Yes if the tire is not damaged. Why exactly are you worried of having damaged it? Make sure the inside of the tire and the inside of the rim are clean and 100% free of previous sealant.
2) can both tyres have taken damage from resting on the wheels for a year with no air in the tyres?
No.
3) does anyone have expereince with tannus road tyres? (the ones I tried to order are the 25C)
N/A
My tires tend to lose 5-10PSI per ride and it's within the reasonable range. I do use Muc-Off sealant (thicker than the average stuff) which helps.
Note that you may have lost air with your original setup due to insufficient sealant quantity or simply dried up sealant. 6 months seems to be the average sealant lifespan.
So does the sealant also help keep the air in the tyre? When emptying old sealant out of the old tyre I presume that you take your tyres off or is there another smart way og doing this?
Also cleaning it, IT normal washing up liquid sufficient or do i need to use bike cleaning products?
