How To Repair A Tubeless Mtb Tyre. Add a bit of plumbersPTFE tape to seal things if the gasket is particularly troublesome. Depending on the size of the hole and the plugs there are two techniques to plug the tire.
How to fix a hole in a tubeless tyre using a tubeless plug Carefully twist the tubeless plug tool as a reamer to prepare the puncture hole for the plug. A small hole in the tread or sidewall is a very common cause of air loss from a tubeless MTB tire. I installed a car tyre patch over the existing patch these ones are much much thicker it still bulges a bit but has been holding air tubeless ever since thats about 4 or 5 rides now.
Next investigate the valve from the other end which means taking the tire off the rim.
But they arent exactly on the cheaper side. These work miracles in seating a tire but there is a drawback. If your rims are not pre-taped you will need to install tubeless-specific rim tape as otherwise the rim bed wont be airtight. So when you get a maintenance issue you want to resolve it rather than buying a new tire.
