Hutchinson Hutchinson Fusion 3 Tubeless Road Tyre 4.2 5 130 130

For all tubeless road users Hutchinson 3rd generation tubeless tyre is really useful. No fear to run for BRM over 400km. 12 July 2010

I love these things These have to be the best performing, most comfortable clinchers I've ever used. I don't really understand why other manufacturers don't make road tubeless tyres. I'm going to try to put a set on my Ksyriums next. It'll be interesting to see how much of this performance improvement is in the wheel and how much in the tyre...I'll post an update when I know more. 09 July 2010

Into the world of tubeless To fit these tyres you'll need either 2-way fit wheels (I used Ultegra 6700s) or else a conversion kit on your old wheels to cover up the spoke holes. Fitting is not exactly easy, taking a fair amount of strength plus the use of two tyre levers to get the final part of the second bead on. Inflating can be difficult too -- see YouTube for some suggested approached. I used soapy water to help seat the bead in the rim, plus a track pump to get air into the tyre quickly enough (a hand pump is unlikely to work). Although my front tyre was OK, the back slowly deflated until I reseated and then pumped up past 120psi. You'll hear a click (well, more of a rifle shot!) or two as the bead seats, but the last noise from mine was as I passed 110psi. You can then let some air out and run at a lower pressure. The back wheel is now fine and I'm enjoying the benefits of tubeless: low rolling resistance, no pinch flats and puncture protection from Hutchinson's Protect'Air Max. 29 June 2010

Good tyre if only they actually fit I needed a large array of tools to actually get this tyre onto the wheel. Huge amount of effort. Don't know why they just don't make the tyre the right size... I would stay away from these. 29 April 2015

How does one repair a flat on a long training ride with these tyres? Is it simply a matter of fitting a normal tube? I have a set of Campag 2 Way Fit

Answer:

In theory you can fit tubes but beware that the inner wall may contain several stones etc that have self-sealed into the tyre which will puncture the new tube. Rather than tubes I now carry a small vial of No Tubes Sealant to top up if needed. If I get a puncture that does not immediately self-seal I immediately rotate the wheel so the liquid flows to the puncture area. This seems to work. Try to avoid having to remove the tyre on the road as it can be difficult to re-seat.

Answer:

Four ways :
1) You can fit a regular tube inside, which means removing the tubeless valve carefully. Messy if you have used the Hutchinson flat-proofing liquid. Remove tube and fix tyre ASAP after.
2) You can carry the pressure gas canister with flat-proofing liquid made by Hutchinson to reinflate and seal, but if it does not succeed (puncture too large, tear) you are stuck putting in a tube and it will be messy. This costs you a canister every time.
3) You can patch the inside of a CLEAN tyre - use the special patches made by Hutchinson. Slow (gluing needed), but works well and is durable. You MUST clean the area to be patched very carefully (use first aid type alcohol swabs).
4) Carry a spare tyre only.

Answer:

Always take a tube as a last resort, it will be a bit more fiddly to fit cause the tyre is a tight fit.
I have put a latex sealant in mine which should self seal, do both and you will never have to think of a long walk home.

Answer:

If the sealant doesn't seal the tire, put in a tube as you would a regular clincher rim, just be make sure the large bead of the Fusion tire doesn't pinch the tube.

Answer:

Basically yes. The following is how it works with Ultegra 6700's - I'd suggest you try it at home first on your Campags. Remove (and save) the special tubeless valve by loosening the knurled ring and pulling it out. Then fit a tube in the normal way. Even though there's no rim tape, it works fine as there are no spoke holes.

If you use some sealant inside the tyre, most punctures will mend themselves (enough to get you home anyway) and you won't have to do the above.

Answer:

Yes mostly tubeless will lose there pressure a little more than a tyre and tube though the better you buy the better they will be. having said that when not being used for some time it will lengthin the life of a tubeless tyre to let the pressure down, ie when in storeage and such, hope this helps.

Alexemo77

Answer:

The reason inner tubes go flat is because the rubber eventually bleeds air through the material. If you get a good seal between the wheel and tyre they should be better at holding the air then a inner tube due to the thickness of the carcass.

tomasdelamodesto

California central valley

Answer:

These tyres are a tight fit on all rims because of the tubeless bead but they will work on any rim. However if you want to be tubeless then you will need either tubeless rims or convert your standard rims with Stans notubes equipment.

If you use them on standard rims on their own then they are just like any other tyre and will need a tube.

Wheeledwidewebb

Broadstairs

Answer:

No you don't. Tubeless road tyres can be fitted to any rim as long as you can get an airtight seal - you might need to use some tape along the base of the rim to get a good seal as well as some tubeless sealant (like Stans). All tubeless specific rims do over and above normal rims is make it easier to mount the tyre and provide a better rim to create the initial seal.

Answer:

Possibly not - you can buy a conversion kit which involves using 2 layers of special rim tape and a lot of sealant. But far better IMHO to use dedicated tubeless rims with a specially-shaped lip and no spoke holes.
