Procore actually DOES help against burping and rolling, contrary to what the Cushcore chart says. It's also lighter AND it does protect against pinch flats.
But Cushcore doesn't look bad, too. Especially for park bikes it might be a low maintenance option.
Their website however states, that it should be swapped for a new foam ring every two tires. It has a "service life" as most other performance products, or so the website says.
If you ride a lot, that's not a lot of product life for a 149$.
Not destroying your rims constantly saves a lot of $ though. So maybe it's not that expensive.
