Stan's tire sealant in tubulars?
Does anyone run this stuff in their tubulars? does it work? is the extra rotating weight noticeable? are the team high road kits the most unsightly blemish of 2008?

Very common to use the Stans sealent in the western states due to the goatheads. And yes, it does work. The extra weight is not an issue, as you don't need to put a large amount in the tire for it to work.

Ride it like you stole it
+1 on using Stan's in tubulars, used it all of last year, no flats in 4000 miles.

Stans or the Tufo stuff works well. Never had a flat with the Tufo sealant.
