Runbikeswim Posted August 17, 2015 Author Posted August 17, 2015 Found no leaks... Re did tubless with gorilla tape... Again see no leaks. Will see what 5am holds
Boerklong Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I had the same issue on my wife's wheels, the duct tape reacted with the sealant in lifted of the rim, I suggest you replace the duct tapethis. Saw the same on duct tape. Made air pockets too. Changed it out with Gorilla tape and problem was solved.
Pete the Pirate Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Some tyre / rim combinations for better than others.I have had tyres that stay inflated for months with no sealant and some that flat overnight.What tyres and rims are you using and what brand of sealant?
fanievb Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Found no leaks... Re did tubless with gorilla tape... Again see no leaks.

Runbikeswim Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 Wtb tires (3.0) and giant trance 2 standards rims
Runbikeswim Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 Commuted to work today so sofar so good
Pete the Pirate Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Awesome.Seated WTB tyres on Stans Rims a few weeks ago. Used a track pump - easy.They have remained well inflated until today.Sometimes just plain riding is the answer to spread the sealant around and squish those leaks. You may also want to top up your sealant level a little through the valve as not to mess with your hard earned seal.Good luckSafe and happy cycling
