Next step, route the hose into the hub axle, another hose down a spoke int the tyre and you can adjust pressure on the fly

150 bar in the frame? You wouldn’t want to get a puncture in your frame...

So much more practical and simple than carrying a pump.  🙂

Anyway, I thought all you aspirational tubeless types don't suffer from punctures anymore?

I suppose it  could be adapted into a simple bong. Now that's progress.

Very rarely, when I was riding. I used to carry a Panaracer tubeless puncture kit for the (very, very) occasional puncture that the fluid wouldn’t seal, which was once, IIRC.

I worked in a bakery once,was told off for not pumping enough jam in the doughnuts

After that, I'd see how much jam I could pump into them

So I wondered what this thread was about

Needs to have a rear nozzle to use that pressure to spray something fun at wheelhuggers and tailgating cars.
