When they say pour it into the tyre don't inject it through the valve they mean it.
Had a bugger of a job getting on some new continental tyres and rimpact. Didn't realise it was meant to be poured in so tried injecting it in, now it has blocked my "injector". Decided to wait until after lunch to see if I can get bead off to pour some in.
Doesn't that make it a total pain to top up?
They do some rejuvenator liquid that can be injected.
But I am a bit stuck now, I don't know how the **** I am going to get this bead off the rim
If it blocks valves and is a massive PITA to top up, it can’t be better than Stan’s/Orange Seal/Revo/whatever? Presumably there’s also a Silca tax?
I bought it for higher pressure tyres where stans doesn't work very well in my experience.
I am regretting using it on my mountain bike now, wish I had just stuck to stans.

You were going to encounter that issue at some point, may as well get some practice now 😀 Certain rims that are shaped to hold the bead in place are a right pita to remove tyres from with an insert.

Wheel off the bike, flat on the ground, 2 feet, stand on the tyre at opposite sides of the wheel, bit of a balancing act, bounce on it once or twice, has never failed to break the bead, even with cushcores inserted and has never damaged the wheel. Flip the wheel over to break the bead on the other side if removing a tyre.
