What is the benefit of tubeless vs tube ?

I commute on a 32 inch unicycle and I can ride on the snow but the ice is scary and I've fallen hard enough to be done with that. However I'd like to fit one of my smaller unicycles with some of the best most metal spikes price doesn't even matter tires what would you recommend? I want to have good faith in the tires and that's worth any cost. I'd definitely only need them a few months of the year

I've had a Lezyne pump unscrew cores. And it's a problem others have reported.

BUG!

Rather looks like a flea market than a proper bicycle fair.

Such a beautiful trail Paul!

Really enjoy the downhill footage, btw!

Ground: Yo, Head! Ready for something fun? I got something great this time... Head: Not sure, man. Remember how it went that one time...? Ground: Nah, that was some other ground, it played you. Helmet: What happened? I wasn't there. Elbows: Yeah, I wonder why. Dude, we got wrecked. Ground: Just bad luck! The trail’s epic! Head: Miss that rush... Legs: We’re tougher now. Yesterday was leg day. Let’s gooooo Head: Alright, let’s do it. Bike: F.

Thanks for the excellent review. As a road rider I think this will suit me perfectly. I just want pockets that keep items separate and this looks like it will do the job. Cheers from Australia.

Wow the bike shows changed so much since the first time I went in 95. Back then there was all kinds of shops manufacturers it's a shame.

It's not big, it's heavy but I love it. The best! 👍

1:03 that's exactly what I was thinking. I paid over $100 for ONE 96North studded tire, ONE damn tire for over $100 and I used it for about a week and took it off because as you said the roads got salted and the studs weren't needed. I used that studded tire on my front and that Continental Contact Plus tire on my rear but found it provided almost no traction in deep snow. I know it's summer now but I'm thinking ahead to next winter and two winters ago when we actually got snow it sucked, no snow last winter because of stupid El Nino. I was running 2.35 inch Schwalbe Smart Sam's and they just weren't very good in snow, especially on those days where I walked out of work and there was 6 inches of unplowed and unshoveled snow on the ground. This coming winter I'm just going with the gnarliest tread I can get and the widest tires I can fit on my bike. For the front wheel I already have a tire, it's a 27.5 x 2.8 inch Michelin WildAM tire made for soft/muddy terrain. Unfortunately, I can't go as wide on my rear so I'm probably going to go with the same Michelin tire but in 2.40 inches. And I'm running tubes, so I'll probably air those down to about 20psi.

Overall quite a disappointment for all of those involved.

I love tools,quality tools,buy cheap,buy twice,i think im addicted to tools!

For the 1sr time I bought a cheap pump from harbor freight the presta adapter unthereded the valve. When I screwed it on it was really tight I think that the oring in the adapter was of the wrong size it sealed well but was very tight going on and off. SO poor equipment design o manufacture can be too blame especially on cheap pumps

Thanks for the review; not being able to pack my full face pretty much makes it useless for me, shame they didn't account for that

lol You're a sad little man.

How about mounting it to a fence in the park?

You showed the perfect example why this "stand" is not not worth it

I've been using the Topeak Morph mini pumps for... 25 years? Been working great all that time. Basic difference would be they don't have the CO2 part added in. But yeah, having the hose for inflation on the trail makes things so much easier.

🤘🤘We're glad you're happy! Lezyne rhymes with design!

What bike is your son riding here?

Funny how things is different to different people...to me the Lezeyne is the worst pump ever...it takes out the inner valve again and again, when using tubeless valves....

Ahhh, memories of getting flats in front of work and getting Top Gear ruled out of the ride home. To toss my 2 cents in on what you've covered: - Portable electric pumps are heavy (or have the tiniest battery), very noisy, and struggle with >60psi. I tried a Xioami, it works but I used it maybe 3 or 4 times only, I don't recommend these at all. - I use a Lezyne Gauge Drive HP, since I need 60psi / 4bar for my road bike. Not quite high pressure but not high volume either. I love the gauge on the hose cause I have no feel for pressure, and I like the portability with the hose that fits inside the drive. The hose doubles as CO2 inflator. I use it mainly for top-ups when I'm out on my epics, not for inflating from zero. - The other issue people report with at least the portable Lezyne drive threaded chucks is sometimes the chuck is made with plastic, and can deform if you unthread it after inflation when its temperature is high. Easy solution: wait a few minutes for it to cool.

God, that looks depressing. I used to live going to that show. I even bought a bike there in 2012. There seemed to be a lot of empty soece there. I'm glad I stayed home.

Never skip core day! (Says the guy who always skips core day)

Question: Looking to buy a Mokwheel Basalt ST fat tire ebike, but want to get rid of the 26 x 4 OEM wide spaced knobby off road tires, as I will be mostly street, groomed trials, or dirt roads riding. Found some 26 x 3 beach bike tires with more street treads that should perform better. Can any/all 26 x 4 wheels accept tubeless tires as it seems from you great video?

It such a disappointment compared to other yrs, wasn't worth the $20 to get in.. Other yrs you could spend the day this was like you said an hour if that..

Were the rim and tire tubeless ready?

Why did they even bother having the show. Sad

They shouldn't be at the International Centre. They used to be on the Exhibition Grounds where the downtown cyclist crowd can get there ON THEIR BIKES - what a thought! Looked smaller and sparsely populated too. Some of those e-bikes looked more like motorcycles - you think if Harley-Davidson slapped a couple of pedals on their motorcycles that they could get in there?

I can't believe there aren't better bike exhibits in Toronto, thanks for posting this, very disappointing. I'd rather goto an event where people just bring and show off their bikes to strangers in a parkinglot than something like this....

Wow what a lame bike show , where are all the big bike brands???

the solution is to ride E MTBs . if you have enough power you can carry a ton of tools . my rear rack pack has about 15 lbs of tools spare tubes clothing , locks etc . i could break down entirely and rebuild my bike if need be . well not quite 😂

Thanks for sharing...

A great selection of tools.

So sad :(

Same here in Vancouver, BC. Very disappointed. Not much bike manufacturers or brands. Only few locals. Mostly chinese brand even not major brand showed up except Trek.

Waste of time

Ya I was seeing bike shops saying on Facebook don’t go to the bike show come see us lol

I appreciate this video, but did you interact with any of the manufacturers or displays? There could have been some interesting info from the unknown brands, or even some insight as to why some people are not there anymore. You paid to go (or got tix somehow), and went all the way out and only stayed an hour. I probably would have done the same, but I wasn't aiming to make a video about it! Anyway, I agree it looks bad, though I was never that keen on the shows even in their heyday. It's also worth mentioning if you didn't that the Spring show is still at Exhibition, and is generally bigger and better attended.

We took in the show the the Friday. There was a good crowd. It was smaller but this is the first show since the Pandemic. It should be back to normal size next year (I hope). Free parking is nice too.

Your so right I was very disappointed even discussed what a joke 😢😢

thanks Paul!! did visitors have to pay for admission?,,,

Boy, that really was disappointing and there was so much unused space there, indicating a significant lack of vendors. I might've asked for my money back if you paid. 😞

We used to set up there. But it’s not worth it anymore.

e-bikes e-bikes e-bikes...... tisk.

It is unfortunate that you dismiss E-bike. The largest growing demographic in the biking industry are older than 55. That is because of E-bikes. More older people are out biking that ever, it's a fact.

Sad carbon ruined it cost to much shop ebay for used old steel used wheels build vintage
