Cassie Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Just stating the obvious....haven't had a pucture in 4 years now!! I purposefully aim for thorns nowdays...
Cav' Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Start taking your bike off road and not on the tar..... Help.Me. and M L 2
Bianchi Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 For the win!11 thorns in the last two months (yeah, somewhere along my regular route I seem to gather them quite often) and not one deflated tyre.
Peewee1 Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Also depends what tires you're using doesn't it? I also haven't had any noticeable holes in my tires since I started using tubeless.
Help.Me. Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 For 4 years not much tread missing............ Lexx 1
Lexx Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 maybe he is only riding the bike on the indoor rollers?
Bianchi Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 For 4 years not much tread missing............ You have a valid point maybe he is only riding the bike on the indoor rollers? In that case it would have been a slick now. :whistle:But yeah, no punctures that way.
Iron Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Wish i had your luck , im averaging a puncher every two weeks at the moment . think my tires have more plugs in them than tread .
Cav' Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Wish i had your luck , im averaging a puncher every two weeks at the moment . think my tires have more plugs in them than tread .ditto
Cassie Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 Start taking your bike off road and not on the tar..... 90% = off road...(except the route I cycle to get there!!)Perhaps the offroad scene here is still relatively thorn free? Compared to upcountry? Cav' 1
Cassie Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 For 4 years not much tread missing............ For 4 years not much tread missing............ My bad...4 years of being tubless...second set of Conti's...
Vetseun Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 You just jinxed yourself ! Now you will get punctures.
Guest Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Wish i had your luck , im averaging a puncher every two weeks at the moment . think my tires have more plugs in them than tread . Rookie hitting all the wrong lines? Help.Me. 1
Vetseun Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) Also depends what tires you're using doesn't it? I also haven't had any noticeable holes in my tires since I started using tubeless.I used two sets of Conti tires. A race king and a mountain king. One set per year for two years. Not one single puncture in two years. I put Rocket Rons on and average a puncture per week.. Edited October 15, 2012 by THE BLOODY AGENT ChUkKy and Cassie 2
