NoTubes conversion kits - Do they work?

[CrazyCourier]

Hey All,

I do a heap of urban assault on my bike and tend to pinch flat my tyres alot, and im getting really tired of it.

So i wanna get tubeless tires. But i don't exactly have spare cash lying around (especially since i blew the seals on my forks, yestdy!) to by a UST wheel set and tyres. So i am thinking about getting a conversion kit eg: NoTubes.com .

Has anyone used this kit, or similar ones, do they really work???

Cheers,

Ken

I have installed Stan's kits on two of my bikes and they work great so far. One fo the major advantages over UST is that you cn run many plain (Non UST) Kevlar beaded tires that are much lighter. Also the sealant will keep your tires away from most small holes and leaks. If you ohave UST wheels in some cases their is an advantage to using the "NoTubes" rimstrips as it will allow you the same benefits with non UST tires.
