I have 4years and thousands of offroad miles on the tubliss setup. Many of them with a completely flat rear s12. The traction is unreal, with the completely flat tire you will eventually wear the red outer casing out and twice I have had the inner high pressure tube develop a leak where it goes around the rim lock. Both times the high pressure tube was more than a year old.

All my mates run tublis and not one of us has had a puncture in the last 2 years since we became disciples to the original adoptor.

Of course now I've just jinxed it all by saying that but maybe our terrain has less snakes:rolleyes:

You’re screwed now! Better brush off your plug kit.

It all depends on where I ride. I can run all year on my local stuff we hit PA for a group ride with some good friends and 4 of 12 will have a flat.

Well we'll find out tomorrow. Keep the plug kit in the van so in between laps I might be doing my thang.

Did you get to use your plug kit yesterday!!!

I believe Brent did.

We're on gen2.

Man it was a hot day.

Went for TUBliss, main reason is they have longer life span. Won't be pushing for podium places so pulling over for 5mins won't be much of an inconvenience. Also got a good deal on them!! Any recommendations for a SMALL plug kit that will not be too heavy and fit in a back pack. TIA

I'm running Gen2 with an IBEX at about 7 psi and freaking love that setup for NW slimy woods riding. Have had zero issues so far. Mounting the front one up tonight (was waiting for my GT216 fatty to wear out).

I got a Kenda Washougal (non sticky) for the front as I was not sure my favorite GT216 fatty would be good with tubliss (heard it is not).

Any recommendations for fronts with tubliss for slick gnar?

I have 14 months on the gt216 fatty on front of my bike all with tubliss. I normally run 6-8 in front and 2-4 in 505 cheater rear. I finally just ordered another front as it has shed about 1/4 of the side knobs. I got over 200 hrs out of this last fatty front. What's the supposed problem with the fatty and tubliss?

I was told the carcass was too thin and needed the support of the tube to work well. Crap, wish I'd bought the fatty now.
