Plus had my eye on this for at least a month or so and the other day he reduced it from $350 to $200. I wouldn’t have bothered since it was nearly and hour from my house south. but combined getting this with going to the MTBNJ ride today it was only 15 min heading back north on the way home with a slight detour on some local roads.
I was clearing all the data and now I know why it’s in such good shape for a slightly older model. But this is a huge upgrade from my old 810 and 520 plus.

Wouldn’t it be easier to reset to factory default?

Has anyone tried a lawn sprayer at the trailhead? Seems like the most simple solution.
