    Thinking of fitting Procore on the rear of a bike, so I only need half a set.

    For less than half the price of the full set, I can buy:

    THIS, THIS and THIS

    I don’t get the fluids and tyre levers that come in the full set, but I have all that already. and those three things are the only procore-specific bits I need, right?

    How funny, I was thinking about this just this morning after yet another snake bike on the rear of the Quarterhorse.

    From watching the install video, those three things seem to cover everything procore-specific except two small sticky labels. Tubeless tape, fluid and a rim lubricant are the only other things in the full box, as far as I can tell.

    Looks to me that it might be special ‘high pressure’ tubeless tape.

    Thought about a Huck Norris?

    Two friends tried Huck Norris and were thoroughly unimpressed

    It’s just tape, the high pressure bit is in the tube.

    Hmm. Interesting HG. That’s the only other thing I was thinking about.

    One of my riding chums is using the Huck Norris ATM, but he’s not actually known for pummelling his tyres anyway.

    protect their carbon rims!

    I been using pro core for a while and like it.
    Be trying Huck Norris this weekend….. product testing.

    The tape is a bit stiffer as the pro-core inner tube is quite high pressure. I am sure you could always locally double up over the spoke holes or use some glass fibre reinforced tape.

    Have you see how much that shop charges for postage to the UK? 😯

    I have normal stans tape in mine and it’s fine.
    From schwalbe recommended pressures, the procore tube only needs to be circa 60psi and I’m running tyres @ 17psi Fr & 19 psi rear.

    The only other thing you need is a clear sticker to go over the valve hole to aid sealing, I use a park tool super patch, (or other Manu equivalent).

    Bike24 is cheaper, but tbh next day tyres have them too. http://nextdaytyres.co.uk/search.aspx?search=pro+core

    No, but it’s ten euro to Ireland
