A tube you can change. I had not realized you cant even stick a tube in there on tubeless unless you pull out the valve stem. That is sucky wucky.<BR/><BR/>Flat a tube, you put in higher pressure on the spare and finish.<BR/><BR/>All that said, I dont even ride.<BR/><BR/>G-ridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15706450850903468425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765491466852689692.post-576866965003699552008-05-19T11:06:00.000-04:002008-05-19T11:06:00.000-04:00What's wrong with a tube is pinch flats if you pus...What's wrong with a tube is pinch flats if you push the psi envelope. Stans won't seal in the double-cut puncture a pinch flat makes.<BR/><BR/>You can obviously flat a tubeless tire if you run it too low (which is what I did) but you *can* go lower without tire failure. Basically, I hit the rim on that tire probably 30 times before flatting. If I'd be running a tube, I would have flatted on Colin Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289923497258059725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765491466852689692.post-34342002168585983012008-05-19T10:58:00.000-04:002008-05-19T10:58:00.000-04:00just one more story of tubeless nightmares costing...just one more story of tubeless nightmares costing some skinny white dude a podium in an expert MTB race...<BR/><BR/>i still dont see what is wrong with a tube, even a latex tube, or even a tube with stans in it running at low psi if that floats your boat.<BR/><BR/>at least you got out there and raced, new fangled gear or not.G-ridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15706450850903468425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765491466852689692.post-74044836492940587482008-05-13T10:42:00.000-04:002008-05-13T10:42:00.000-04:00maybe this will teach you NOT to make fun of the p...maybe this will teach you NOT to make fun of the people who get off and run in MTB races...<BR/><BR/>or maybe it will get you jumpstarted at running for Cross season...<BR/><BR/>:D<BR/><BR/>Now, just think...
