Hi All, I have searched some previous posts on this subject, but wanted the latest info on the best way forward. I have a 2020 TW200 that I bought new.
I live in remote Africa and ride through very difficult terrain with absolutely no water available in the dry season. The thought of getting a puncture 20+km from my basecamp in tough terrain and no footpaths really worries me. I normally only carry enough water for 2 days, around 7 litres.
I have never changed a wheel and fixed a puncture on any vehicle before, (I carry 2 spares on my 4x4), and am pinning my hopes on fitting tubeless wheels and tyres with a self-sealing compound inside the tyres to get me back to camp.
Has anyone had any experience of this, and what would members recommend?
Happy 2021, Steve
