Southbound Generation 5 launch: Oryx and Kudu now come standard with Tannus Armour
Aug 27, 2025
At Southbound Bikes, we’ve always believed that fat-tyre e-bikes should be about discovering your next adventure. With the launch of our Generation 5 range, we’re taking that promise to the next level.
Our flagship Oryx and Kudu models now come standard with Tannus Armour Tyre Liners – a game-changing feature that makes your ride virtually puncture proof. Visit Tannus Armour for more info.
Unlike mousse inserts, which are completely solid, Tannus Armour is a high-tech liner that sits snugly between your tyre and your tube, adding a 15mm layer of protection against thorns, glass, sharp rocks, and anything else the trail throws your way. The genius is that you still run a regular inner tube inside the tyre – giving you the ability to adjust your pressures to suit the terrain. So deflate or pump up the pressure as you please, all while knowing that punctures are basically a thing of the past.
For South African riders, this is a serious breakthrough. Whether you’re exploring the backroads of the Karoo, cruising coastal trails, or simply commuting with confidence, the last thing you have time for is a flat tyre. With Tannus Armour, your Southbound gen5 fat tyre e-bike is tougher, safer, and ready for anything.
No other fat tyre e-bike brand in South Africa is offering this level of standard equipment – and that’s exactly why Southbound continues to lead the pack. So, get ready to ride further, harder, and with absolute peace of mind. Keep on discovering adventure with Southbound.
