tubeless woes.
went tubeless for this years CX calendar which so far has resulted in 3 DNF from 5 races with rear tyre flats. The tyre in question is a Maxxis Mud Wrestler which for 2 races was paired with a new cheap Chinese rim (prime from chainreaction) After the second failure i noticed the rim was damaged so bought a kinlin rim from cycleclinic and the sealant Malcolm recommends. Im 89kg and inflated the tyre to 25 psi, it went flat after 40 minutes of racing.
My first question is does sealant need time to cure, it was only mounted yesterday with no test ride and ad hoc spinning during the day
