amazing how as an adult i get to learn from a kid 😂, been looking at tubeless videos for a bike that doesn't have tubeless rim and tires. never seen it done this way and seems like this would be the best way for me to do my setup. thank you for the great video.
@@RidesWithJake thanks but my dad gave up. He’s thinks it’s the rim and the tire not playing nicely. He tried that, and split tube too. Looks like it’ll be tubes with slime for now.
Understandably so, tubeless especially on non-tubeless ready wheels are high maintenance. I have to pump up the tires atleast once a week, but I think it's a good habit to check tire pressures regularly. The big advantage for me was being able to use tire inserts which I'll be posting a how-to soon, it improve the ride and grip massively but being able to run lower pressures.
@James Caleb Nice James! Mine is still holding up, but I have to top up air almost weekly. I do ride almost every week, it's a bit of a hassle, but I think its a good habit to always check your air pressure.
I just wrapped my rims in two layers of Gorilla tape, installed valves and even cheap wire bead tires popped / sealed up for 15 minutes or so ..... after adding Stans I have been good to go.
I was doubtful at first, but highly appreciative for this video.
Glad I could help!
Finally one kid teaching a proper techniques that i was looking for
👍
honestly i wished i had this kind of exposure as a kid. kudos to Jake and the Parents!
Thanks for the kind words Jason, appreciate it!

You’re welcome, hope it helps!
Nice! Trying to get my 20” trek roscoe tubeless but I think my problem is it’s a single wall rim.
@James Caleb yeah it can be tricky, try gorilla tape and 16” inner tube, it should seal the rim quite nicely. 👌

@@RidesWithJake well we finally got tubeless. Three layers of tape and the inner tube on the outside to hold it. And we’re good!

Super tips! Thx!
this is genius! I salute you
Thanks John, appreciate it, we’ve now used this on 3 bikes
i love this keep it up
Feels like you skipped a step, what is the blue lining that was suddenly put in the tire?
That was a DIY insert that I ended up not using, I have another video for DIY Insert :)
Great video Jake!
Thanks Laura, glad you liked it 👍
Very interesting trick.
thanks it really works
Awesome 🙌
@@RidesWithJake its been 2 week and its perfectly working without and air leak or liquid leak
Wow kids nice
Thanks for dropping by!
nice man!
Thank you :)
Try using motorcycle sealant next time
👍
Whats the tube for? This isn't really a hack, it's a pain in the ass.
Yeah tubeless is a PITA a lot more for non tubeless ready tires and rims
Does it work better if you put tubeless ready tires on the hacked rim?

@@MrRay645 it's really situational depending on your wheel/tire combo. but yes, that would be ideal
