Jay - out of curiosity , what sealant do you use? I’ve had my tubeless tires for years now and I’ve never had the sound or feel of muck rolling around in them. Analog started me on tubeless and they said Orange Seal Endurance and nothing else will do. So far, they have been right. I even asked at t
Dan, this is so refreshing to read. You get it, you really do. You’re riding with roadies. I’m riding with roadies. We like our Rivendells, but wouldn’t it be nice to adapt them a little bit to make them more official road bikes? Maybe then the roadies might recognize them as road bikes? Pure Road
Well, we lived in Athens for 14 years before recently moving to NorCal.
A couple of years ago The Lonely Planet wrote a review of cycling
destinations around the world and chose Athens as best cycling in the USA
thanks to the endless matrix of quiet, well-paved backroads. Athens is also

Orange Seal Endurance dries into a skin, thick or thin, on the inside of
the casing, not the Stan’s rubber octopuses. If the OS Endurance skin is
thick and well distributed enough it will protect against thorn flats by
itself even though the sealant is entirely dried out.

Hi Leah - it's muc-off. Wouldn't have been my choice, but the guy who
built the wheels mounted the tires for me and used muc-off. It's been
fine, and this 'sand' effect isn't really bad. These weren't the goo-balls
I've heard happen with Stan's, looked more like someone sharpened about a

My bike life this morning involved cleaning out and remounting a tubeless
tire.
I had noticed that my front tire sounded like there was a bag of sand
tumbling around within it as the tire started to slow down, or just slowly
moving the bike around in my basement. I figured it was dry sealant.
Thank you,aeroperf

Hey Kim,
Atlanta is hillier than one might imagine, and there's lots of trails to
explore between here and Athens. The wide range gearing and big tires are
very useful! My Appa has RH 48mm tires and with how poorly some of the
roads are maintained here I'd not go much smaller than 40mm tires in
Hello Drew,
I have never been to Atlanta, Georgia. Therefore, I am all ears to listen
what the physical geography is all about. I never thought the terrain would
be so full of hills.
Where I live here outside of the state capital of Olympia in Washington

Hey Dan,
Thanks for the recommendation on the bag, it looks pretty nice. However,
what really caught by eye was the cable hanger on your friend's bike!
