Thruxton Tiresome Thruxton Wheels

I've got a set of Kineos on order for my T120, others have used tape and sealant to make their rims tubeless, not sure I would have trusted that myself, especially touring, hence the Kineos, expensive and not to everyone's taste but one of the few ways of going properly tubeless.

 

Not considered swapping my Thruxton wheels, but understand the rationale for wanting the additional confidence boost of tubeless tyres

 

Looks like a really good system and a competitive price as well

You have had a bit of bad luck there. Touch wood i have been a lot luckier with my bikes. But my only thought is even tubeless tyres get punctures.

I always carry a small repair kit for tubeless tyres just to get me home in an emergency.

Yep so do I when I’m on the tiger. No point when on the Thruxton though.

 

Have you considered a Speed twin?

Happened to me on the test ride. Sent my wheels to Doug Richardson in Devon , he replaced the rim, spokes and nipples with stainless steel and converted them to run tubeless. no worries about tube failure or corrosion.
