Flat Tire Defender announced as new sponsor to Madison Saracen and Danny Hart

Flat Tire Defender is pleased to announce that it is a new official sponsor to Madison Saracen and double world champion Danny Hart for the 2019 downhill mountain bike season.

The clever foam inserts for mountain bike tyres are a firm favourite among some of the best mountain bikers in the world, including Aaron Gwin and Tracey Moseley. Now they have officially added the ‘Redcar Rocket’ to the already impressive roster of supported athletes alongside team-mates Matt Walker and Alex Marin.

Danny Hart and co will now benefit from racing with the industry-leading tyre insert that will not only prevent mid-race flats but will also help to protect rims and wheels.  Flat Tire Defender® is made of ‘High Density’ foam material and provides an impact resistance ‘Bump Stop’ protection layer between the tyre sidewall and rim edge, which has proven to minimize sidewall cuts, pinch flats and rim damage.

On the announcement, Danny Hart had this to say about his new sponsors: “I am really enjoying using the Flat Tire Defender, I have only started using it this off season. I first tested it at Fort William and I loved it straight away, the thing I like the most about it is that it really deadens the track. Fort William was a great place for me to test it as it is one of the roughest tracks around. It allowed me to push in sections where I was a little nervous in the past. I don't use this system for extra rim protection, however that is always a benefit!”

Keep an eye out for Danny Hart and the Madison Saracen Team this year as the World Cup season kicks off this weekend in Maribor.
