First go at the tubeless thing, everything worked perfectly! I mean how/why!? WTB cross boss, Stan's grail, stans tape and valves and efetto mariposa sealant. Tyre went on without issue (used tyre levers) then the beads locked on in first go with a shitty floor pump. It is going to explode on 1st ride isn't it?
Made me rethink my position on road wheels which need new tyres and have tubeless rims ..
One question, should I have to over inflate the tyre first time round to hear the beads locking in? If so by how much? Is 35/40ml sealant fine in these?
