Күн бұрынTubeless conversion for Veteran Sherman-S and Lynx
I install a tubeless valve in conjonction with the Michelin Pilot Street 2, 80-90/14 tire, seems to be holding air so far

IMO the front arrow on the tire is wrong direction, as when tire rotates, water should go to outside of tire, thats what treads on it is for - so first youre hit the ground with threads arrows center, then rolling tire should to oposite direction.. physics.. PS. Ok, after some research on internet i have found, that front tire have reverse thread to reduce vibrations, but as we have ONE wheel, i would chosse rear tire direction, as its the one who accelerate and should have most grip with the surface.

UPDATE: After 4 days the tire is at 29.5psi, yes it lost 0.5 taking the pressure lol Good morning, i'm happy to report that the tire is still at 30psi after 16h, seems very well sealed, of course i will update after a week and first ride !

Try just dropping the wheel from tailgate/trunk-height. If it slips on the rim it will burp and you'll know the rim isn't right for it (as it wasn't on my BG Master).

Thanks, it's been a month and i add about 2-3psi per week to stay at 30psi, not bad I also had the occasion to ride in pothholes, jumps, etc and no problems at all, the Sherman-S rim has a thick bead to keep the tire in place but i wouldn't do it on olders Shermans as they have very thin rim beads

I know this video is about a year old but I wanted to ask weather or not you used any sealant. Typically when setting up my MTB's tubeless we use Muc Off tire sealant when setting them up. The idea here is that if you do get a puncture you might not even know it because the sealant should rush to the hole and clog it up providing that it's not a big gaping hole that would require a plug, in which case you'd cram a plug in there from your plug kit. So far on my MTB after over 1000 miles I either haven't had any punctures or the sealant sealed them up and I didn't even realize it. Great video and thank you for sharing!
@MathieuTechMoto 3 ай бұрын
Tire sealant would be a good idea but didn't used any, big knobby offroad are much less prone to poncture, with street tire i would use sealant but for now i carry plugs and small bicycle pump The last time i did a tire change with sealant it was a big mess to clean
@reitze01 9 ай бұрын
I tried going tubless on a BG Master with a Michelin Pilot Street 2. The rim didn't have the shelf-aspect needed for the bead to seal properly. The result was any impact as big as a curb-drop would burp the air out of it. I ended up putting a tube in it.

Yes, your wheel must absolutely have a thick bead to retain the tire

This is amazing. Every EUC should be tubeless, especially V12HT has so many problems with the tubes. I wonder if it also could be modified like this :). And what about some tubeless sealant, why not put some in? :)

I didn't have sealant went i installed this tire, but i guess it could also help keeping the pressure longer , i may try the Shinko 244 tire eventually Your rim needs to have a thick enough bead to hold the tire properly

Haven't got a single flat while in tubeless, often you will get flat if you do jumps or hit pothhole due to tube pinch

What's the importance of going tubeless over having an innertube?

Better handling, less heat, less rotationnal mass, if you have a poncture you can simply put a plug on the side of the road then go, easier to change the tire, etc

Tubes leak slowly over time directly through the tube's rubber and have to be topped off once every two-weeks or so. Tubeless will hold without pressure loss for many months or even a year or more.

Does it not lose air if you hit a pothole or speed bump forcing the tire to flatten out a bit. I just don't understand why it's not losing air.
