STAN'S NO TUBES TUBES/GLUE


2012 Stan's No Tubes Standard Tubeless System

Going tubeless doesn’t have to entail buying special wheels, and in most cases doesn’t have to entail tubeless tires. This is the quick 'n easy way to convert standard rims to tubeless. The Stan's No tubes Standard Tubeless Kit looks like one of those things invented in the garage by a guy with too much time on his hands. So what? Tinkerers have made the bike world so darn interesting, and there is a beauty associated with any garage solution -- so utilitarian, so deceptively simple, so appropriately MTB.

This Standard Kit has everything needed to convert one cross-country wheelset to tubeless. It includes two molded rim strips with Presta valve cores, one pint of Stan’s tire sealant with 60g scoop and a spout, and one 10-yard roll of rim tape. Detailed instructions are also included; we recommend following them to the letter. If there’s a concern about sealant, buy an extra quart now to recover from those initial screwups without sidelining the wheels and your hard work. The Stan's No Tubes Standard Tubeless Kit should work with most cross-country style 26" MTB rims.
