best to use tubeless ready or UST tires – normal tires dont have the right wall structure to work without a tube also they can leak.
I have 6 bikes all tubeless – its a no brainer – ditch tubes = spend more time riding:
no more pinch flats, no more thorn punctures.
i had a thorn in a tire for 6 months before i even noticed it!
for best results use stans juice and make sure wheel rim and tire are clean for the initial set up – if you have a mavic ust rim and ust tire or Jones tubless ready or speccy 2bliss tire – they will seal and hold air for years – I have one which is still up after 2 years.
If you live near me I will show you how – Swindon Wiltshire J16 M4
