I understand the nature of the term "field-expedient", but in this case, the field-expedient approach would be to use a tube!
I had Stan's sealant in the split-tube tubeless tires of my Moonlander for over a year, including the past winter when our count of below-zero (F) days numbered at least 50. I never had a sealant loss, and I never observed that I was losing air. I also experimented with adapting skinnier tires not rated for tubeless use. In this case I tried some economical Conti Speed Ride 700x42 on Stan's rims with Stan's valves and tape. The tires were porous and sealant squirted through the sidewalls like so many pinholes. Once they finally sealed, I had disastrous/explosive results when I attempted to ride them at more than 40psi. I switched to tubeless-compatible Racing Ralph's, and have been VERY happy with the ride quality. I've got a couple hundred commuting and adventure miles on that set-up with no problems. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
