In my personal history of wearing through a variety of Compass/Herse tires over the years, I don't set them up tubeless for the extralight or standard casing. Only Endurance/Endurance plus provide a fuss-free experience. On Wednesday, October 9, 2024 at 4:01:32 PM UTC-7 dros...@gmail.com wrote:

I live up in the northeast and don’t ride skin walls. My sealant lasts forever. Sven in the summer, I have plenty left after six months. The downside is that worse riding up here isn’t ideal. -- Sent from Canary (https://canarymail.io) > On Wednesday, Oct 09, 2024 at 6:58 PM, Ryan Frahm (mailt

Patrick, I have to say that I’ve never actually added any glitter! I’m sure a craft store would have it though. I was told just a pinch per tire would be enough. The standard OS has quite a bit of it floating around in it and the endurance does not. I’ve been happy with the mix for summer and us

Thanks, all. Christian: I'm already having to add sealant every 3 weeks or so; far more often than the every ~3 months with the Schwalbes and Somas. I'm looking for a sealant or a technique that can extend the intervals between replenishment. My brother bought an industrial-sized can of carpet glu

My daughter is rushing me but I meant to add that yes, at least every 3 months when I was down south. PNW weather, maybe a couple times a year. On Tuesday, October 8, 2024 at 1:00:30 PM UTC-7 Ryan Frahm wrote: > I can only comment on the endurance casing RH tires but OS regular and > enduranc

I can only comment on the endurance casing RH tires but OS regular and endurance worked fine for me. I did notice the endurance definitely doesn’t seal as well so I ended up mixing the two and it has been great! But I’ve heard adding a pinch of glitter to the endurance helps quite a bit as well.

One more question: Has anyone found another lightweight, supple, knobby 622X50 mm tire that rolls and corners as well as the Oracle Ridge? Does Schwalbe make anything similar? (I so hate Schwalbe’s website that I resist looking it up.) I have a couple of pairs of 50 mm Soma Supple Vitesse SLs that
