@LetsDiscoverMauritius2 жыл бұрын
3 years old video but I will comment. When you remove the rim tape, it is important to clean the rim with alcohol. Let it dry, clean with a cloth then convert it with tubeless tape. Also, do not pierce the valve hole through the tape with the valve as this can damage the top tip. You have a nice bike repair cabinet but you do things like an amateur.

@spencergiles723 жыл бұрын
This is good but I think a huge tip that is missed is to tape it in the other direction so that the rotation of the wheel doesnt force sealant at the edge of the tape. If it is the other way, the sealant is pushed over the edge vs. against it as the wheel turns.

Hey, tanks for the video. One question, what it’s the size did you use un a Gorrila Tape? What characteristics should it have? a lap on the wheel whit the tape is enough? And the last, can I do the tubeless if I don’t have a compressor?
@rmg7973 жыл бұрын
1. Dont use gorilla tape. It works initially but the sealant breaks it down and you will have a flat sooner than later. Its also a pain to clean off the rim bed when its time to retape (sooner than later with gorilla). 2. Dont start taping on the valve hole side. Start on the opposite side of the valve hole.

@DannysCycles3 жыл бұрын
Some tire beads are certainly tighter than others, but years of practice really. You can try with some tire levers to leverage it on. As you work your way around the tire, and you get to a point where it's taut, you can start from the end that you have already seated and try to wriggle out a little more slack.

Gorilla Tape is 3x thicker than NoTubes tape. Ever wonder why the tire is difficult to seat? Gorilla Tape has only about 25% the tensile strength as NoTubes tape. Clean-up? About an hour to clean and re-tape. We've seen a lot of Gorilla Tape failures. Cheap? Sure. Does it work? Not. Sorry...

Lets say that this is a great guide, there is two things i'd pick up on. Start at the vavle hole and go round and finish overlapping at the valve hole. As you tension the tape it will always want to spring back into place and the valve stops it doing that. It also has the side effect of cushing the valve and giving it a better seal. I've seen gorilla tape setups where the sealant has got under the tape and the tape starts to lift and the tension you put at the start aids it as the sealant starts to lift the tape. locking it down with the valve means it can't not be under tension. And Gorilla tape does get effected by sealant. Just make sure it's tightly pressed down with no air bubbles and it will sit there for a long time but any lips for the sealant get under and it will loose stickyness and just like that one day it will siudenly spring off the rim.

So gorilla tape looks like the best option. What about if I use a stan tubeless and slime combination? Will the gorilla tape be fine with that as well? Thanks
@DannysCycles4 жыл бұрын
We don't recommend slime at all ever, the sealant liquid is doing what you want to achieve with slime except it's doing it better. It will "self-heal" small punctures, won't change how the tire rolls and won't be a pain to clean.

Can i use presta valve with rim designed for schrader valve?
@DannysCycles4 жыл бұрын
For a tubeless setup, probably not, I've also not seen any tubeless ready rims that work with a schrader valve. You can't convert just any wheel to tubeless, you need a tubeless compatible rim (which would only accommodate a presta valve, a tubeless ready tire, some sort of tape (in this case we used gorilla tape), and a tubeless sealant.

Gorilla makes a mess to remove later. Took me an hour+ to cleanup - much longer than it takes to setup tubeless on clean rims. Never again! Go with Stans style tape. Trust me!
@DannysCycles4 жыл бұрын
We've been using gorilla tape for years, the trick to removing it, is doing it slowly and the adhesive comes off with the tape. A little adhesive left behind also shouldn't make a difference in the performance or ability to be able to re-apply more tape or a different style of the tape. Stans is good, but we like this because when we're out on the road or at races, it's more likely you can find a place with gorilla tape than with Stan's. But to each their own.
