The saga of my tubeless tyre woes has evolved. Took it to Stayer cycles in leytonstone (great bunch of guys/girls btw) and they couldn't do it themselves either. 2 new layers of rim tape and a valve later and it's working.
EXCEPT. This morning I started my commute over East London's glass paved roads and got a small 4mm nick which wouldn't seal. A limp home and a swap of bikes saw me get into work. I really don't want to have to unseat it to patch the tyre again...I bought the weldtite anchovies but they are huge and seem more suited to MTB tyres where the lump you get from the anchovy is offset by the tread. Not really suited to a road tyre. Do people rate the genuine innovations ones? They seem a bit more slimline.
