If your speaking of the Stans tubeless conversion the kits are expensive at almost $70 but it does around 16 tires so I guess that's not too bad. But there's been pros and cons in the reviews on this stuff.
You can inject Stan's sealant into an inner tube and get pretty good results, as already noted. I'm not convinced it works quite as well as as it does in a tubeless tire, but it does.work. See my earlier post in the thread where I describe a little test I recently did.

Side note: first time in 6100 posts I've used a smart phone to post.
