Now let me not bore you all with a tale of woe and sadness such as has not been told since Bill Shakespeare's time! Suffice to say that I have been having "difficulty" with getting my wife's new MTB front tyre (tubeless) to inflate.

 

 

 

After a few bottles of tyre sealant, a lot of time, 4 trips to my LBS, I finally watched THIS video and the scales fell from my eyes. I finally know how to get these damn tubeless tyres to work.

 

 

 

My wife's bike stands downstairs on fully inflated tyres now and I am about to watch a movie that has been patiently waiting (along with my wife) for me to finish.

I did the same in Decenber and, even if I have to say so myself, became quite an expert. I keep looking for excuses to do it again.

 

 

 

It also means that, if you are willing to waste some sealant (and have the time), you can change tires for different circumstances or terrain without having more than one wheelset.

Thanks for pointing us to this video! I have been struggling to seal some of my wheels as well. This has pointed out some techniques I haven't tried. smiley20.gif
