My understanding is this will not work because the sealant will not adhere to holes in non tubeless-ready tires; therefore, there will be no self sealing.
I was doing that on my CX bike. I have since become a lot more comfortable with tubeless setups and have dropped the tube. However, my relative just wouldn't want to deal with a tubeless setup... while it's not complicated, he gets frustrated very easily with things that most consider simple.
The
Vittoria Air Liner looks like a simple solution for him, but dang... what an over-priced piece of foam! Makes me wonder if I can just buy one of those foam pool toys from WalMart and stuff it in a tire for way less money!
