I always had slow leaks on UHD tubes and was always topping up tire pressures. I thought I would give the Tubliss a go as Torpedo7 had them on special for $100 each.

Since going to Tubliss;
I have dropped 1kg of rotating mass per wheel which has made the steering more responsive
My tyres don't slowly lose pressure anymore
I get heaps more traction as I can run lower tyre pressures
No more tyres delaminating on the inside
No more heavy tubes making the wheel unbalanced with rubber balls rolling around inside
and, so far, no punctures.

I fitted a new MX52F on the front and new MX51 on the rear when I fitted the Tubliss and have been very happy with both the grip and minimal wear.

Current rides:
Husky/Berg 2014 TE300
Italian Husky 2011 TE449 (couple of them)
Royal Enfield Continental GT650

At the same time, I would like better puncture resistance than what the standard tubes can offer. Now, if I can just somehow convince the wife that I really do need to spend some more of her hard earned money....

	Don't mess with old bikers, they don't just look crazy. My first motor bike ride at the age 13, 58 years later I'm still riding. The administrator has disabled public write access.
