• Yeah, you put the anchovy in when the tyre is on the bike and inflated. If the tyre is inflated then the stabber tool is not going to be long enough to reach to the rim tape. I trim off the excess with a little knife (that came with a Weldite tubeless repair kit) although you can of course just ride it off.

  • Thanks for the tip. I just get paranoid I'm going to ruin the rim tape by going too deep, but I was doing it wrong in having deflated the tyre first.
