    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

3M sealing tape on spoked wheels

Old Gixxer wheels weigh a ton. I used SV wheels, the second time 'round. Much lighter.

You can seal the spokes so it will hold air, but spoked rims were never made to run tubeless. There is a difference between a tubed and a tubeless rim... and tire.
You can always run a tube in a tubeless, but you can't always run a tubed tire/rim tubeless.
 
a pound per wheel is alot of mass. Im pretty sure high price forged whells for my bike only drop two pounds per wheel and cost a load of coin.
