Theunissa Posted February 26, 2023 Share On 2/5/2023 at 3:30 PM, MrJacques said: I bought some of the blue Fug-it from Midas. It works well, but it's a little too thick and can cause a bit of a wobble / imbalance. Can I thin it with water or would anti-freeze (glycol) be better? They have a thinner (white) cycling specific variant which I've used, and it works well, but the LBS doesn't stock it anymore. I have been riding it for 6years no wobble in my bike. How much do you add? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding to that: I use Enduro Seal, about 80ml per EXO casing, am a tall 96kg, did 6381km’s in 346 cycling activations in 2022, am only guessing that about 30-35% was on singletracks and exploring pathways as I prefer cycling to trails, yet experienced only two tyre-related ride interrupting events. There were a few ride interrupting OTB events related to speedy trails and one ribs-busting-leg-cutting errant minibus taxi, ma’ daai’s ’n ander storie...

I'm not a Scientist but 125 ml is recommended by Enduro Seal. After Six months it was Dry like a Bone. I can get 30Km/Hr on a Long Flat Section of Track and More on Downhills.
