tubeless?

[snuffiluffigus]

Tubeless tires are realy popular on the Mtb racing circuit, using both
manufacturers systems as well as aftermarket systems like Stans Notubes
<notubes.com>, which benefit the rider by reducing flats and allowing
lower tire pressure to be viable. On a unicycle, however pinch flats
don't occur very often, and I have only experienced one single puncture
in my year and a half of riding. Has anyone tried using this system? Is
it worth it? (it is pretty expensive, but split between two riders,
it's not bad...)

It's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.

I have tried it on my Coker and was not worth it.
But on smaller wheels it may be fine.

i think that anything where you sidehopped would be a bad choice. that
would likely cause lots of "burping" and that's not a good thing.

It's been discussed pretty thoroughly- check the threads at the bottom
of this page.

After using a tubeless Coker, I wouldn't go back to a tubed system-
it's lighter, more puncture resistant and gives you a much smoother
ride.
