I've had good success with tubeless setups in the past, but this one in particular is being a pain.
So here's what im working with:
-Stans Crest 29, yellow rim tape, stans valve stems (I've had these rims seal up perfectly before)
-Maxxis Ikon tyres. Haven't used them before, but got them to snap onto the rim without too much work with a track pump.
Anyway, bead snapped on, tyre deflated without touching the bead, valve core out, sealant in, air in, shakey shakey. Left them laying down over night, both still inflated, but when i shake the rear with the valve at the bottom sealant is visibly leaking out from the base of the valve.
I've tightened the valve nut, but its made no difference. I've read that taking the valve out and cleaning all around the the the black rubber part can help. To be fair this valve has been used before and i honestly didnt make sure it was perfectly clean, though im sure if it was covered in dirt i would have noticed.
Any ideas?
