      Oh man, coming from the author of the best one, that is the nicest compliment I could have ever received! Yours is how I originally found your channel, we've come full circle!

    What tire pressures do you run? I had my front tire lose air and it appears my innertube got a spoke puncture. I wasn't even aware till I was strapping the bike down. I thought I could inspect it to determine the cause, but some of the tape moved and got boogered up during break down. My technique for tire removal and installs isn't that gentle yet. I am going to try slime this time and about 100psi on the innertube vs 120psi. I wish KTM made a plastic rim strip that we could use instead of tape.
    Unmounting my tires last night, I realized once part of the bead is over the outside of the rim, you can stand on the opposite side and reach under that section to lift/bend the tire up towards you, and it will give the bead some slack to continue lifting over the rim without having to continue spooning all the way around. I may try to see if I can do it with one or two spoons next time. Fighting those spoons in can be kind of a pain. It's best to do it like you do and get three in first then pull it over.
    If you can, get affiliate links for stuff like the bead breakers so people can support your channel more.

      I inflate my inner bladder the night before the ride, usually between 105 and 110 PSI. As for tire pressure, I usually run 7 PSI front and 3 or 4 PSI rear. If I know I'm only doing double track, I'll do 8 or 9 PSI front and 6 PSI rear. I've been lucky to not get an inner bladder puncture yet, but I could see that happening if the tape moves.

    Great video. My only suggestion is to not use your wife's Tupperware bowl as a container to hold the slime. For some reason, she really did not like that.

    The slime helps preventing damage in the inner bladder?

      No, the inner bladder is protected by the red carcass that goes around it. The Slime helps with mounting the tire and extra slime in the tire (low pressure side) helps with tire punctures.

    what tire pressure gauge are you using?

      It's the Topeak Smartgauge D2, you can get it on Rocky Mountain ATVMC or Amazon
