Huzzah it works! Will be posting my tubeless set up in due course.
How not to do it!
Do I have to spell it out, perhaps silence speaks volumes dear fellow!

Might want to be very careful with fumes from burning carb / brake cleaner.......

Bravo 😀
Mick - used carb cleaner, and as you just posted that thought id check it, no mention of such gasses on here (thankfully!), only harmful to breath in vapours and get in touch with skin, thankfully.
That link above is scary! 😯
It is impressively undramatic when it works, and (as long as your kit survived) most amusing when it doesn't 🙂
Thanks!
:lol:- worth the wait - thanks
Hilarious!
Excellent !
Vaguely relevant video...
Haha love it, so if it doesn't work you have a burnt buckled wheel.
I presume you're mostly igniting the butane propellant from the carb cleaner? Why not cut out the middle man and go for camping gas / gas lighter refill?
Can we have a video when you try this 🙂
I have just bought some 24" inner tubes to redo the rear, its a right PITA re-inflate with this method (as my tye decided to unseat both sides during the night). Also built the centre up with foam so with the new split tube method hopefully it will be easier!
I couldn't find a butane/propane refill at the time!
It also appears that I uploaded the incorrect "working" version as that one didnt work! Heres the correct working version.
