Give me a quick run-down on the process of mounting/sealing your tubeless system. I'm thinking about taking the plunge.
Tips, tricks?
Quick rundown with Stan's rims.
1) install yellow tape (only on the stan's rims)
2) insert valve stem
3) mount tire
4) insert fluid
5) air up
The first one mounted right up, second one wouldn't seat for me. I have installed a tube in it and I am going to let it set for a day then try again. If that doesn't work I will be adding a Stan's rim strip.
Quick rundown with standard rims.
1) install rim strip
2) mount tire
3) insert fluid
4) air up
It's really pretty easy to do. I mounted the Schwalbe Nobby Nics on my american classic wheels. They are the easiest tires I have ever converted using Stan's. They aired right up.
