Anyway that's what I do and I have no problems with leaking air. Probably because I always pump my tires before every ride. Admitting that some air have escaped since my last ride, but I don't see that as a problem since it will not escape during the ride. On my wheels with tubes I always have to let out a tad of air before I pump so actually the UST tires are easier for me to handle. -- Perre You have to be smarter than a robot to reply. -- rec.bicycles.off-road is moderated by volunteers.

It's the tires not the wheels. Make sure tire beads remain clean, dirt
works into the seals, and you can use Stan's Notube sealant. Expect to pump at least weekly which is the same schedule for tubes. "W.S. O'Neal" wrote in message ...
