I always put the tyre on dry, pump it up so the bead seats on the rim then remove the valve core, let the tyre down and inject the sealant through the valve with a syringe then pump it back up, its so much easier and less messy.
I'm glad you said something. I was like dang, there's got to be a better way... Park Tool has a great video for this and your method that I would suggest over what is recommended on the video above. Park Tool Video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6lKRYuaxLls.html
Should keep doing these how to vids Jim there still great and useful now mate we loved them better than some other channels that recommend only using park tools and have to have a air compressor GM*n this channel has come on leaps and bounds over the years
Whyte 604 my first MTB with tubeless tyres and of course I have a puncture but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get the tyre off it's like it's superglued to the rim I can't shift it any ideas?
I put my wheel/tyre in my worktop vice. Tighten it up right next to the rim so I’d spent catch the rim, but grips it right next to tyre bead. Then carefully pull the wheel towards you till it in-seats
Hi my tubeless set up leaked from the valve hole so I added ore sealant, pumped it up, went for a good ride and next time Iv come to using it it's gone flat again, leaking from the same spot, do you think I should remove the tyre and put a new valve on it ?
I’m a complete newby at this so I will ask what might be a dumb question... What do you do if you get a flat tire on a tubeless fat bike on the road in the middle of nowhere? Are you relying exclusively on the sealant to get you home or would you use some kind of patch kit to seal the tire leak as well?
Yeah you're going to get flat tires it's just inevitable; sharp rocks, giant Thorns, metal objects, whatever. You carry back up TUBES, so you can throw them in. There are also quick patch kits for your tires; they'll work in a pinch, but long-term you better repair it.
Hi, finally found a video to change tubeless tire. But my tire's glue already dried and make the edge of the tire stick-too-strong to the rim so i couldn't put the lever easily. Do you have an idea to make it easier?
It's a tiny bit risky, but you can put the edge of the tyre on a door's bottom ledge then carefully stand with your weight on the wheel's rim to crack the tyres off
My rims are mt 15 Shimano ! Tubeless ready bought with custom build. 27.5 2.35 650 b. Every time i change tyres do have too re tape or just sealant and put the knew one,s on ? As i have knew one,s i need to install . Im confused as they are tubeless ready and i dont know if i have to re tape,or just put the knew on with the sealant . any info would be appreciated as i know bugger all !
@@PinnedTV First time since i bought the bike 5 months ago ! Never had tubeless and the topics don,t answer the exact question ! Thank you now i know to be very careful ! Is it worth getting the Stans tape any way incase for future ? Is it the best tape ?
No issues with assembly for me ru-vid.comUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L but I could see where some might benefit from using an experienced bike assembler/mechanic. I'm an older rider starting back after a 10 year break. This bike exceeds my capabilities and has been easy to get comfortable riding. I'm mostly on easy trails with almost no street riding and have not been disappointed with the performance of the bike. My fitness level is far below what I previously rode with and because of that the mileage is going on the bike slowly. While I'm losing weight slowly, the bike seems to tolerate my 220 pounds just fine. The bike has been used by several family members ranging from 5'5" - 5'9".
I find this to be a complicated and messy way of changing a tire, better doing this 1) Clean the rim well 2) Put the new tire without adding sealant 3) Add new sealant through the valve core with a plastic bottle with narrow tip 4) use compressor or pump to inflate.
Honestly the only reason that prevents me from going tubeless is the mess. It just doesn't seem worth it to me as a mountain biker for a small weight saving. I know they say you can run lower pressures and not get pinch flats but I generally run my tyres at 45 psi or higher for the riding I do which isn't low enough to consider going tubeless. Not knocking it but I don't wanna be dealing with tyre sealant splashing everywhere every time I need to change a tyre. #inner/tubes/aren't/dead!!
@@PinnedTV still wondering why? can't you see your own floor? Most of us ain't got a garage or workshop to work in so, we are limited to our apartments. can't afford to be this messy.
