Hey Folks,
So I just converted to a tubeless setup on my mountain bike and I'm curious if anyone carries extra sealant with them when they ride? I was reluctant to go the tubeless route because of the amount of sharp rocks and such where I ride, so I was thinking through scenarios and "burping" the tire came to mind. If I get a side-wall slash I'm out no matter what. In the past I actually ran downhill tubes for peace of mind (sure they weigh more but in 3 years of riding and hundreds of miles, I never once had a pinch flat or puncture.)
Am I crazy for thinking carrying extra sealant (2oz +/-)?
