  1. Bump
  2. If you use a UST tyre you maybe right, but for all others they seal much better if they seal directly with the BMX tube rather than directly with the rim. Also getting them to seal will be much easier as both serfaces are rubber and form a slightly tighter fit. the whole idea is to have a sealed enviroment between the tyre and BMX tube for the sealant. I think if you start including the rim as part of the 'enviroment' it just introduces more areas for failure. The stans strips are presision cut but also form a seal with the tyre. As to those Bontrager plastic trips.
  3. You can trim the overlap before mounting the tyre but it takes forever and you stand the chance of cutting skew and uneven. I thing it is much safer cutting once the tyre has been mounted and has pulled and seated the tube in place. Have not used Schwable Doc Blue sealant, so can't say....TNOSE_E2009-08-28 00:26:16

  8. Slide on with sunlight soap and water mix. once on wait to dry. If the grips don't move, ride. If they do, put a small flat screwdriver under the grip to make a gap and drop some super glue in. let dry and ride. Some grips without ends can be installed with a plastic bag between the grip and bars. put the grip on and then pull the plastic bag out. Spray paint on the inside of the grip and push on while still wet. TEST ON SMALL BIT OF GRIP FIRST! I have a few more but that shoudl get you into a situation for starters.

  18. Two words: water intrusion No more water intrusion than riding in the rain' date=' or than cleaning with soapy water! After cleaning I leave the bike in the sun for a few mins and when the chain is dry I relube... I don't worry about water intrusion because there's none. I've taken the crank off after cleaning with a WAP and there's not a drop of water inside the BB.... Once every month I relube derailleur pivots. If you're stupid enough to sit and scrub your chain for 30 minutes that your problem. I've also done that in the past. Use oil for lube... Use WAP to clean. Chains does get wet when riding anyway. WAP removes crud in seconds... If you're aiming the WAP at the seal then you need help... I stand by the WAP... and real OIL... my experience has tought me the most effective and quickest way. Nobody's opinion will change my mind. [/quote'] Ahhhh another one is turned to the dark side of power washers........ Soon there will be world domination....
