I realize this product is mounted on the seat tube. Is it firm enough to clear the rear tire If filled? I realize there are load limitations.

I haven't had a problem with that at all, but I ride a road bike. Basically, if it were to go low enough to touch my tire it would sit right on top of my brakes rather than touch the tire. The bottom strap locks in to the top of the A-frame above the wheel and brakes, so it can't go lower than that. I think you'll be fine.

I use the large saddle bag on a recumbent trike so it sits on a rack over the rear wheel. Not sure that I understand your question, however, the bottom of the bag is flat and contains some supportive sheets-but it is not really rigid. If attached to the seat post on an upright I could imagine it sitting happily on a rear fender. LS

Yes it is. I have it on a 27 inch Fuji cycle cross. It has enough room for tube, car keys, my wallet, C o2 cartridge with its pump.

It is well clear of the brakes. I suppose if your seat is very low, you unzip and expand the bag fully, and have something very heavy inside the bag causing it to hang down even further it could potentially create a problem. But I would have to guess that in 99% of normal circumstances with the seat at a normal height, the bag is no where near the rear tire.

This bag holds it's shape well and the Velcro determines the lower limit. If you are worried about the tire you may want to try the medium or small as the bag is expandable downward. That Said I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I like this bag.

My bag is well above the rear tire. In fact, it is even above the rear reflector so I didn't have to move the reflector onto the bag. If I expanded it, the bag it would probably block the reflector, but still be nowhere near the tire. I guess it will also depend upon how high your seat is raised, but I just don't think it will be an issue.

i tied a shoe string to the loops on the bottom of the bag and secured it to the framework in the seat for some added stabilization. It has a strap that will also run through the seat structure. The shoe string keeps it stable from side movement

yes, I have 29" tires and it is firm enough to clear the rear tire even when fully extended.

i can't say for sure, but i think the compressed air would be too much for a bicycle tire. i think this is more of an automotive Kit.

I don't think you will like the result - the key to this thing is a narrow rim and a tire that you can barely squeeze over the tube. I suspect you will have lots of "play" in the tire and it will be unusable.

I have used it to pump the front fork on my bike up to 60lbs so I'm sure it would do that on a tire too. My only complaint with it would be that it takes between 2-300 pumps just to get my tires up to about 45 or 50lbs, but that should be expected from a small pump. So pretty much, muscle endurance is more important than big muscles with this pump.

Sure, but bicycle tires quickly inflate, so be mindful to turn the unit off when the Tire feels full!

Possibly. I have this rack myself. The bike would be tilted extremely high on the rear tire side and the weight distribution might compromise how sturdy the bike would stay whole driving.

As far as filling, the one I got is fairly firm and stuffing doesn't seem to move around, I don't think using it as a body pillow would do too much harm to it.

I am sorry. I have not applied my supply, yet. I believe that it is too expensive to be used on tires. One of the comments about this product was written by a person that indicated that he is in the auto detail business or something similar. He says a lot about the application and use. You may want to see other comments posted on Amazon.

The Frame is sturdy, so if you are above average in weight you might want to consider inflating the tires a little more. If you are very large, you may find the seat uncomfortable. As with any exercise, you should always consult your physician before beginning a new regimen.

No at all!, in my experience I use to pump up my tires at maximum recommended (85psi) in Michelin World Tour and I didnt have problems, Of course I use the Michelin tube "Michelin Airstop" and "Avenir Threaded Presta 48Mm Valve Tube"... The Tuffy Bicycle protection is great for ride for everywhere...

I don't have the low rider attachment I have the seat post clamp so I can't really say, but my dog is very strong she could probably make the back tire slide sideways, but I think the key is to keep your dog moving fast so they don't have time to think about doing anything else.

Did you ever find a answer? Trying to figure this out myself, the tires seem to be the weak point!

Yes, to alleviate this, make sure seat post is free of grease & dust. It also depends on how much weight you have in the back. I've mastered giving it a nudge to put it back in alignment while riding...A minor inconvenience on a less than 50 mile ride. If you're going to be planning and extended trip I'd suggest a fixed rack. I bought the Topeak 29'er rack which also accommodates the MTX trunk bag.

That's the size tire I have on my trailer, the stem is offset about 30 degrees, has worked fine. But remember to inflate after mounting, deflate completely while holding on to the valve stem (remove core) and re-inflate while still holding stem, so tube will be inflated in that position.

You would need to get a hitch extender. Something like this to clear the back tire: 12" Trailer Hitch 2" Square Class III Extension Adapter Towing Extender #5000 lbs

Unlikely. It might keep some water and mud off your back but it doesn't block the whole tire.

I had no problem at all. You can always buy some "spoons" to help mount the tires. They only cost a couple of dollars and I carry them in my bag in case I get a flat.
