Pipsqueak Posted June 6, 2016 Share Why do Schwalbe tyres do this - weep sealant? Every one I've had. The Onza and the Hutchinson on the front wheels never do, or any other tyre I've had. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipsqueak Posted June 6, 2016 Share That looks like an old nobby nic. May be old sealant in there?No, I'm pretty pedantic with sealant. Old tyre, up to date dose of sealant. The Ralph is a new tyre, same story. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NukeproofPeanut Posted June 6, 2016 Share I think it has to do with not enough fiber/glitter/solids to block the hole. My HD and Rock Razor did the same thing (I'm using some other funny green sealant), I've since retired the HD, but the Rock Razor is still on the back. The Razor, beside doing that, was battling to seal some cuts I had from a Downhill event, so opened it up and found the sealant fibers had congealed into two balls.Added some more sealant, making sure to hold it upside down to let the fibers out 1st and no issues since. No wet patches either! IMG_3102.jpgWhy do Schwalbe tyres do this - weep sealant? Every one I've had. The Onza and the Hutchinson on the front wheels never do, or any other tyre I've had.

Meezo Posted June 6, 2016 Share I've seen Onza's do the same thing. Maxxis on my commuter do the same thing, continental's protection and non protection tyres do the same thing... ...so these are the tyres are currently that including now the Schwalbe's which tyres don't do it?

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 6, 2016 Share deg·ra·da·tionˌdeɡrəˈdāSH(ə)n miskien? Miskien Stans. Brand new sealant in both front and back. Maybe it just separates teh H2O from the rest of the stuff, and that weeps. Capricorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipsqueak Posted June 9, 2016 Share deg·ra·da·tionˌdeɡrəˈdāSH(ə)n miskien? My Onza tyres have never wept. The sealant in these tyres is Stans - always a new dose. Some other tyres have oozed, but then they stop when the walls get saturated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enduro_Jakes Posted June 9, 2016 Share IMG_3102.jpg Why do Schwalbe tyres do this - weep sealant? Every one I've had. The Onza and the Hutchinson on the front wheels never do, or any other tyre I've had. Had this issue with Conti's that came with my bike. We got past it by mixing Tube sealant in with the normal sealant... With the tube sealant being much thicker, it sealed the side walls and stopped the weeping. Took a top up or three and 2-3 weeks to seal them completely but it works well...Also seemed to help for bigger punctures where the normal sealant didn't want to seal. Since switched to Onza Ibex front and rear, 6 months, no weeping... But they have the FRC sidewalls which are thicker and probably helps. Also, I personally don't use Stans, Personally find the batches are too inconsistent, one batch is basically just water and the next sludge... Joke is that the local suppliers water the stuff down to make more money...but who knows! Sticking with Tyre Juice, seals the wheels every time!

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 9, 2016 Share http://enduro-mtb.com/en/the-best-enduro-tire-seven-combos-in-comparison/ Wish Schwalbe had sent the Rock Razor instead of the Nobby Nic for the rear, or at lease sent it in trailstar guise.... But interesting comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But interesting comparison. i dont think it was Schwalbe's fault: the test is predicated on a pairing for all conditions. The RR fails when it gets wet, and that's not yet getting to the muddy conditions. Here's the testers perspective: For the rest of us, the pleasure comes from being out riding rather than spending a disproportionate amount of time in the shed changing tires. The ideal tire combination therefore shouldn’t just unite the optimal balance of grip, puncture resistance and minimal rolling resistance, but it should also be able to perform on a multitude of terrains and in various conditions – wet or dry, rocky or muddy.
