    My LBS recommended heating the rim tape with a hair dryer while using a plastic tire lever to bed down the tape. It works for me.

    So glad your cohort is partnering with BQ for testing different losses throughout the system, Dr. Really looking forward to seeing some non-market-driven engineering at work in the industry. Also, I always look forward to your videos every Sunday

    Great video !
    If i can add something, when applying the tape, you can wiggle it from left to right when you are stretching it into the rim inner channel. It will help stick the tape all the way down into it, and have a way more sturdier bond between the tape and the rim :)

    Minor point - you can still pinch flat a tubeless tire… the sidewall just above the bead can get cut if running very low pressures and striking a rock hard. I know, because i did it… it won’t seal!

      Haha bummer. I guess pinch flats are ‘virtually’ eliminated
