I must have jumped on the tubeless train at the right point.
I have some mavics which I can almost fit the tyre on by hand. I can inflate with a track pump and easily top up with a hand pump. I don’t need special glue or tape for the side rim.
I have bought a dynaplug micro pro which is a thing of beauty (which I have used once).
I’m quite happy.

In Essex, you only have 48 hours, so you have to make a quick decision over what you will do.

You mean in the instant that the instructor was observed and 100m, 1000m further on?but ultimately, no harm was done.Sorry, but judging by the outcome is irrelevant to negligent/reckless actions.

Are you doing that thing
Are you doing that thing where you push the tyre with your hands from either side of a spot around the bit which is on the rim, along the circumference.? This should slowly push more of the tyre on the rim as you repeat this. Might take a few repeats.September 5, 2019 at 11:34 am in reply to: When a 100mph motor rally will see these Gloucestershire roads closed for 48-mile race #949445Hirsute

I’ve had various 50_ errors recently.
We have a super fast connection at work and it is still slow even with various script s blocked.
I assume the site is “daisy chained” in some fashion and the sites/servers it relies on have a very slow link somewhere.
It was also down completely a week or 2 ago.Hirsute

Tubeless can be run at lower pressures and the link claims it is very hard to come off.
I’d be interested to find the total weight the wheels are designed for.

Really enjoying Money Heist (sub titled) where a Spanish gang rob the Mint. Now that really keeps you guessing.

My LBS, the mechanic wanted to fit parts bought elsewhere as he knew they couldn’t compete on parts, only the manger didn’t agree.
Mechanic set up his own repair shop.
Seems a sensible way to work in this online age.Many restaurants will allow you to bring a birthday cake for the end of your meal.
