Using this Maxxis Ardent Race Tire is easy. First, make sure your bike's rim is compatible with tubeless tires. Install the tire on the rim and add a suitable tubeless sealant. For best performance, inflate the tire to 60 PSI. When riding, you'll notice how well it rolls on hard - packed ground and grips when cornering. As for maintenance, regularly check the tire pressure and the condition of the tread. If you get a small puncture, the tubeless sealant should seal it automatically.
