    Hi all,

    Great forum and thanks for joining.

    I’ve a 2016 R and after too many hours faffing with leaky tubes and cheap pressure monitors have decided to go tubeless using professionally installed Outex tape.

    Question is - would OE pressure sensors fit? And what aftermarket device could then read the signal?

    Ok, so far so good. Been a week and hasn’t dropped any bar despite some spirited cornering and plenty of heat. (Have kept the pressure monitor caps rather than the internal sensors). Fitting time by a professional mechanic was 2 hours.
