  • It happens bro. I’ve had it happen with expensive speciality bike store tubes. Hell I had it happen on a carbon wheel, at 2am in my basement. I thought the Russians were invading, holy hell. I would have shit my pants, if I wasn’t too busy having a heart attack. Sounded like a bomb went off lol.

    Most of my bicycle wheels are tubeless now. My dirtbike is still tubed, and will be until I get off my ass and convert it too.



  • Ahh I see. This is just an unsubstantiated opinion, but I’d bet this would still happen with those clik cores. Sealant has an unfortunate habit of gunking up whatever is in its path, and I bet that little valve at the bottom could still get pretty crapped up. It’s a piss off when this happens with a $3 core, now imagine a $15-20 core, right?
