Title: Should You Go Tubeless? - Standard Vs. Tubeless Tires Post by: Brad on September 29, 2009, 09,56:16 PM Is anyone running a tubeless kit to convert your standard tube/tire system into a tubeless tire system?
If so whats the feedback less flats or what? Also if I got a flat with a tubeless setup could I pop a tube in or is the tyre now rim locked on? Title: Re: Should You Go Tubeless? - Standard Vs.

If you run a sealant inside then the only way you should be able to get a flat is if the tyre gets a large cut, in which case you may be just as stuffed as with a tube set-up. There are tyre plugs for small holes in the tyre. Putting a tube in after a flat is probably not going to work unless you ditch the tubliss and they don't seem to be a compact thing to carry out with you on the bike. |
