Latex tubes weight around 70g, you can run inner tubes in a tubless tire no problem3Pio wrote:I did not know that there is Tubeless spare tire weighting 130gm.. Also did not know that there is Tubeless possible to ride without any sealant to save some rotational weight...Mcdeez wrote: ↑Thu Mar 23, 2023 2:12 pmTubless have the same amount of combination or even more.3Pio wrote:
More than obviosly that probably u did not used tubulars in everyday use... SO i'll try to clarify this...
In about 50000km of usin tubulars i had to use spare tires only twice.. One of that time i would probably reach home just putting some pressure on every 10km's.. But i prefer to bring spare tubular tires, as its weight just 130gm almost same as regular spare tube...
And few times bringing this spare tubular saved my non tubular friends when they had totaly destroyed tire (yes, i mount this spare tubular on my friend clincher wheel to be able to get home)
Also there is difference if this weight is packet in my saddle bag or rotatinal weight... But anyway i dont care about this added weight..
But at least u have options with tubulars:
1. U want lightest setup - Dont bring sealant, dont bring spare tire, use a phone
2. U want light rotational setup and some safety - Dont put sealant in tire, but have a small bottle with u (30ml is ok) and use the sealant only in the case of puncture (90% of time is working perfectly)
3. U want some safety, dont care about rotational weight - Put sealant in the tire as precausation and just ride...
To continue this, just use ur imagination and make combination u prerfer...
BTW, how many combination like this u can make using Tubeless?
I'm tempted to buy used tubular carbon wheels for my climbing bike, what should i inspect on a tubular wheel?
And another question, what do you use, glue or tape?
I find the tape idea is great but not sure if it holds the tire in place safely

But anyway seem that u have ur ideal choice of wheelset/tire combination.. Just go tubeless...
For ur last question, Im using Vittoria Mastik glue.. Dont see a single reason why should i use tape instead of glue (process of glueing is not time consumin as it maybe look like, and is not a problem when u get used of it...)
