Jeff, I’m a weekend rider and have been struggling to install my front 21” tire on my Tubliss wheel. Your simple comment of “you will need to take small bites with the tire spoons” made all the difference for me. I couldn’t get the tire on until I saw this video. Thanks!
Jeff, Thank you for going to the trouble to make these videos. I really appreciate the help.
never seen anyone else use that technique of just sliding the tire iron over just an inch and repeat, nice! ready to try that next time, and so true, if your struggling might be sloppy technique.
Ugh I am struggling with this exact step trying to install tubliss on my front wheel. Thanks for making this video.
About to do a sand tire, something that with normal tubes I totally dread. We'll see if this is any more or less of a nightmare.
I noticed that you insert the tire iron with the curve of the spoon up from the rim. I have been inserting the spoon with the curve down so that as I lever over the tire the curve wraps around the edge of the rim making it easier to keep the tire iron from slipping out of the rim. Is this wrong?
Small bites is the key especially on the gummy rear tires like the Shinko 505 or 525. Their beads are very easy to tear up, and when that happens, the TubLiss will never seal.
I use soapy water on the entire tire bead when I'm mounting the tire to the rim and it helps, as well as keeping the tire in a warm place before mounting it. The hardest part of the whole process is making sure you don't hook the liner with the spoon when removing an old tire.
I leave my tyres in the sun for a few hours before mounting, makes it sooooo much easier to spoon them on. Especially with stiff sidewall tyres that I use with tubliss
My dealer recommended Slime in side the wheel and on both inside and outside of the tire bead to help slide it on and add extra sealant value .So far so good ,your thoughts Jeff ?
Air it up and pop some wheelies!! Classic!!
Because the tubliss is in the drop centre there is zero room for the bead to drop in there,so it makes near impossible to fit the 21in tyre,bit by bit is key.
thanks for helpfull install tips big help. your the best. thanks again.
I had this working great then tore a high pressure tube for being lazy. Got a new tube but now I leak at valve stem on the high pressure bladder when I fill the low pressure side (tire).
Slime works well? I was told Stan’s sealant is a better product..? Opinion?
I don't have a tire balancer have suggestion on how many ounces that will to work opposite of the rim lock to get it mostly balanced out?
I'm surprised you didn't use any lubricant on the tire bead itself. I thought this was always a must...
Hello:
The bead only needs lubed on tires that have a tight fit and are difficult to seat. Most tires I use don't have that problem.
After installing 4 times i kept getting air leaks through the nipples and valve stems. Replaced rim tape, used plenty of soapy water and armor all. First time in five years using tubliss to have this problem. Any suggestions?
Hello: The tape only protects the bladder. It does NOT seal the air. When the red liner does not seal correctly against the tire bead, the air leaks where you have described. Possible issues: the red liner is damaged, the liner is not centered or the tire has ribs on the inside that create a poor seal. Try putting 150PSI in the bladder to make it seat correctly.
@@slaverace1 thank you, Jeff, i will.
How does tubliss work with studded tires for winter riding?
Haven't tried it but should work well.
What kind of tires you usually install? Thanks
I'm constantly testing tires but it's hard to beat the Bridgstone M59 slavensracing.com/shop/m59-front-tire-bridgestone/ and IRC VE33s gummy slavensracing.com/shop/volcanduro-ve-33s-rear-enduro-tire-by-irc/.
@@slaverace1 Thanks I'll try these
I put around 12 psi in the tyre but I keep getting leaks through the tyre bead/rim even though I put 110 psi in the tubliss?
Hello: Try the reset method listed on the back of the instructions.
Pull the valve cores from the high and low pressure valves, loosen the beadlock and instead of soapy water in the tire, Armor All both beads good, push the tire bead down to get it in there. Then air up the high pressure bladder to 110. The tire will seat and all kinds of Armor All comes out. More is better it seems, but don't get it on your brake disc. As Jeff said, use Armor All on the insert. I use Armor All on the insert when putting it in, makes it slip over the rim easier, then I juice it up some more. I just lube the crap out of everything with AA, never had a sealing issue, never used Slime or Stans' either.
I have a Rabaconda which is nice, the bead breaker tool and clip thingie to hold the tire iron while you work the other one are sweet. Neutron makes something similar that costs less than the Rabiconda and is very nice also, arguably better actually. Ya they are money, but a good tire changing situation is a lifetime tool, and your riding buddies will hang out and give you free beer to change their tires 😆
So, you don’t put extra soapy water in, like the Tubliss video shows?
Correct.
I don't use a sopy water I like using armor all is well I figure the soapy water would cause rusting and corrosion. I've done this on two different bikes and multiple tire changes
Amour all or tyre shine spray,zero corrosion and rust.
This seems unrealistic. In real life there is a lot more swearing involved.
And maybe bloody knuckles?
Hahaha no kidding!!!! I should have recorded my first time I installed this system... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
One thing to make sure of is that ring/nut on the high pressure tube inside of the rim is all the way down. I’ll thank Me later
I rode my tubliss with a flat rear tire and the tube wore through the red outer part and was down to the cords. It's destroyed.
TUbliss says to start at the rim lock not opposite it.
helpful step 1: coat the tire inside and out, and tubliss system ( liner and tube) with spray on tire shine (silicon based)
helpful step 2: switch to a super gummy tire (shinko/goldentire)..... ssssooooo easy to fit then..
add slime at the end
You need Baja no pinch tire tool
Rims getting chewed up 🙀
Get a bead buddy and use electric tape for first layer against spokes .
Fitting it dry......
Put the tyre out in the sun so ots super soft . Easy to work with then
