Inner tubes and the right PSI.. If it aint broke dont try to fix it! TRy pumping a tubeless without a compressor in the street or on a trail. especially if you already have an innertube in the tyre already.
You take the tube out first. That's why it's "tubeless". Typically you mount tubeless tires at home. Though I can seat mine with just a little hand pump.
When I “went tubeless” I was sweating and cursing for 3 hours cos the f*cking tube wouldn’t seat with my asthmatic pump. I ended up getting a small compressor!
@@crespohome1344Buy a tire booster, you can pump it up with your normal pump to like 11 bar and fill all the air instantly to your tire. I was able to put on a tire with doubledown carcass, which was insanely hard to assemble. If you're not using downhill tires with like an insert you should be fine.
Yep seriously. I just pay the bike shop. Try doing the job on road tyres and expensive wheels, not a chance I’m taking plus needing a compressor and all
I use Shimano XTR wheels, which are intended for tubeless use, with a flat rim with no spokes inside, but the very first I did, was changing/removing the valve to be able to use ordinary tubes inside!

It's to sell expensive new wheels, slime and tape. Whenever we go riding it's always the ones tubeless moaning about liquid leaking. While I just carry on riding no problems.
@@Shawn-dg8ow exactly weekend warriors wanting to feel they have the cool trick stuff.. what i love about cycling now is the choice and i think that's where everyone misses the point, use what you love, what you feel works right? if you like tubes crack on if you like tubeless same.. We are so lucky to have so many choices!
I use a weed sprayer to do mine - just replace the wand with the rubber tube that normally goes inside the weed sprayer bottle and put that over the valve. Pump and pump to a decent compression then release!
agreed!! tubes are for enthusiasts and people who are technical. casual users and people who cannot fix a puncture need to avoid. or get an uber to a cycle mechanic.
I would go airless if I didn't wear my tires out so quick (i have an extremely aggressive riding style so don't rip my shit lol) I've tried every tire and only softer tread tires work for my style because I need the traction for my aggressive style.
I haven't tried it yet, but read you need to add more sealant every 6 months and completely replace it periodically. The tires also tend to slow leak, so you need to check the pressure before every ride. Tubeless doesn't seem worth it unless you're regularly riding on rough enough trails with low enough pressure that pinch flats are likely or you're riding frequently enough that your tires will actually wear out and need replacing often enough so you don't really need to worry about changing out the old sealant...
When I did my first refresh of sealant with the valve at 6 like shown and indicated in the directions a bunch of it came back out like a geyser. No idea why. Almost every video I've seen no one has that issue 🤷
Fitted tubeless tyres to my road bike, did everything correctly BUT have to pump the tyres up everytime I took the bike out! When I did get a puncture ALL the sealant spayed out! Replaced it with innertubes.
If your air escaped everytime that means you did a poor job taping the rim and the puncture might have been too big for the sealant or the consistency was bad

Club ride today. We all had to wait for 40 minutes for about 5 people to try and fix a puncture, problematic inner tube. Punctured again immediately. I also had a puncture but I'm on tubeless. Plug in and reinflate in about 3 minutes. My club mates were grateful. I was warmer.
@@jhvorlicky the tube was like welded into the tyre. Actually all very experienced guys. It took a lot of effort to get it out. There were 2 spares used for this, so spares were carried. Also add in the 4c temps cold hands etc etc. I know what was easier, me reinflating my tubeless in seconds.
@@jhvorlicky you need a definition of the word? I'll try a simpler one for you. It was stuck. Like shit to a blanket. It's very easy from the comments section to act the big I am, but anyone with any experience and has been riding a while knows tube swaps go wrong. Just like tubeless punctures can. All I'll say is, I've always got home with tubeless, and we've all seen someone have to get picked up who was on tubes.
Even easier, let the tube in. Tubeless was developed for very low pressure MTB to avoid ripping the valve from the tube when braking. TPU tubes for the road. No sealant hassle or mess.
A CO2 cartrige makes seating the tires without a compressor a breeze. I've never flatted in 30K miles on road and gravel on tubeless. Had some slow leaks but always made it home.
She didn't show the regular maintenance required for tubeless. Its fine if you only have one bike, but if you have multiple bikes, the maintenance is required by a time interval, not distance ridden.
Some tyre/rim combinations may be this simple, some are an utter nightmare. I've setup some in 5 minutes and I've had other combinations still give me issues after 5 weeks!
Its not always that easy, my front tyre was a b*tch to get seated. I ended up pouring sealant on the outside of the tyre so i get it to inflate. A portable compressor helps too.
Why would you want to go tubeless? With a tube you can swap that out and use your tire again when you get a flat. What happanes when this tire gets a flat?
Tubeless ready doesn’t mean that it has rim tape already installed… tubeless rims have shallow valleys so the airtight interface is easily achieved. Rim design certainly matters, in addition to being taped. Come on now there’s already a million videos on this that do a better job of explaining
@@alimantado373 oh ok, but if I buy tubless tape, can I convert my rim to tubeless? Or are there any things that I need to check, I don't really see any difference between tubless ready rim and regular rims other than the tape. BTW I have a 40mm road bike rims. Thank you!
@@quinnrodney896 You have to have Tubeless ready rims, Th edge of the rim has a shoulder on it so it can be air proof with tape. I ride Halos which are tubeless ready and 2.4 width tires. but prefer inner tubes , much quicker to change wherever you are. I ride street trials so I have a higher chance of getting pinch flats on edges of stairs and ledges.
This is why I always carry a spare pair of rigid forks when going to the trail incase you need to whip your foxs off in a jiffy just like as easy it is in this video to change setups
"You wanna pump until you hear the bead pop". I can promise that with these instruction you would still be there pumping if you didn't happen to have air compressor... there is a way you can do it with floor pump but it requires a little more preparation than instructed here...
I’m like. Tubes are fine!? But people won’t stop talking about tubeless so I’m really tempted to try it just to know what I’m missing… I don’t see myself ever really saying goodbye to tubes 😢
i wanted it. But then i realised i can not even use tubeless… i have split rims. Now, after just 2 flat tubes within over 6000km and a SUPER EASY FIX/REPAIR due to the split rim… never i would go tubeless, at least on this vehicle
And then when its time to replace the tire because of a big puncture or use, you need to do all of it again. Much easier and cheaper to get a tube and replace it
These commenters have no practical experience, all you need it tubeless rim tape and a good valve and you can convert about 95% of normal rims to tubeless.
Do not fucking pour sealant through the valve, just pour it before you finish setting the tire on the rim. There will be n mess of sealant if you don't fuck up and the valve stays clean.
After seeing the horrible cases and hearing the stories about tubeless? I grab my new Token wheels, took the tires out, removed that plastic rim tape and put regular cloth tape and a new set of Pirelli Race tires..........no! I cleaning up a mess just to fix a tire.
I just use slime inertubes I don't see the difference mind I only commute but you don't need to change anything as its just a puncher resistant inertube
This is simplified massively, here is the real method Check if tire and rim are tubeless compatible If not then replace whichever is not Get a tubeless valve Get sealant Take tire off bead and tape the rim tight if not already done Put tire back on and make sure there are no holes in the tire that it cannot fill Put 150ml of sealant in(27.5/2.6) tires Get a punp with an air chamber, co2 canister or compressor and fill it until it seats onto the bead with a popping sound, Spin tire so sealant fills all gaps If this goes wrong youll find yourself in my position currently, it did not fill the holes as expected and is leaking slowly😂

And then it’s still the question if the tire is sealing of properly, otherwise you’ll need an air compressor to get the sidewalls in place.
