You could put a some kind of a gator on the inside but prepare the surface first so it sticks well. Perhaps you could plug it using those tubeless plugs? I'd also like to see other suggestions... Any advice anyone?
First: Get those cables replaced! If your chain is new and you have an old(er) or worn chainwheel and cassette/cluster you will have problems when the chain is under pressure. I'm no expert, but when you replace your chain it's best to replace the cassette/cluster as well. My advice would be to use 2 chains and swop them every 100km or every other ride so everything lasts a little longer...
It's too early to say who will win. Contador is obviously favourite, but Evans won't hand him the win, neither will Saster. I'd like to see Tony Martin up there with the big guns on the mountain stages. Maybe he should aim for overall KOM. Gonna be a great tour!
Conrad broke his collarbone!? This is not good news. Hope there is no other damage to the local lad! Get well soon dude. Can't believe they actually held the MTB. Course must have been really muddy with the rain and all...
No ways! U can have it! I have never done this race but all the reports i have heard say: Stay away if it is wet. We've had more than our fair share of rain in PE. Take your hiking boots and enjoy cleaning the mud off your bike afterwards.
