I haven't ridden these yet but I did set them up over the weekend.
Deflated the inner tubes and removed the tyre from the rim on one side, then took out the tubes. Wet the rim with a bit of water with washing up liquid, got them up to 80psi no problem with a normal track pump - very easy. Used the injector to inject 30ml of Orange Seal once they'd gone down again, swished it around then pumped them back up to 100psi.
Rear tyre stayed up first time no problems, but the front went flat. So I put another 10ml of sealant in and pumped it up again.
Checked this morning and it has gone flat again :/
What should I do next? I've never had a problem getting tubeless tyres to hold air once I've first got them going before. At no point have these leaked any sealant or anything like that, so I don't really get where the air is going, or why the rear is fine but the front not...
