    Following on from my Stans thread anyone used this at all ? Or any other alternative to Stans that doesn’t crystallise in the tyre or go solid in the bottle !

    I run this on two 650b bouncy bikes and a 3.8″ fatbike.

    Downsides:
    Requires more sealant than stans to run because it’s a lot thicker.
    Your rim tape needs to be spot on. It’s crap at sealing anything on the rim bed.
    Tends to work better at 25+psi on the 650b’s, and 12psi+ on the fatbike.
    More expensive

    Upsides:
    It’s closed slashes that stans wouldn’t have touched.
    It really doesn’t dry out, and when any of the moisture has evaporated, I’ve just mixed more water in with it and mixed it up by hand.

    Honestly, it’s good but not good enough to justify the cost. I’ll probably end up going back to stans at some point.
    Their fork lube & chain lube however are utterly superb.
