• Very slight seeping of sealant through the sidewall. Doesn't appear to be cut though. Could it just be a really fine slice or is my tyre experiencing stigmata having been ridden around by a cheap Jesus impersonator...

  • Tyre cancer

    New bike time

  • Wait and pray.. I patched a sidewall last weekend. Spent some time swearing to remount the tyre unsuccessfully. Tomorrow belongs to me (Alex Harvey version obviously).

  • Are these Maxxis tyres?
    The Maxxis tyres that came stock on one of my bikes were apparently tubeless ready but they wept little tears of sealant in lots of places on the sidewalls. Google showed that this was a common theme with Maxxis. They stopped weeping as much, the sealant does eventually block the pores but it was never 100% resolved.
    I fixed it by never using Maxxis tyres again.

  • I thought this was normal haha. My tyres also do this in many spots
