Mbot Posted November 14, 2009 Share Hi guys Please help me with a few things I am still in the dark about.... Whats a good weight for a mountainbike, not just the frame, a ready to go bike. How often should you clean and wax your chain, and with what? Tubeless tyres - how do you fix the punctures? Thank yous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaco-fiets Posted November 15, 2009 Share My 2c1. Anything below 10kg for a hardtail2. I clean and lube my chain about 2x per month on the rd and mtb. Use a chaincleaner with prepsol to clean. 3. U buy a tubeless repair kit. Think it about R110. It looks like the gators they put in your car tyres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbot Posted November 15, 2009 Share OOOh now I made a mess of the tubeless tyres. I got a puncture, and I have those racing bike valves. So I poured the new slime just in at the side of the wheels. But now it doesnt want to inflate again??? What am I doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted November 15, 2009 Share below 10kg is very light for a ht. Have seen R25000 carbon ht's thats 10.5kg. Silverback surplus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted November 15, 2009 Share you can lube after every ride. If u use a good lube you don't have to clean the chain that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
