I've cheerfully avoided any sort of puncture for years by cheerfully just not really riding a bike - but I assume tubeless has had some influence on the matter.
tiny little knick that resealed while out the other day, seemed fine, re-inflated, was a flat jizz puddle the next day, so crammed in an anchovy and headed out...
I am now a strong convert to amateur shaved legs: the Stans Sealant Wax Job is not the look I wanted as we head into short season. And my word was it an explosive jizz fest when the anchovy decided freedom had a nice ring to it...
It resealed fine after about 3km of projectile goo, and required almost zero break in my ride aside from an industrial hose down so in terms of pfaff it probably worked out slightly in favour of tubuless over inners. Will watch some anchovy videos though. And test some different goos.
