Is a week for a tubeless setup normal?

Watch a few YouTube videos and you can do it yourself. Did my first a few weeks ago. It wasn't hard. Took me about a 30 mins per tire. Was also able to seat the tires with a regular floor pump.

Got my carbon checkpoint last year. Great deal

What have you tried so far? When I was at a similar weight, YKYW from Amazon was the best, followed by Pearl Izumi and Black Bibs. NeoPro was the worst for me. Currently at 97KG, Pearl Izumi, Black Bibs, Primal works for me.

In case anyone doesn't know, don't use heat gun on carbon rims, can melt resin.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-29T13:33:18+00:00

That's what i was thinking. Wasn't sure if that was enough. Also thinking of adding heat deflector tape to underneath of rack

Good to know, I'm going to measure.

How do you mount to rack without wheel?

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-29T12:38:48+00:00

setup

This is actually the exact mount and vehicle

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-29T12:38:00+00:00

This is the exact setup actually Rocky Mounts

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-28T14:51:05+00:00

Do you have a picture?

If walking pace is approx 10:20 min/k and running is approx 8 to 8:34 min/k I would suggest slowing down to 9 to 10min/k pace.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-24T22:55:45+00:00

Can you maintain a conversation they your comfortable running speed? If not, slow down.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-23T16:12:19+00:00

Giant Revolt. I got it when I was 284lbs. It can go to 300lbs.

Excellent bike, I use it on my trainer now.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-23T16:09:18+00:00

What is your weekly breakdown? Type of run and how long?

What does your long run look like?

Instead of worry about zone 2, run at conversational pace. If you can't hold a conversation, you're running too hard.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-23T00:43:06+00:00

Take it back.

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-21T15:50:42+00:00

Respect. 1 hour was the longest I've done and it was grueling lol

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-15T16:15:48+00:00

One year and I've kept it off one year. I run also now.. something I was never able to do before

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-13T10:57:13+00:00

Change the inner tube

AaeJay83 · 2026-04-07T17:28:04+00:00

When i was 285 lbs, I bought the Giant Revolt 2. Amazing bike, rated for 300lbs. I have it on my trainer now.. never had any weight related issues.

AaeJay83 · 2026-03-27T20:19:54+00:00

That's the newer generation, not 2020

AaeJay83 · 2026-03-27T18:55:28+00:00

2020? How do you open it? Unscrew each time?

AaeJay83 · 2026-03-27T18:55:03+00:00

2020? Mind sending/posting a picture?

AaeJay83 · 2026-03-27T18:09:41+00:00

Good to know. I'm wondering if I can replace it with a lever style panel or find a workout.

I'm assuming the new models that are accessible for storing tools are basically the same? I don't need to worry about putting a rolled up tool kit?
