Speaking of tubeless, I am going to replace the valve on the wheelbarrow wheel, but will need to find a way to re-seat the bead. No way I can do this with my bike pump or even with a C02.
I see some pretty cool YouTube videos that involve lighter fluid and a match. Anyone ever try this??

The silver lining was that the timing wasn't too bad. The low pressure light came on, but I ignored it because it has a history of false positives. A few minutes down the road, the car started to noticeably drift to one side, but we were less than a mile to our destination - the bike shop. The wife needed a helmet and I needed some new tubeless valves, so she did a little shopping while I swapped the wheel in the parking lot.

Good for you. My weight is a CV gain of 18# but my overnight HR avg. is ~38-39 again, probably from all of the riding.

Tubeless on lawn equipment = problem waiting to happen.

I don't know if you people have Jimmy Dean sausage in your area but we've been getting commercials for 6 months or so narrated by Jimmy Dean who died 10 years ago. Always freaks me out when I hear dead celebrities hawking goods on TV.

I was surprised at how well it worked. There's a little ridge, at the lift points on the undercarriage, and a corresponding valley on the jack. Lifted very easily and securely, and felt pretty solid (but I was smart enough to break the bolts free before jacking).

The hardest part about those is lining up the lug holes on the rim and hub. Studs do serve a purpose.
