Welsh Two Day

Or tubliss.... what you recon elvis

I'm no welsh 2 dayer , but the mousses i fitted have been ace . no trouble at all . bit bouncy maybe but then i ran my tyres quite low , hence maybe why lots of punctures . Lee had a puncture on his tubliss the other weekend, and he did fix it once he found the hole ( more of a split on sidewall ) , but he had to pump it up and search for where the hole was  . Probably could have changed a tube in that time . and no more worrying , should i pump it up a bit , let it down a bit , just ride the bastard

As this might be the last enduro I do, wouldn't get much future value out of 'em either

But you've got me wondering all over again now.........?

1st welsh i done, had a 3" split in rear tyre 1st day. still finished the 2days coz i had mousse in . crickett was checking tyre for me to make sure it wasnt getting worse at fuel stops.  would not have finished if i had tubes in shocker.

Looks like better try to find and fit some this weekend!

you can still ride the tubliss WITH a flat tho, have you seen the videos on the ktm forum?

I am just posh

Think about how much its already cost you to entre and your grumbling about the cost of moose's
Now think how pissed of your going to be after spending all that money and fail to finish it due to puncture's.
Bit of a no brainer really.

I don't like mousse's well front anyway! for trail riding, but will be fitting both my mousse's for the welsh for sure tho!

OK, OK i give in and will get some fitted if i can, as going to look a bit of a twat now if get my annual punture next week
But not buying a machine for whacking myself in the face with a tyre lever Mufy stylee

might as well splash out then gary ! you can always sell them after to recoup your dosh !

Apparently they get soft with age , a bit like you :16:
