Question about the "tubliss" tire system

Have you contacted Jeff Douglas at Tubliss about this? I haven't had any problems but I have asked him about tires that he recommended that work well with Tubliss. He sent me some thicker high pressure tubes for free when he found out that I was using the older design thinner tube. I was having zero issues but it came up in conversation.

Jeff is a great guy and goes out of his way to help. I would call or email him if I were you.

any buddy no when Jeff will have his tire out last i talked 2em he said august .. said his testers n Colo had fronts and were n love with them crazy grip on everything

Yeah Jeff is a good guy.

I simply think I have to run a min of 10# in a front tire unless it is a desert tire.

Oh, OK, I think I see what was happening. I run 10 psi in the front with a soft motocross tire but 7 1/2 with an AT81 Dunlop desert tire. Never had any problem of any kind.

Well, try 7.5psi in a moto tire and let me know what happens!

I think I'm just going too low.

Hey, I just ordered up my first Tubliss systewm for the rear tire of my scoot. Reading thru the instructions it says I shouldn't put this in a "used" tire. The tire I have now only has about 150 miles (albeit tough single-track) and the tread looks pretty nice so I hate to waste it. Anybody with experience on thise, or should I just man-up and buy a new tire?

The conventional rim locks tend to make it so the tire doesn't seal well with the tubliss. They deform the bead. Also many times when you take it off and on a couple of times it won't want to seal.

Have you researched the www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTjn4uUeg4M

So to air up or air down you need to carry a syringe and glue around with you? No rim locks? Interesting concept though.

Only the needle that's in the kit, the sealer is already inside the tyre
I've ordered a set, to trial
Will post the results in the future

I'll carry a tubeless tyre repair kit, seems a more efficient way rather than removing the wheel, replacing the tube etc
Removes the likely-hood of pinch punctures, which destroy the tube
If they can be run on the road, at highway speeds 110-120 kph (which Tubliss can't) & still perform adequately in dirt, that would be awesome
There's always the old trick of short self-tapping screws thru' the rim into the tyre bead as second line of safety
