Tubeless De-Rimming: How to Fix On Trail


Shepherd

Recommended Posts

demmit....how do you know?

 

Constant referral back to smashing some lagers....which with enough consumption makes you very slim - thus you must be an engineer. The steps followed to become very slim allows little room for declining a larger.....sound process planning. My conclusion thus - process engineer. I am however working on my consumption to also become an engineer.

Sounds good....

 

Monday afternoon (20 Jan).

Fratellies parking lot at 16h30.

We head up to Emma/Albert's and back (you may have to wait for me on uphills as I'll only be on a 26" play bike, it's been declared just how slow we are).

Get back to the parking lot. Bust that bead, then I guess you'll have to do at least a rotation or 2 on it flat.

I fix busted bead with only bits out of my CamelBak (handpump, water, possibly remove the valve core...)

We eat pizza & enjoy a beer or two.

Done by 20h00'ish.

Agreed. (IF it works).

 

We just need a time and place for this to happen.

I'm not sure where you guys are based in JHB, but what about Fratellies parking lot?

We could do a ride, then the experiment, then pizza n beer?

 

Also, there is an Engen just up the road if it does fail.

 

This is a lekker idea :thumbup:

I don't have/own any 29r wheels to practice on. ;)

So my plan is just to make it work on the day.

 

Edit: Could we do Sunday Feb 2? I try to get out on the dirt bike on Saturdays...

But if the 1st suites everyone else then lets do that.

So to start mil will have his handpompie in his quiver....chucks or me will deflate and break the bead on the current tubeless converted setup. Mil will have a go, he succeeds, we bow down...smash some lagers and talk about the legend that is mil Mil fails...we give him a extra cup of sealant...still with handpompie...Mil succeeds, we still bow down and smash lagers. Mil fails...we give him a footpump...big air joe from topeak...Mil succeeds, we are impressed and smash lagers. Mil fails again...we give him one bomb....Mil succeeds, he is still a legend since it requires some skill, but have been done...lagers are still being smashed Mil fails again...we give him 2 bombs...Mil succeeds, we are not impressed but neither do we point and laugh...lagers flowing as per previous steps Mil fails again...we get out the compressor and do the conversion....we point and laugh but then again, we might be so dronk that we will be laughing at ourselves.

This should be good humor guys.

 

Maybe a TR conversion deathmatch once we get the format right....get the top mech from the local bike shops to come and earn some street cred....against some weekend "spanner swaaiers" like us
