Effetto Mariposa – Espresso Tyre Sealant

Espresso is an inflate & repair cartridge for the demanding cyclists and racers.

As a running change during the last months of 2010, Espresso has passed from the initial button-less functioning to a more traditional activating button. Previous design was very clean, but we discovered that its functioning wasn’t intuitive enough for cyclists in the heat of the race. The passage to the new button guarantees a fool-proof functioning while keeping all the exclusive features of Espresso.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Multi-purpose: Espresso is perfect for both road and off-road applications, fixing punctures on tube-type, tubeless and tubular tyres.

User-friendly: the flexible silicone tube of the nozzle fits directly on Presta valves, allowing the use of Espresso even with spokes close to the valve area or lenticular/road disk wheels (an exclusive feature!).

Clean: thanks to a direct connection between the valve and cartridge, the special repairing foam (Caffélatex based) goes straight into the tyre, without leaks.

Ideal also for lenticular wheels

Fast: Less than one minute is needed to inflate and repair tyres with sizes ranging from 700x20c (20-622) up to 26×2.50 (62-559).

Ammonia-free: puncture-sealing action is ensured by ammonia-free Caffelatex sealant, optimized for the pressurized application. Espresso doesn’t damage Caffélatex, if already prensent inside the tyre, but enhances its action.

Dosage: one Espresso cartridge for one tire. Presta valve only.

Pressure: Espresso can inflate a road tyre up to 5 bar and a mountain-bike tyre over 2 bar. It’s possible to add more pressure after using Espresso cartridge.

Size: cartridge (75 ml, 155 mm tall x 35 mm diameter).
