You'll be fine with any tyre, make sure you get soapy water and dab it all round the tyre bead makes a huge difference when inflating. Also make sure the valve is at the top of the wheel when blowing up the tyres.

I wanna go tubeless the dream of no punctures haha how much has it set u back ?

Well i've been quite resourceful and have done it cheap as possible.

With gorilla tape as the rim strip (£3 for the roll), no flats joes sealant, and these valves, it'll come to about £25

bobj (Feb 10, 2013 at 11:09)
