Tubeless tire tips

1.  Tubeless sealant dries out, refresh 1-2 times a year.

2.  Fill or remove air above 3 and 9 o'clock, so you don't affect the sealant or suck it out of the valve which will lead to clogs.

3.  Various tire pressure calculators can guide you.  Lower is faster and more comfortable, a prime reason to go tubeless.  Unless you are absolutely certain rim and tire are approved otherwise, do not exceed 75psi on a road tubeless tire.

4.  A bad slash can be repaired in the field by removing the valve, inserting a tube and using a dollar bill as a barrier between slash in tire and the tube otherwise the friction will pop tube quickly.

We are not fans of saddle bags on cool bikes.  This is the tool kit we carry on road and gravel bikes.  And a similar kit in our Camelbak on mountain bike rides.  Small, efficient and rarely needed with tubeless set ups.  Find out more from our clinics, or visit the shop!
