Hold on a minute. I have used Armour All on every tube I have installed for about 7 or 8 years now. I coat the entire tube and the inside of the tire carcuss. My tubes last longer and they are near impossible to pinch. I have had one pinch since then and it was a doozy that I was lucky to walk away from. The talc people use is for lubrication. I run Dunlop 756's, as the trials tire and I don't get along so well on the 300s.

My valve stems are sitting at about 80 - 85 degrees after riding.

FYI, I am still using the stock tubes and rim locks on my '05 EC300.
