tiny victories


Spent almost all day trying to set up my front wheel as tubeless again. With very little success-the maxxis is a bit baggy and needs a compressor to get it started and seat the bead :( After trying in vain for hours I finally threw in the towel. Then I was struck with an idea, remembering how tight the dry-x was on the rear I experimented a bit and got that tubeless using only a minipump! Admittedly it offers as much grip as a gran wearing slippers on an icy morning but I felt a quiet satisfaction in getting something tubeless. (I'll probably take it off tomorrow)
