I’ve been running a homemade tubeless sealant in mountain bikes and dirt bikes for years - 1 part mold builder liquid latex, 1 part ATV Slime with the rubber chucks to stop up holes, 1 part pink anti freeze to keep from evaporating in the tire, 2 parts distilled water. I remove the valve core and squirt it into an installed tire with Stans injector tool - works great, a little thicker than Stans but holds up better in my experience to punctures.

I know I'm not the first...but THANK YOU for the slow detailed instructions / video! Just installed my first tubliss rear...AT81EX used Stans...had to finaggle one spot where the bead didn't fully seat...but after inflating both air chambers it seated! Only drew blood once on a knuckle! And no cursing!

ADVsquared They are supposed to do that, right?

I’ve used Stan’s and Trucker cream sealants for years on MTB, road bikes and motorcycle tubes and tubliss. Suggest to avoid the sticky mess, and mention the cost of the expensive cream lost, to use a syringe to pump the cream in the low pressure valve stem AFTER the tire is installed. Also, you need to add more cream around every few months to avoid latex holes from dried up sealant.

Exactly... no need to do it like this. Will really make the tire install super difficult if the Stans starts to set up.

The propylene glycol in the Stans helps lube the rim/tire. I just changed tires using this method and it was fairly easy and seals so much better than the Armor-All and/or soapy water or Slime method. Slime doesn't seal punctures and leaks nearly as well as Stans...it just leaves a green puddle on the garage floor.

I'd suggest airing up your high pressure tube after installing it to the wheel to ensure it is holding air and not damaged from mounting, before you art mounting the tire

nice..... good tutorial

@@DirtBikingwithDonnie you know it bud.

I did it EXACTLY like you did, using the same sealant. It’s leaking on the low pressure side really bad. 😞 It was my first tire ever.

I gave up on tubliss because of the slow leaks on the low pressure side and getting a nail through the high pressure tube once. This stans sealant may be the solution. I have been running the mousse’s and really like the peace of mind of never getting a flat no matter what and never having to check the air pressure.

Great video thank you. I'd make similar videos of me fitting tyres but there'd be so much swearing it'd be R rated!

You need to ride at highland park in cedar town Georgia it’s on the boarder of Alabama and Georgia they could good trails and lots of single track and some good Mx tracks lots of clay tho gets slick when wet,they also have some really nasty hard trails great atmosphere tho nice people they do get angry if you speed threw the main gravel road tho.

We've been there a few times, but not recently. We need to go back soon.

how does Stans compare to Slime? I've used slime before with Tubliss but it tends to be really thick.

Great stuff as usual! My question is why not just pour the stans through the valve stem with the core removed? I think id have most of the sealant on the floor before the tire was seated haha

@DirtBikingwithDonnie

You could do it that way. I think it helps the red liner seal the inside tire bead. Not sure if any sealant would get in there after you’ve added pressure to the bladder.

Solid video...thank you for making it...I've been running Nitro Mousse for a year now...before that I ran Tubliss...wanted to see what all the hype was about...obviously Mousse has piece of mind with zero flats, however, I have found that the Mousses really hurt suspension performance, are much heavier and make the bike sluggish, and you just don't get any feel from them...so I'm going back to Tubliss. I used soapy water before and did have some leak issues so definitely trying the tire sealant trick this time around. Any reason why you used Stan's VS Slime?

I’ve used slime before and it works fine but seems like I have to use a lot more of it. Stans is thinner and seems to distribute better. But either will work and prevent those low side leaks. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I wonder if a new pull off tire would seal using this method. I have a new bike and want to install tubliss. I would like to pull off the new tire install tubliss then re-install the new tire. Any experience or success doing this?

I haven't really noticed it being any different from when I used to use the soapy water method. With both the red liner will stick to the inside of the tire bead so you have to be careful not to grab both the liner and the tire with the spoon. I will try to make a video about that the next time I change one. Thanks for watching.
