Tannus Anmeldelser 

Sick of punctures and having a seemingly high attrition rate of getting them I've bit the bullet and fitted a pair of these.

Having put a few miles on them now in the dry and wet I can say they roll and grip as well as my gator skins. I used to run a lower PSI of around 100 and can't say I notice the tyre to be too much firmer so comfort is still there. Well as comfortable as road biking gets anyway.

I plumped for the Melon Green colour as I have green accents on my bike and, I think, it looks cool.

The tyres are a complete sod to fit and I hope I never have to remove them for wheel maintenance but I found resting the rim and tyre on a cushion and using some gentle persuasion with a rubber mallet and the supplied S tool I was able to drive the retaining pins home fairly easy come the end.

All in all the price was the delaying factor in buying these but one puncture too many and having a John Cleese as Basil Fawlty moment with my bike at the side of the road was the push it took. Hopefully ill be trouble free for the foreseeable.

Received the tyres within 3 working days and I really like their product. The new slick tyres were not straightforward to install but once installed it feels quite nice riding with them. I am not really that bothered by the vibrations, and the tyres are indeed almost impossible to damage. Very satisfied.

Great product and fast service,will recommend

Tannus.co.uk didn't have the tyre I had originally ordered in stock (despite website saying it was in stock).
However, I did get a personal phone call to let me know, and to offer an alternative, which was fine by me.
Delivery was within 48 hours despite the stock problem, so I was happy.
Fitting the tyre was hard work, but not complicated. Took 1 hour and I scraped the skin off a couple of my knuckles! I'll do better next time.
After approx 15 miles of riding, I'd say the tyre gives a slightly harder ride than expected, but easily tolerable. And I'd also note the tyre causes the bike to slip very slightly to the side when riding over bumps & ridges. I haven't worked out why! It doesn't seem to be a problem when cornering though.

Using these Tannus tyres has been an absolute revelation. No more tyre levers, pumps, inner tubes, patches and glue. No more standing in the rain wrestling with an obstinate tyre and a filthy wheel. Best of all, no more of that anxiety about the dreaded 'p' word that plagues all cyclists. Yes, the tyres are a bit tricky at first but I've now done 6 of them and it's a breeze. yes the ride feels a touch harsh at first but soon you hardly notice. Rough roads are - well, rough - but on smooth tarmac these tyres really fly. They run noticeably true as well, cornering at speed as if on rails. I can't see myself ever going back to pneumatics, if I'm honest. Oh, and great service from the Tannus team: speedy delivery and prompt no-questions-asked returns on the one occasion I needed it through my own fault. A fantastic product...and what a relief!

First tyre was a real effort to put on, especially trying to suss out which insert to use and there is a bit of a technique to putting them in. Getting the tyre on the rim was a pain and quite long clipping into position. Second tyre on the other hand was a dream, no problem at all once you have established a bit of a technique. Once they are on they look really cool as well. I went for the superman blue as Ricky called it and they suit my bike which is a navy blue and carbon colour.

The ride...
Solid and firm but I have a trek road bike which is super stiff anyway so not much diffence on a flat surface. Only an issue if you go over a road which isnt nice and flat, it does literally feel like the its going to vibrate the bike apart. Lucky enough you dont get many sections of road like that in London and the tarmac is fairly decent.
I ride about 10 miles each way to work and I don't find the ride anymore or less comfortable. The bike does feel a bit quicker, not sure if it is my imagination though.

Grip is just the same in my opinion so nothing to report there. Didn't really feel in anymore danger in that respect. I do feel a lot safer when riding down hills though knowing my tyre isn't going to explode when doing 30-40mph! Also safe in the knowledge I'm not going to get stuck in the rain changing a puncture.

Overall I would say buy these tyres if you are riding a road bike. They really are excellent. Can't comment on mountain bikes though as I haven't tried them.
5 star product and service

The tyres arrived promptly. However, the tools for installation are very inadequate. I had to really hunt around to fin the p-tool (very scarce availability, which is bad logistics and planning) for installation and had to resort to my DIY toolbox to find suitable tools to get the tyre beads onto the rim, as the standard simple tool just would not work. Now the tyres are on, they are OK

The tyres are great, but they don't send any automated emails after you order so you are left wondering if everything is going OK or not...they also only sent half my order, and then failed to send the other half the the requested revised address. Luckily it also arrived late so coincidentally ended up in the right place!

Easy to order from, fast delivery.

I was initially put off by the price, but after yet another puncture, I went for it and bought a pair of semi-slick tyres in melon green. They were pretty difficult to fit, but once you get the hang of it you can definitely fit them yourself.

They were worth every penny. I commute 8 miles each way. The ride is firm but comfortable, they do well on a wet road and I haven’t noticed any real difference in speed. The reassurance of not worrying about punctures is amazing. I’ve already pulled a couple of bits of glass out of them, that would definitely have punctured conventional tyres.

I would highly recommend them to anyone who is fed up of fixing punctures.

Ok, so recently ordered 2 slick Tannus tyres. I received 2 fitting packs, one of which was wrong, but Tannus quickly sent a replacement, so no problem. The tyres weren't too easy to fit, but I got there 😃. Larger size tyres or bigger rims may well be easier to fit. Today was my first commute. No difference on smooth surfaces but a bit harsh on rough tarmac, but not having to worry about punctures in the dark when my fingers are lumps of ice makes it totally worthwhile! Speed possibly down by a mph or two, but still worth fitting to a commuting bike. The ride would need to be a little less harsh for me to consider fitting to my other bikes.

The tyres are very good. All experience was good, since sale to delivery. Congratulation.

My tyres are totally reliable. I have not experienced any puncture despite having objects being embedded on my tyres. Many thanks for inventing punctureless tyres.

Fantastic product. I commute 20 miles daily through central London and have been using them for two years. I feel sad for those cyclists I see mending punctures in the dark and rain and I promote the product whenever I can.

Great, as long as you are a commuter.

I brought my first pair of Tannus tyres about three years ago.

I was previously using Gator Skin Hard Shell tyres and I was getting punctures roughly every two to three weeks. Switched to the Tannus and didnt get any. Obviously.

Tannus have one, and only one, advantage. They DO NOT PUNCTURE.

They are more expensive than regular "tough" tyres, they have worse grip, they give you a much "harder" ride. They are a pain to get off, and on the rims. They are slower than regular tyres as well.

But they DONT PUNCTURE.

I love them and have purchased a second set already.

The back tyre usual is good for 6000 miles, with all the weight of a pannier or two on it ever day. The front can usually muster 10000 miles before its worn down.

I would recommend these to anyone who does a regular daily commute and suffers regular punctures. I would especially recommend just putting a Tannus on the rear and keeping a regular tyre on the front. Its the best compromise on my opinion.

"2 stars: Poor – an inadequate experience with a lot of friction" - Literally. I tried these on my Dutch commuting bike and they made it MUCH harder to pedal. It may be because I'm quite heavy (bike and I together are well over 100kg), and/or the relatively wide 32mm tires, but I couldn't build up any speed without huge effort, and quite soon replaced them with the next best thing in puncture resistance: Schwalbe Marathon Plus.

I was always looking for a tyre that would not puncture as I did not like the hassle of ever having to stop and fit a new tube in the cold dark and rain ,where your hands would be numb and to be honest it's a palava
Many would think this tyre is slow but it's exactly the same as a tyre with air my journey times are the same as I used to use schwalbe marathon plus as they are level 6 but the tannus is the highest level of tyre you can get
If you want peace of mind no pumps or tubes to carry forget tubeless set up with the gluey stuff that you pour into the tyre tannus beats all that trouble
If your even a casual cyclist you can put tannus tyres on and leave your bike in the garage for months and one day you want to start cycling you go to get the bike and no need to check tyre pressure as these are solid
Even a nail can't stop you from getting to work and home in good time
If your saving your train fare for the month
Mine 225.00 you might aswell buy a pair of these and then you can use a pair for at least 3 to 4 years what a saving and no hassle
Your also keeping fit saving time money and being green it's a no brainer
Go and buy a pair for your bike now

I purchased Tannus tyres for both my winter bike and my hybrid bike and have been very pleased with them. I don't think they are intended to be a replacement for a lightweight racing tyre. They are more aimed at commuting and social cyclists, rather than those seeking the lightest most responsive tyre.

I find they give a slightly harsher ride than traditional puncture resistant tyres such as gatorskins, but you soon adapt. The certainty of knowing you are not going to suffer a puncture is fantastic.

I‘m very happy about the quality and longevity of the Tires, but the Customer Service and the Time‘s of Delivery are a big Problem.
The next Thing is the difficulty to uptain the Tires in a other Lands that‘s not England, I hope that in the near future you will increase your number of stores and improve shipping.

A bit tricky to get on the rim single handed. Worked out that gradually securing the tyre on the rim with tie raps worked like an extra paid of hands.
Getting the pins to click into the rim takes a bit of practice.

In use the tyres are great, but I’m no speed merchant. Proper racing cyclists may give a different opinion.
The big advantage is no pre-cycle “punction repair checklist” (check the pressure, got pump, spare tube, tools, repair kit...). Just get on the bike and peddle - 15 minutes off my journey right there!
