WB Deapee now get that bike dirty and bleed a bit~

I went tubeless,,
Pulled a big thorn out two weeks ago five miles from the trail head,,It oozed sealant for about a minute then stopped, didn't even loose 1 psi..

I leaned the bike way over and spun the wheel a bit to re coat the thorn hole between the tread blocks on the tire edge,,prolly didn't need to...

And the handling benefit,,WoW,, no more tube fighting the tire inside for position,,no more heavy tubes,, as for the sealant weight hahaha really ?
The bottle for each tire was just a few oz's.
Have not refreshed the sealant yet,,five months now. I loose 3 psi a week, with the tubes I lost 2 per week LoL

Ok I'm done..



Of course I carry a spare tube and pump,,,
