Justin Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Hi What is the preferred puncture prevention option? The hard tape on the inside of the tire or the gel that is pumped into the tube? Thanks
BigGuy Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 If you ride Babba's its best to go with a solid rubber wheel.
Mudsimus Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 use both. No dont. It will be as heavy as hell. And that liner will cause more problems. Listen to me. Go tubeless.

Just get a decent sealant then.
BigGuy Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 ...Thats like using two condoms at once... Never even thought of that one before. Will give it a try tonight.
BigGuy Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 My training wheels = Mavic Crossland (with worn bearings and free-hub) + Slime ultra tubes + half bottle slime + Kenda SB8. Front wheel = 2.6kg, rear = 2.8kg. And I still get flats...
