I also had 3 separate races that I flatted in, and that can be pretty frustrating too.
I ride in some sketchy areas in L.A, Long Beach, Santa Ana, I just want a little piece of mind that the tubeless will take care of 70% of the flats. I still plan on carrying a tube and C02, just in case. ;-)
Just curious, were you using the Mavic sealeant? or another brand?
thanks ;-)
I used the orange stuff....run them low psi for nicer ride
