I’m no racer, so if I choose to run the tires with tubes…it won’t be the end of the world.
I may or may not be bad technique, or is may be the infuriating variability of TL. That, imo, is the main issue with TL. Sometimes its fine, sometimes its an anger management test. The forums are littered with stories like yours and its just too easy just writing it all off as "bad technique". Its not. - Surely it shouldnt take hours to seat and seal the tyre, and surely it shouldn't unseat as soon as it looses pressure (wtf?!). That's a recipe for a road side disaster, if you didnt have the foresight to bring a tube and adequate tools to get the tyre off and on again.
