The stupid questions thread.

After a few months they become porous, I've got a minion ss that's weeping on the side walls. It seems to happen with maxxis more often after the second top up with tyre sealant.

Yeah. I've seen my DHF's do that, but I never seem to lose pressure from it, just get muddy looking sidewalls.
Bummer! Dat rolling resistance tho!

I've just bought an Onza canis and Victtoria Goma for the xc bike, interesting to see how they'll go with sealant leaks. I had the same thing with schwalbe sweating from the side walls as well. Funny thing is I have an x-king 2.4 on the front that came with the bike that hasn't sweated yet and tread seems to be lasting on it.

That’s exactly my scenario!!!

I've tried different sealants as well, maybe as the tyres get old they stretch and develop leaks or the casings get damaged from bottoming out on the rims..

Keen to know too, looking at a Mezcal/Peyote combo

I'll report back after a few months of riding them.

I dont have any punctures, and the sidewalls are ok. Must be the bloody valve stem.

My Minion SS bleeds Stans like it's got ebola. Fcuked if I know why.

But it stays up long enough for me to ride it so I CBFd.

I found the orange sealant leaks out of maxxis alot less than stans.

You're talking about tyres aren't you? Asking for a friend...

Sorry @Tubeless cobber. I have Poodle on ignore, so I didn’t see his reply, and it didn’t show up in your quote either.

That's what I'm using ATM, the enduro stuff.

Don't worry, it goes with the rest of the patina of mountain biking, that it sucks all your spare cash out of your pockets.

It's still better than needing to stop and change tubes from pinch flats.

Watch out, you will be smashed and trippin at the same time
That peyote can have different effects on different people.
Try a.mushroom tyre instead

Watch out for those 'shrooms though!

Taking mushrooms too often that mario. Probably will never come out of it properly

He is a loose unit. I can't believe they let him race on the kart circuit still!

Not really a stupid question but, any one had doggy dentistry done ?
My little pound puppy needs a couple fangs pulled and would like to know what others may have payed before hunting quotes. Cheers
