Hello

I am so frigggin tired of flatting twice a week on my commuter roadbike..... I run michelin carbon 23mm tires on, and they absolutely cant
cope with the tons of glass in the street of Copenhagen,( i live in a minefield of bars....)not too bad)
So how do i cheapest make them fx tubeless??
I have great succes with my DT rim strip set up on my mountainbike.

But i like to do this kinda cheap. And does it work for 700 wheels (mavic aksium)

So any ideas ???

Don't even think about it - all reports I've seen of converting normal road tyres have been of failure due to tyres blowing off rims with the higher pressures. Get some slime tubes instead - that and heavier duty tyres.
