Bit of a conumdrum - been running USTs (dry) for quite some time and have only once had to resort to using a compressed air cartridge. Last night I decided the time was right to convert to Stans - I've got a new wheelset with a leaky rim.
Could I pump the tyres up with a track pump? No, I could not. I have tried lubing them with soapy water, frame polish (recommended by a pro mechanic - normally works) and seating them dry - nada.
I'm now looking at compressors online and muttering "Tools. Man. Grrr."
So tell me - how do you do yours?
