Maxxis Re-Fuse Road Bike Training Tire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've tried a number of tires, and the Maxxis Refuse is a very nice tire. It is less expesive and less harsh than other "bulletproof" tires. However, it is often difficult to mount, and if it is not mounted properly it will come off the rim. I fill the tube a bit (this helps to avoid pinch flats), and as I work the tire onto the rim I often have to hold it in place with one hand while I fit it on with the other. Once mounted, I fill slowly to about 80 psi and check for bulges (by looking and also by feeling around both sides of the rim with my hands). If there are any, I deflate and work that spot a little more (push the tire in towards the rim and rotate a bit towards where the bulge was). If there are no bulges at 80 I continue to fill to 120, because if there's a problem I'd like to find out in my garage rather than on the road (just be ready to deflate quickly if a bulge appears, because at 120 things will blow out fast). If no problems, I'll leave the tire for a few minutes to be sure there are no slow-developing issues. Then I deflate to around 100 or 105 and go riding.
