• DT Swiss R24 Spline DB x IRC Formula Pro.

    Tyre mounted easily and held air for a week or something. Sealant added and it continued to hold air.

    Been given the front wheel back (unridden) and one side has come unseated, whereas the other is still secure. Back wheel is fine.

    Remove tyre and risk stretching the bead, to remove factory tape/add tape on top?

    TIA!

  • If the tyre is unseating then it unseats. Adding more tape may help but it may not. It maybe a case of living with it.

    There is something not right about DT Swiss rims. I don't have a cross section to compare to a kinlin for example.

    The R24 has a pin jointed rim. It would be even heavier if they had also given it a proper tubeless shape. Sleeve jointed or welded are a different kettle of fish.

    If it was for me I would, but I can do without the hassle: fixing punctured tubes is their limit.
