Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

I'm not a gear junkie or weight weenie, but the UST tires I recently bought for a small fortune felt like tank treads on my UST rims. They were way too heavy and slow!
So a friend suggested Stan's and viola - obviously easier pedaling, and I haven't had any flats. I have to add about 10 psi over the course of a week. My tires (Kenda Karma 2.0) sealed up great on UST rims. No more tubes on my mtb!

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

Installed on front and rear, one new and one old tire, it was a lot easier to install with a new tire, Kenda Nevegal 2.5. The old tire was a little harder to sit the bead, because of the steel bead, Prowler mx 2.5. Just follow the directions and it is a pretty fast install. The only thing I did that works better than using a presta valve adapter was just using the air hose alone with no attachment. It forces air in much faster. Also make sure to tighten the valve down with pliers, not too tight, but enough.

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

A cinch to use on my Crossmax UST rims and Kenda Karma 2.0 tires (non-UST).
Makes for a lightweight combination that is good for all but snow and super-slick mud.
Set up was easy. I have to add about 10psi over the course of a week - not a big deal in my book.

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

I Recently moved to AZ and experienced pinch flats almost every ride and was forced to run pressure around 55-60psi; this for a guy who weighs 165 lbs. A rider on the trial recommended I give Stan's a try and I am ecstatic with the results. A smooth ride due to lower PSI and NO FLATS. I've found and removed all kinds of cactus spines in my tires and they have yet to lose pressure. I followed the directions very closely and had no problems. It was a little challenging to get the sealant to seal one of the tires, but once it was sealed, it was sealed. I used Mavic 717 rims and WTB Velociraptor tires and it's been a dream come true. This system works exactly as advertised and is worth every cent.

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

So far so good. Used Stans No Tubes kit for the first time two days before a scheduled race and had zero issues. You can do the change over yourself (you will need an air compressor). If you don't have one or can't borrow one, go to the gas station (will need an presta adapter) to start it off, once the bead takes, you can finish with a floor pump. I went a full year of racing on tubes without any flats (luck on my side), but wanted to go with lower psi....glad I made the change!

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

Don't spend money on crap to make your bike lightweight until AFTER you've switched to tubeless.

Installation was much easier than I thought it would be: I used a compressor to seat the beads and it was a snap.

The biggest thing I noticed though was how much better the traction was climbing over off-camber rocks, slick roots and loose gravel.

Best $60 you can spend on your bike.

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

Lives up to it's claims, I first installed this on some older Kenda Slant Six tires with Mavic 719 rims, despite following the instructions to the letter, the tire didn't hold air the first night. But after some more shaking and reseating the bead, the tires sealed up perfectly, and even with lower air pressure, the tires did not feel slow and draggy, gave a much plusher ride, and confidence- inspiring cornering.

I did manage to get a flat a week after converting, with a large metal shard that cut through almost a quarter inch of tire casing. It was a matter of bad luck, as I have never gotten such a flat with tubes. Due to it being nearly impossible resetting the bead with a hand pump, I decided to throw a tube back in with a dollar bill over the gash to complete the ride, instead of attempting to patch the tire. The process was extremely easy, simply taking out the rim strip and putting a tube in as normal.

I ended up throwing away the tires after that ride, instead of patching it, as they were pretty worn already. I remounted the tubeless with Kenda's Small Block Eight, 2.35 regular front, and 2.1 UST rear. I did find the UST to be much easier in inflating and sealing with this system, but it comes at a cost in weight. Running a lower PSI also did not seem to affect the speed the Small Blocks were designed for.

If I had to find one flaw with this system, it would be that I wish they would have included the sealant injector with this kit, instead of selling it separately. It is not a major annoyance at all however, since the system works as advertised in every way, and pouring a scoop into the tire isn't any extra work.

Review of the Stans No Tubes Standard/UST Tubeless Kit:

Had to research on Stan's website, and still wasn't sure if it was going to work for 29'r wheels or just 26". I've had the setup for a few weeks now, and it is working perfectly on my 29'r wheels. For those that aren't sure, I promise it works. The only trouble was the rubber rim strip with the valve stem fits pretty tight right at the valve stem and I was afraid I wasn't going to seal the bead. Make sure you use an air compressor or CO2 cartridges to set the bead initially. After the bead is set, use your standard floor pump to adjust pressure.
