Has any body else had problems getting Cinders or other Panaracer tyres to seal on normal rims and using Stans.
Took bl**dy ages to get it to seal, ended up going to National Tyres. Then for no reason one side of the tyre popped clean of the rim. Can i get it to seal again ................ no i cant't and now I've used all my gas cartridges ................ and the LBS is closed ..........oh arse!
I found it difficult sealing cinders on 819 rims. A couple of layers of gorilla tape and got them inflated no problems with a track pump
dougieb can you please tell what you did with the tape as this thing is not going to seal without some help
Panaracers aren't recommended for converting to tubeless IIRC
As uplink says they aren't recommended. However, I had a pair and did get them mounted and rode them for a couple of months with no issues. Just needed to pad out the center of rim with a couple of layers of tape. It was needed to get a tighter fit with between the tyre bead and the rim lip.
Thanks chaps, am hugely disappointed that the Cinders are not recommended for tubeless as they are my favourite tyre, i might even have to go back to tubes !
