Put a ring of silicone sealant around the hole in the rim tape. It works magic to reduce tubeless leaks from the vavle

I ran sealant inside tubes for years and was happy doing it. Running tubeless now and it is fussy

I’ve been running tubeless for about 2 years on all three of my bikes, I’ve had some difficulty mounting tyres, had tyres leak air from the sidewalls (Michelin & Vitttoria) but have settled on Vittoria Corsa Next and finding it’s getting easier each time I replace tyres. I never unmount a tyre to check sealant, using Stans and it’s never dried out on me and always plenty left in the tyre when it’s worn out. I reckon all the issues with tubeless are worth it purely for the ride quality and ability to run lower pressures while still getting decent rolling resistance, I’m at 50psi on a 30mm tyre and the ride is sublime, if you have decent roads in your area then maybe tpu tubes but having used tpu and latex I can say that tubeless is much better in terms of ride quality.

Thanks for the video, I run tubeless on 4 of my bikes, I think you covered much of the teething issues, perhaps I missed it I don't think you mentioned to seat the tyre by over inflating to get the POP. I'm now using the Muc Off Road and Gravel sealant on the road and commute bike. I went tubeless after my road bike had a puncture and it was a nightmare to get the tyre off and on (17mm internal rim and 25c tyres) no way that was happening at the roadside. Thankfully TL works for me and I can continue to enjoy riding far and often.

Tubeless can be helpful in races (and fast group rides) with regard to avoiding flats assuming that sealant can plug the hole. For self supported gravel and XC races that are known to be have rocky sections, adding a tire insert can also help to avoid pinch flats that hole the sidewall. That said, the last resort of having to insert a tube into a tubeless tire with sealant during race can be very costly in terms of finishing position. and messy. WRT to efficiency, my take is that in lower categories (e.g. Cat 5, 4) there are other factors that have a greater impact on outcome than rolling resistance, e.g. drafting, optimized pack positioning, nutrition, hydration, etc. My $0.02.

I think it's a negative when you have to put in more sealant than a weight of a butyl or TPU inner tube. I too have experienced getting a cut in the tire that was too large for the sealant to seal (I did plug the hole but it blew out the worm!). I also had tyres that needed a lot of sealant to stop leaking. And how about a tyre that is so tightly seated on the rim that you can't take it off to put an inner tube in?

I was a skeptic too, but my butyl and TPU inter tubes kept leaving me stranded, so I switched to tubeless a year ago. I've only experienced a loss of sudden pressure loss once. It was a minor puncture, and the sealant did its job. I'm a tubeless convert now, but I'm still sticking with hooked wheels. I have a set of Campagnolo Bora Ultra WTO, and the wheel bed doesn't require tape for a tubeless setup. They're stupid fast too, just an FYI.

I was on TPU's until I punctured 4 times in a week. Moved onto tubeless with just as little as 40ml per tire (28mm on a 24mm internal rim width) and had no more flats since April

1:35 did you just open your quick link above a gutter? jesus man, you like to live dangerously

mine never completely seal. they lose air way faster than new tubes

this saddle is 150mm in width. what's your sit bone width?

Great content. I'm OK with tubeless for my mtb but road and cross/gravel, I'll stick to tubes.

There’s no reason to have tubeless on road. On dirt sure.

I agree that roadies dont need tubeless. I have never run tubeless on my gravel bike and rarely have a problem. But if youre doing some real mtb, steep rock gardens, and anything beyond a Colorado green, you absolutely need tubeless. I tear tubes every other ride when not running tubeless.

Does it (the Ryet) require padded biking shorts? Or is this comfortable without padded cycling shorts? Maybe you're going to say something like "that depends on how tough you are." Well, I have to wear well padded cycling shorts for the seat that came with my 2015 Masi Gran Corsa, so maybe that gives you an idea. I really dislike wearing padded cycling shorts as they are very uncomfortable for my naughty bits. They're way too stuffy and I can never get the bits adjusted into comfort 😪. I suffer 😔

Dude, do you feel comfortable sitting like that? It looks uncomfortable. Anyway, I ride tubes (on road). There might be some disadvantages but not significant for my rides.

I've been running tubeless on every bike for five years. I run 28mm GP5KSTRs on several road bikes, all on hooked rims with solid rim beds (no tape required). I run about 72psi on the road. I absolutely love the feel of this on the road, there's so much comfort and grip. I use hookless taped rims on my gravel bikes and MTBs. I've done probably thirty tubeless setups myself. I have an inexpensive compressor and inflator as I have so many bikes. I've never flatted a tubeless tire of any type in a way that required me to put in a tube. I just use regular Stan's and I have seen the sealant stop a leak several times as I kept riding. I have had to plug multiple tires, I use Dynaplugs which work very well. Just my experience.

Muc Off BLOWS

I was actually considering purchasing one of the Aliexpress 3D printed saddles, because of the price compared to an authentic Fizik 3D printed one. Viewing this video changed my mind. Thank you!

The juice isnot worth the squeeze. Stay tubed. Tpu are very light and the tubes are repairable.

Nice video! This shows how things are more simple than we think. At the end of the day, a lot of bicycle parts and components (materials) are similar as other stuff, so we can work with what we have in our home.

Like many people, I tried tubeless for a couple of years but now I'm using TPU tubes and it's all so much easier.

Destroys bib short

Nothing lighter than TPU and nothing more comfortable than latex innertube for road. If I were to ride my XC mountainbike more often I would switch to tubeless but not worth the hassle as I am not a pro mountainbiker.

Wow! That's very thorough review! Thank you sir! Ryet is certainly my choice.

I’ve ridden tubeless for five years on the road with 27 mm challenge Strada tires I’ve never had a flat that didn’t seal itself. I weigh 190 pounds I run them at 5.5 bar, I’ve ridden down the coast of Oregon…three times across Iowa during Ragbrai And the gravel trail from Pittsburgh to Washington DC. They were very fast and comfortable and I wouldn’t change that set up but I wouldn’t particularly encourage. Just anybody to try it. I almost think a prerequisite for using the system in a road setting properly would be to have spent time with tubulars. Similarly involving and rewarding. The only thing I would consider doing if I had any consistent headaches to deal with would be to add latex inner tubes and actually put maybe 100 ML of sealant inside the tube just out of curiosity in the end though there’s nothing realistic to compare to a 300 TPI tubeless tires.

Tubeless tires has it's own "uses" (specially in racing) but sometimes they're just more annoying for everyday cycling, based on my experience. Burps, sidewall punctures, huge nail punctures, etc...you know what I mean...it's a mess.

Bro u use an absolute shit of a sealant. You don't need more sealant but a better one. Get effetto Mariposa caffelatex - it only requires 30ml per tire

Yes. Tubeless is the biggest scam the bike industry has ever introduced. Tried it for a year, worst decision of my life. So much faffing around. Immediately went back to latex tubes. Knock on wood, 2 years streak without punctures with a Pirelli PZERO Race TLR & Vittoria Latex Tubes.

hell yea brother!!! this guy gets it..... tubeless for road bikes is a no go for me, tpu all the way

You should pull the rim tape super tight when applying to avoid air bubbles under the tape.

I’m on tubeless since 2018. So far not much of an issue. There are a few ride that it don’t seal. Which I notice new modern sealant don’t seal as good as old days latex sealant which I can’t find nowadays those latex sealant even seal on a side wall small cut. I’ve still had 1/2 bottle of mucoff sealant which don’t really works as advertised. I still prefer Stan’s no tube race sealant.

I run 30mm Conti GP5000 S TR tires on some Reserve 40/44 tubeless rims. I've had zero issues and no leaks. For reference, I weigh about 175 lbs and run my tires between 51-ish psi (when in wet conditions) and 56 psi (worn, cracked roads). I've had 2 punctures over 4000 miles, and both sealed pretty much immediately (no sealant sprayed onto my bike frame). I use Orange Sealant. From what I've read and heard from other cyclists, MucOff's sealant is not good at all. I use Fillmore valves, and they have never clogged. IMHO, there's not a lot of effort needed to maintain my tubeless setup. I set an alarm in my calendar to remind me to check or add sealant every 3 months, a bit sooner if it's been especially hot outside. I'll never go back to clinchers. With my setup, I get a more comfortable ride and no real worries about flats. FWIW, it's worth looking at Silca's tire pressure calculator. Josh Poertner and Tom Anhalt have done a lot of work and research into optimal tire pressures, and they've found that the tire pressures that yield faster rolling tires are typically lower than people think. silca.cc/blogs/silca/part-4b-rolling-resistance-and-impedance

There is absolutely no way I will ever go tubeless. I use anti- puncture protection tires, tire liners in each and I install 3 ounces of sealant in each inner tube for triple anti-puncture protection, but that is it. No problems.

Tubes are easier

70 psi maybe a touch high for a 30 mm tire , I;m at 65 f / 70 r and weigh in at 190 lbs running 28 vittoria's

Sorry you’re having so many issues. It’s crazy how different people have different experiences. Not just with cycling but everything else in life. I’ve been tubeless over 2 years now. I love it. For me it’s been everything I hoped for. No more flats, that’s the biggest thing for me. Other than a catastrophic sidewall tear from hitting a rock, I’ve had literally zero issues in over 10k miles. Not a single flat. Yes I have stopped several times to put a Dyna plug in but that took less than 2 or 3 minutes and I was on my way. I keep my bikes indoors and check and top off the sealant every month. Tubeless has been an absolute game changer for me.

What a load of faff tubeless is , I’ll stick to clinchers thank you very much.Don’t get me started on disc brakes for road bikes.

I tried tubeless for about a year, but it just isn't worth all the pfaff, especially the disgusting, sticky sealant. Clincher tires with TPU tubes perform about as well as tubeless, are easier to get on and off the wheels, are actually a bit lighter, and much less messy. And you can run higher pressures if you wish without worrying about the tire blowing off the rim at 75psi.

I am about to go back to tpu tubes, besides the sealant mess and faff of maintenance I live in a very hot area and have keep topping off my sealant because the heat in my garage dries out my sealant in 2 weeks (my wife doesn't want me bring my bike in our flat). Being an older cyclist, I grew up with tubes on the road, I could patch and change a tube quicker than trying to plug and rotate tubeless tires to get them to seal.

TPU for road, tubeless for the rest.

nothing wrong if you discipline clean and change your tubeless sealant, and you use only silca or muc off, or if you broke you can use goodyear sealant it very cheap and non ammonia it not make rust. and the most important is use tubeless ready wheelset.

Tubeless is expensive, saying this from a guy who spent $11K on his bike and wears only Assos and Rapha kit. Why spend all that time faffing around when I can be doing other things. Tubeless does not perform the job it's designed for even on small tiny tiny holes. The high pressure just keeps forcing the sealant out until the pressure gets so low you can even ride the bike. I've had tires that I could not get the bead to unseat when I had to install a tube and still had to call for a ride home. Only a Needlebrain is determined enough to stick with tubeless and keep giving the industry their money. Sorry but that's the truth of it. I'll never try it again.

Heard horror and success stories - some cyclists swear tubeless is the second greatest invention behind sliced bread while bike mechanics hate the setup. I ride everyday on both road and gravel and have never tried tubeless. At my rate, going tubeless is too much of a hassle unless I have 1 bike dedicated to gravel racing then I can see the benefits of going tubeless since it's more beneficial, otherwise, it's not worth the headache and costs. I get 1-2 flat a year (knock on wood) so switching out tube is a non-issue.

Tpu for the win, tubeless just not worth it

Tried tubeless with Orange Seal Endurance and it worked pretty well. Unfortunately having a newborn means most of my riding is on the trainer these days, and keeping my tubeless setup simply does not work in that kind of situation. I still recommend tubeless for long rides like audaxes, since the benefits all work there.

OMG it seems like you spend your life pumping up your tyres and messing around with sealant! I mich prefer riding my bike and my inner tubes

I run tubeless on both my road and mountain bikes and I've had issues with each. I encountered dry sealant which left me stranded on my mountain bike and damaged rim tape prevented my road bike tire from seating initially. While both have been addressed, it was still a frustrating learning curve. Thanks for the video.

Been running tubeless with orange seal for almost two years.

Tubeless has always worked for me. It's probably your no name wheels and muc off sealant. Dynaplugs are the best and a must have for all tubeless riders. I also pump up my wheels before each ride.
