4 Oz is for normal bicycle tires! I use half of this bottle on my 20x4.0 tires ( as recommended by slime themselves and Mr Taffy or else for this size or Motorcycle). So with normal fat tires , you can basically use the whole bottle

Slime has a calculator on their website. It calculated 9.4 oz for my 26" x 3" tire.

Very very helpful! Thnk you,and i know you didnt, but i like how a problem arose when you were fixing it. Cuz it always happens! But never in any videos. It always seems to go perfectly and i feel like an idiot when i have other problems while i fix it lol. Thnx again

Did you need to change the inner tube after using slime or it was just good as new ?

@@MrInternational17 So far, good as new. Holding the air perfectly. No leaks whatsoever. But, was a very slow leak in the first place likely due to a grass thorn.

I would be terrified to ride further than t he end of my driveway if my bike was doing that. I only had like 160 mi on my bike. Never had any problem. Im about 3 mi from home. WHam. Back tire goes flat. Look, Im 70 yrs old and Im 3 mi from home. Old lady is down at the beach. (Good place for her) Kids are who knows where) Im walking. I negotiate a place to leave my bike. The next day Im reading how to take tire off. Thats a "Nogo" It aint happening. So I snatch innertube out from between gears and spokes etc. I pump up a little bit. I can hear it. I see it. A tiny hole that looks like a whisker. I mean it. How coould that thing be blowing air like that. I cant even get 5lb pressure! So I get a patch kit. Put that cement down, and put one of thise orange patches down. Its been 3 days. I keep squeezing it. Its hard as a rock. Gauges just dont seem to work. For me. IM lookiing at this slime thing as a backup remedy. Id rather make it toubeless, you know? Im still paranoid aboutgoing anywhere. I saw one guy who crammed a strofoam worm in his tire. But all that requires taking the doggone tire off.

I had a similar problem to you when inflating my fat bike tyre, even tyhough the bike was upside down. Tip - use soapy water and a paintbrush to coat the bead and rim, and keep checking the tyre is within the beads every few pumps. The soapy water helps the rubber bead settle into the rim as the pressure rises in the tyre.

I watched this video and I thank you for uploading. I still messed it up tho. Glad I did front tire first. After I added the slime I got the tire spinning and the valve stem got sucked inside the rim. Not a big deal but still had to pop the bead and partially remove tire to locate and reset the stem through the rim. Maybe this will help someone else. Put the air in first! 🙃

My issue is that no matter what I do once I connect the hose and try to start filling my bike tire it stops flowing as soon as it reaches the valve. After that it’s practically impossible to get the gel into the tire no matter how much I squeeze the bottle.

So your supposed to fill up less air than before the slime? Mine is 40psi should i only fill 35psi after slime?😊
@mariobrown1958
@mariobrown1958 3 года назад
Thanks for the vid, I put slime in my fat tires and then stupidly inflated to 40 psi like the tire said, forgetting about the additional mass of the slime. The bead popped off, even after reducing to 15 psi which is right about the least you’d want to ride it at (fat tire chopper bicycle). Might try one of those tools since it’s not wanting to set back by itself, thoughts?
