I am with you, Ran tubeless for 2 years and saw no benefit, once I did cut a sidewall that sprayed sealant all over the rear of my bike. Net result was a lot of clean up and a new very expensive tire.

It worked!

Thank you!

Shaking and Rollin ' making sure even coverage of sealant inside and getting it into every nook and cranny is what gets it fixed. All good now.

Tim pal, I used to think this way so I understand your concerns.
It's ok.

In my case, I can honestly say it's more operators error than anything else. As I live longer, I tend to want to blame someone else less because I realize so much of it is my own doing and I am responsible. I cringe everytime someone posted a thread accusing a company or a framebuilder or another forum pal of something. Sometimes it's legitimate but sometimes it's not. I just wish we can man up and admit it when it's our fault and take responsibility for our own action.
