The first air blast is crucial for the mounting (a). The tyre must inflate and be
in contact with the rim immediately to make sure no air escapes. It is therefore
recommended that you use a compressor or a powerful track pump. Inflate the
tyre with quick blasts.
Once there is contact and the tyre is seated tightly continue inflating until you
hear two pops. This noise indicates that the tyre is correctly seated. If there had
been no popping noise when you have reached the maximum tyre pressure
deflate the tyre and carefully apply mounting liquid once again.
Once the tyre is seated check along the witness line (b) whether the tyre is
seated equally around the entire circumference on both sides of the rim. Spin
the wheel slowly and observe the course of the witness line along the top edge
of the rim. If necessary, deflate the tyre a little and align it.
When everything fits deflate the tyre and unscrew the valve from the valve stem.
Shake the latex milk bottle strongly so that the ingredients mix up evenly. Fill
about 30 ml of the sealant approved by the tyre manufacturer into the tyre (c).
Clean the area inside and outside the valve by using an absorbent cloth. Screw
in the valve again. Inflate the tyre as described above. Spin the wheel slowly for
a few rotations to make sure the liquid spreads inside the tyre.
Grasp the wheel with both hands, continue turning it gradually and shake or tilt
it in both directions. This will spread the sealant inside reliably in all areas.
Finish by adjusting the air pressure to your needs or weight and the tyre width.
Do not exceed the permissible maximum pressure. Tubeless tyres can be used
with about half a bar to one bar less than clincher or folding tyres.
WARNING
Tubeless tyres have to be mounted together with a UST rim/UST wheel or a
tubeless ready rim.
CAUTION
Tubeless tyres are often also tight without latex milk, but the latex milk
significantly increases the puncture protection and should therefore be ap-
plied.
