It needs a bit of warming to soften it to go over the ends but it's fine and doesn't leak. The higher pressure is specified for the Squareback, and as you normally need to re-charge the air in the spare to use up a full bottle of water, I don't put the higher pressure in mine in the interests of the components lasting longer. The Type 34 won't need the higher pressure anyway, as it can't be loaded as much as to neeed 36psi for the rear if the spare is needed - that's the only reason the extra pressure is stated for the Squareback.
