Use of sealant with tubeless
« on: May 10, 2012, 08:28:11 am »



Liam, Bushwacka:


So now I have tubeless rims and have 560 gram Conti X-Kings that are "tubeless ready" but not truly UST.  This means that they have a tubeless bead and seal against the wheel (with noticeable pings as the tires seats on the rim) but will probably leak air through the sidewall -- the true UST version is 200 grams heavier and I wasn't willing to do that.  But I am considering giving tubeless a trial run by using Stan's or slime with the current tire.


My question. When you add tire sealant, is it a one time deal or does it evaporate and require that you periodically add more?
