Going Tubeless

<< < (2/3) > >>

ktmdude:
I run them front and rear on the 300xc with a trials tire on the back. They do leak a bit, but not for a week or so. I run 8psi with no problem. I do not have any complaints, but I have only had them for a few months. I didn't have any trouble mounting them, I just watched video and did it like they said. I say give'm a shot.

Larry,

I have a set, maybe we can work out a trade. they do leak, so I wasn't up to the task of remembering to check the air pressure every time I rode and maybe I didn't have them installed right.

I'm serious about the trade.

BDI:
I was in cycle gear and they had some of them. I got to hold them and they were not all that light. I could not see them weighing less then a standard tube. I can't see spending a $100.00 each for them. I might try the silicone and tape though, looks stupid simple enough to work.

alward25:
As long as I keep the seal tube pumped to 100 psi I have not had any problems with mine.  I checked all my pressures over two weeks ago before I left for work and I got home to day and checked the pressure and they are still solid.  I bought one for the back to try out before I dropped the coin on the front.  We will see how the first tire change goes.  I might be interested in your 21' Brian.  Let me know.

I`ve used RTV gasket silicone and duct-tape for 3 years now.
Standard 17" spoked Excel rims. No leaks, real easy tyre-changes...!
And realy cheap install.
