Introducing our new Race Edition inserts, optimised for racing and tested by the World’s fastest. Designed for use against the clock. Whilst we believe our regular products are still the best inserts out there for day-to-day riding, we know that the rigours of racing at the highest level has demands different from the norm.
 
Less rotational weight- our inserts already offer some of the best weight to protection ratios available, but we know that when racing at the highest level every gram counts. Race Edition weighs % less than our standard Original V2 insert to minimise any added inertia from the insert.
 
Lower profile - Race Edition inserts take up 25% less room in your tyre compared to our standard inserts. Still big enough to provide a level of damping and support to the tyre, but offering a less transformative ride feel.
 
Easier to install - When components are being changed out from race to race, outright rim protection is not as high a priority, but the inserts still play an important part in keeping air in the tyre. The lower profile also makes last minute fitting in between race runs easier.

Rimpact inserts must be used in conjunction with an insert compatible valve design.
 
Use about 25% more sealant than recommended on the bottle to ensure the extra surface area of the insert is coated with plenty of fluid to spare. Our inserts are closed cell and cannot absorb liquid however some sealant will cling to the outside of the insert requiring a slightly higher dosage. It can be injected through Rimpact Valves but is best poured directly into the tyre.
 
Please follow installation instructions prior to fitting/removing. There is a QR scan code on the packaging that will link you to the installation page of this website.
 
Disclaimer: It is not advised to run air pressures outside that of the tyre manufacturers recommendations. Failure to do so may result in injury or the premature failure of the bicycle. Rimpact does not accept any responsibility for misuse of the Rimpact insert or improper installation.
 
Rimpact Inserts are designed to work WITH Rimpact Insert Compatible Valves.
