UrbanLegend Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Bit of file and dremel action sorted that out. Hassle, but worth it seeing as Tensile UCI bashes are hard to get hold of at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVE-0 Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Perfect....what i would do for that bike, bet it rides like pamela anderson Steve x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 how do you pinch a front wheel? do elaborate...Generally landing on it with enough force behind it to compress the tyre enough to let the sidewalls of the rim trap the innertube and pierce it. Much in the same way you pinch the rear Looks well nice. Proper smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 I love it - its cheating, but i love it....oh and incidentally - the latex matches the colour of his frame on every gap - superb finishing detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrbanLegend Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Tubeless is so bloody funny, I had literally 8 "punctures" in a row on a silly gap to sharpish concrete, was actually putting small holes in the sidewall of my tyre... Latex pissed everywhere then sealed. Reckon I would have punctured a standard tube a few times (running silly low pressure), but it's so great not having to faff around fixing punctures! Only had issues on lairy gaps, been mint for sidehops and ups etc.I love it - its cheating, but i love it....oh and incidentally - the latex matches the colour of his frame on every gap - superb finishing detail.OH YOU ABSOLUTE BUM!! I thought I would get in before you slammed down your tubeless bashing!! Damn you! At least I can gap forwards Captain Sideways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
