Hey. Sorry if this was already discussed.
How much sealant to put into 29+ tubeless tyre? I put about 100ml but air keeps coming out through the sides after it sets in. I keep turning the wheel from one side to another every 10-15 min like the tutorials say.
Thanks

I'd probably put in a bit more than 100 for a 29+ but that wont be the issue. You have enough to seal it - its the tyre & sealant thats the problem it sounds like. You'd only need more than 100ml to give it some lifespan, not to get it sealed.

100ml should be fine - is the sidewall weeping or is it leaking around the bead?

I put 150ml in mine. Maxxis Chronnicle on Scraper i45. No issues.

rabbit hole and nextie jungle fox, stans sealant and just changed chronicles to knards. The bubbles keep coming out around the bead for more than 1.5h before they would hold around 13psi pressure. Everything works but just takes so long.
Will deffo put 150ml next time.

I ended up double taping my rims on the Stache. Kept leaking on the supplied tape.
