Serious question, are those rims tubeless ready? You might go through a gallon of sealant every few days but it would probably still be more cost effective than constantly popping tubes.

Seriously, you can just put the sealant in tubes and have the same effect, as I've been saying. He doesn't have access to an air compressor best I can tell, so tubeless isn't a great idea. Post some pictures of your current tire clearance and I can see if I think the Schwalbes will clear. They are effectively flat free, a tack won't cause a flat.

This is a much better idea and is infact what I have in my commuter, can't believe I didn't think of that.  Dave I know people up-thread have sent tubes with removable cores, I can probably try and order you some orange seal and a syringe to shoot it into the tubes if it well help? Pretty sure the 42mm Scwhalbes will fit based on me eyeballing my bf's Grater earlier in the thread.

I had to get my neighbour to drill out the old screw and re-tap the threads when it welded itself in there. That was after I wrecked the head trying to get it out with an impact driver. *E* This reminds me that I need to order a new tube of copaslip.

only problem with a space heater is will djdaddo be ok with his electrical bill for the property spiking because seriously those draw like 800w minimum, and typical ones can go all the way to like 2kw.

Plus, make sure the breaker panel, trailer wiring, and extension cord are good for 20A. An average space heater eats 15 amps on high. Some day I'll have to tell the story about how my dad almost burnt the house down after hurricane Sandy by trying to heat the house with space heaters and a generator while I was away at college.

Electricity is almost certainly cheaper per btu, and definitely easier than hauling propane on a bike. Plus Dave will be long gone before the electric bill arrives

So you got 2xschwalbe marathon plus tours and 2x tubes with removable valve cores due to valentine on tuesday. The tires have maybe 1000mi on th and have quite a bit of life on them. Put the more worn tire on the rear or in dirt you could have the front wheel washout.

It turns out that understeer sucks even more on a bike. Just causes you to eat pavement.
