More protection, better control, pure trail confidence. CushCore inserts are designed to make every ride more capable without needing elite gear or crazy budgets. Plug one in and you’ll feel the difference from the first hit.

CushCore was founded in Bend, Oregon in 2017 by Adam Krefting to bring engineered solutions to mountain biking, especially for riders who want proven benefits without paying pro-team prices. From day one the goal has been to reduce impact force, protect rims and let tyres work harder without sacrificing comfort.

This foundation means every insert, tool and sealant accessory is built with real trail riding in mind. The same tech trusted by elite racers now helps everyday cyclists run lower pressures, reduce flats and ride with more traction and control.

• Impact protection: Cushioning from big hits is boosted with CushCore reducing impact forces by about fifty per cent compared to a standard tubeless set up. Riders feel fewer cracks, dents or rim damage when they hit rocks or roots.
• Improved sidewall support: Inserts stiffen tyre sidewalls so they resist folding or burping in corners. That means you can run lower pressures safely and get better traction.
• Smoother ride & less fatigue: Foam inserts help absorb shock and vibration, offering more comfort for the arms and hands. Testing shows about 11–12 per cent less overall vibration.
• Rolling efficiency: You get improved momentum because rolling resistance drops slightly even with the added protection. Forward movement feels easier when roughness is reduced.
