Tubeless Tyres -"saying the same things about tubeless tyres over and over again" Hippy read the first f**king post

I'd love to give them a glowing review but I'm in no position to do so as I've not really ridden them, life and a long holiday kinda got in the way.

As per my post up-thread I found them quite hard to get on, but could totally be me being an absolute weakling with shit technique.

Will opine once I've had a chance to put some kms in them.

If you haven't already ordered them then they're nice and cheap here

Edit - seems like i severely depleted stock by ordering 4, looks like theres only 1 left now.

Blimey, that is cheap! As you say, only 1 left!

I ordered some from PBK with a discount code for £45.75 each.

I seem to be getting squirming on my schwalbe g one speed 30mm tyres set up tubeless and pumped up to 60psi. This is on Hunt carbon 35 wheels. I'm about 70kg. Hunt's max recommended pressure for 30mm is 70 psi.

Notice it when climbing out of the saddle and in the front especially. Checked the pressure when I got home and there hadn't been any reduction.

Could go a bit higher but I would have thought 60 is plenty. Any one else had similar experience? Considering changing to a slightly narrower tyre which should allow for higher pressure as maybe that's just what you have accept with running wider tyres on the road.

That's the way it's gonna be for everybody, hookless rims now getting 70psi limit.

Second pair of P-Zero Race TLR (not SL) gone after the 2000km mark. Two plugs in the back (which is already squarish) so far, even the front had some leakage after yesterdays ride. Swapped to GP5000 S TR's, we'll see how they are.

Not great to hear. Just put a pair of these on after numerous complaints about getting sprayed with sealant from friends (3 plugs and a later plug failure) on Schwalbe Pro One 30c’s at sub 2000km

Veloflex Corsa Evo TLR went up on Lightbicycle rims with a track pump and no tyre levers. Stans sealant and they have still feel solid after 36hrs. I'll update on ride and durability but they are a cotton race tyee so should feel amazing.

(That's plaster marking on the wall, not a jizzsplosion)

perfect audax tyre

Perfect 65mm rim too

How many punctures plugged on a tubeless tyre before you replace it? Got a pair that's been plugged three times on front with lots or smaller punctures that sealed up but wonder if it times to replace

Keep it going or consider moving to a less fragile tyre

I never replaced a tire because of that. Keep plugging until it's too worn or start leaking everywhere

What's the benefit over tubs here? Easier to swap tyres?
(-not a hardened racer so genuine question.-)

In theory lower rolling resistance than the equivalent tubs, a bit easier to swap about, more resistant to punctures (or at least small ones seal) and there is the possibility of chucking in a tube if it all goes wrong. Cheaper too.

Tubs are lighter, more secure if they do puncture and the rims are much stronger.

They felt good on my commute yesterday and hillz after work. Proper race test next week.

Looks good anyway. Is that where you lock it up??!

Box fresh.

yeah, out the back of my office in a walled off and locked and gated car park. Wouldn't leave it there overnight but fine during the day.

Oh, I was joking

At least you didn't include location data in the EXIF. Did you?
