Odyssey OPTIS
A bicycle tubeless tire insert
Odyssey
OPTIS improves and enhances tubeless bicycle tire assemblies by providing a second chamber of tunable air pressure that seats the tire bead to the wheel's rim, firmly holding it in position and preventing air from escaping from the tire chamber unexpectedly. This adds a new layer of safety that both protects the rim against routine impacts, and that can also help the rider to come safely to a stop if the tire chamber is ever damaged. OPTIS allows for lower overall air pressures to be used, providing greater versatility when it comes to fine-tuning the bike’s grip and suspension to better serve the conditions on the track, trail, or road.
