in fact , you're not saving 600g if you go tubeless you just save 200g and it doesn't matter if the bike if stationary or not. Inertia is calculated in kg/m² and it is not about weight but about how much a rotanional mass resists to a linear acceleration. so it may feel like you're having a much lighter bike but in fact it just because if your wheel is lighter you can accelerate easier and also brake easier because there is less inertia but the pay off is that your wheel will tend to not conserve its speed quit as much in bumpy terrain because it's lighter and has less inertia.

Gauthier Vuitton you are right in sense the more mass at a distance of r or radius increases inertia so the more mass you have on the rim the higher the inertia is. Also rotational energy takes away from linear energy so the more mass on the rim the slower the bike will go.

I run tubeless without sealant. I carry a tube for puncture. Ive found that the sealant will seal the hole but only as a temporary measure. The hole WILL let a tiny amount of air out over time resulting in slow punctures. Its a nice idea as a get you home but, you will at some point have to drain all that sticky shit out clean all the sticky shit out in order to make a PROPER REPAIR WITH A PATCH!!

I rode tubes for decades with no punctures, except for staples and nails on city rides. My new bike came tubeless. They leak. Fast or slowly, they leak. Press people hard enough and you'll eventually get the truth - they go from saying, "It never leaks" to "well, I only have to pump it up every week or 2". Got tired of this crap, poured the sealant out and stuck tubes back in. Two years later, no flats, and I pump them up once at the beginning of the season. BTW, my beater bike has schrader valves and they hold air perfectly. Don't be pressured by trends. If you'd rather be riding than dealing with tubeless, then don't be afraid to make the switch.

I guess the majority of my bike riding was on the streets but as long as I had a high PSI tire the only chance I ever got snake bite or pinch the tubes if I really curb the tire bad. Which basically never happens if you're running a high pressure tire setup. I guess mountain bikers like a lower PSI so that they have more grip and more cushion but it seems like a double-edged sword especially when they have such nice suspension options... why not have high tire pressure and cushy suspension?

I've been mountain biking since 1981, and riden over 200k miles. always on tube's, because you can put sealant in the tube and tape if you want. I haven't had a flat in years, riding all of the hardcore trail's here in Colorado. I have heard from everyone the benefits of tubeless and yes a little lighter. but if you cut the tire, or damage it. then it won't hold the bead and you have to install a tube to get back home, or walk. I just put a patch on the inside of the tire and fix the tube. all of the tubeless guys I Ride with carry tubes in their backpack. I just have to carry a patch kit, and that weighs about 2 oz. every ride, someone's fixing a tubeless setup. less drag and easier to get going from tubeless, true, but it's not that big a difference. I hardly know anyone who can keep up with me, especially on climbs. some guys will do anything to lose weight off of the bike, but I like a heavier bike, then when I Ride the light bike I'm even faster. I haven't had a flat in at least 9 years. I raced in norba at the semi pro level and am known all over Colorado. I don't understand tubeless. I like riding, not fixing

It was necessary to forget about it, so tubeless hype video can have 5 reasons. 5 is better than 4 ;-p Two layers of Tesa 4289 19mm tape weight is 10g, so tubeless is still lighter, but i'm not a fan of it after trying the only sealant that makes sense for me-Slimepro. Green one is utter garbage but advertised as lasting 2 years(which made it sensible option). Also according to one review article, new formula is white-ish like the rest, doesn't last 2years anymore(gues why) BUT I bought a bottle that had "New formula" on it and inside green slime. So buyer beware, something's fishy going on. After that pleasant "money down the drain" experience I went back to good old tubes. Thumbs up, so buyers "can" beware :-)

A mass in linear motion has the kinetic energy: E_lin = 1/2*m*v^2 (where v is the linear velocity) A wheel moves in what we call "general motion", IE combined linear and rotational motion. Therefore it has both the linear energy and the rotational energy: E_rot = 1/2*I_pol*omega^2. The polar moment of inertia is I_pol = m*r^2 (omega is the angular velocity, omega = v/r ) Put this into the formula for rotational energy: E_rot = 1/2*m*r^2*(v/r)^2=1/2*m*v^2 Adding the two, we see that we get double the kinetic energy. This means that we have to put in double the effort to accelerate a wheel comparing to something that only moves in a linear fashion, such as the frame. The wheel maintains the rotational energy, and it doesn't make a difference going at a constant speed or even uphill. However, a heavier wheel will also increase the gyroscopic effect making it less nimble. On the contrary, having glue slushing around in the tyres drains some energy aswell.

Well I guess you wrote it a lot nicer than me. :[ (btw. it is correct if someone needed a second opinion) **just an minor addition for anyone who might try to apply these equations on something different: 1.) I_pol = m*r^2 is the Inertia of a ideal ring, and no other shape 2.) These equations are to be perfomed as vector calculations, only in simple movements can they be writen as standart multiplications.

It's also important that you're dealing with *unsprung* mass here (mass which is not isolated from the terrain by the suspension). The lighter unsprung assembly is easier for the suspension to control. For example, the spring can more rapidly accelerate the wheel toward the ground after a bump which increases the amount of time the tire is in contact with the ground.

I had Slime tubes in the past and it was unable to fix a puncture when happen. Only slime going out of the tube. So I get back to std tubes. Now, I think to try tubeless, but hearing people struggling with sealant, I am little afraid to switch. Also adding sealant regularly increase weight, so at the end, it is the same weight as a tube... A tube is so easy to change in the middle of nowhere as long as you have a spare patch/tube and a pump. I'm doing 2/3 road 1/3 trail everyday, so I'm bot sure rolling at 20 PSI will be a good thing on road.

There are likely more unseen thorns lurking in the tyres. I do not miss mending punctures.

Thing is, some users tape rims twice. And then (independent from the former), the sealant doesn't vanish in 3-4 months (when it should be swapped for fresh one), some of it sticks to the rim, edge of tape, or tyre as solid residue. This adds to the weight of your wheelset in the long run.

Still, the whole tubeless deal has me curious, so I'll likely give it a go, if only to see if it works for me.

Killen Tire applied for a patent in 1928 and was granted GB patent 329955 in the UK in 1930. The Wingfoot Corporation, a subsidiary of Goodyear Tire were granted a patent in South Africa in 1944. Due to technical problems, most of these designs only saw limited production or were abandoned. - Not that hard to find out lol.

I am new to this biking thing so watching these videos with keen interest. Personally from experience racing cars the less sprung weight in the wheel rim would not be noticeable when pedalling due to the speeds obtained. The real benefit would be in the suspension. Less sprung weight allows the wheel to react faster to the bumps without having too soft settings in the suspension. This will give a lot more grip over fast bumpy terrain. In this instance 100g is a monumental amount. Please let me know if this is different on a bike. Love your videos.

You can use tire liners like Mr. Tuffy on tube tires. These work well at flat prevention. I have not had a flat on my mountain bike for years using these and they have been very effective on my road bike as well. Draw back : more rotational mass. Plus side : maintenance free, unlike tire sealant. I used Slime when it first came out and with about 3 weeks I had rocks rolling around inside my tire - dried slime. My feeling is for recreational mountain biking it might be worth it but for recreational road riding I will stick with tubes.

Your riding style, weight, type of track, tyre/rim combination can all play their part, especially with tyre pressures. As for the expense, I've always used electrical insulation tape instead of proper rim tape and never had a leak, and replaced the fluid every 6 months, again, no issues or punctures.

I’ve been a tubeless sceptic for years. I then got a bike which was already set up with the tyres wheels and tape to convert to tubeless (it even came with valves) so I decided to give it a go. The rotational weight saving was noticeable and the suppleness over rocky ground was awesome. The ability to jam up a big hole with a plug in seconds was a bonus too. 3 years on however, I have a new bike - it has tubes but the tyres and rims are tubeless ready aaand… I’m sticking with tubes for now. Sure you spend less time repairing inner tubes when tubeless but you instead spend hours of your life picking off dry sealant from your tyre beads, cleaning out stanimals, replacing the sealant and wrestling your tyre back onto the rim, you have to pump your tyre up before each ride, and you hold all your friends back on rides pumping your slowly deflating tyre back up because your tyre bead has split slightly and won’t seal with the rim, until you give up and fit a slimy inner tube because your tubeless system has failed. I may go back to tubeless, but the differences I felt was on a hardtail - I’m now on a 160mm travel full sus… I can’t imagine those minor gains will be as noticeable as the huge reduction of faff I will encounter from riding tubes again.

I am a scientist. It takes F = m * a to accelerate the mass of the wheel. It takes M = I * w_dot to make the wheel rotate. As you showed I = m * r^2, also M = F * r and w_dot = a / r. This gives F * r = m * r^2 * a / r which can be simplified to F = m * a, showing that at worst there is another force of equal size, i.e., at worst the mass of the wheel feels as twice the mass of the non rotational mass. This is only during acceleration though, it has no effect on climbing or rolling resistance.

Climbing can be treated as a constant acceleration, can't it? You're constantly working against gravity resp. the downhill slope force, which accelerates your bike in the opposite direction and wants to pull you back to the foot of the mountain. The last calculation I've seen regarding wheel weight has put it at around 1.8 compared to non rotational mass though. No idea where the 3x in this video comes from.
@glebivanovsky7886
7 жыл бұрын
You normally climb at a constant speed. Constant speed means zero acceleration by definition. Gravity causes acceleration when you ride downhill. :) This number depends on where you save weight along the radius of the wheel. As shown in the video, I = m * r^2, where r is maximum at the circumference of the wheel and r = 0 on the axle. (And m is a point mass at distance r from the axle, not the weight of the whole wheel, actually.) So, even hub rotates, lighter hub will not decrease rotational mass a lot. But lighter tires and rims will.
@sp00n
7 жыл бұрын
But you aren't really travelling at a constant speed while climbing, are you? Unless you have perfect pedalling efficiency with machine-like precision, you're constantly decelerating due to the downhill slope force, and accelerating again because of your pedal strokes. However it just occurred to me, the deceleration process would probably be at a slower rate for heavier wheels due to inertia, so this might cancel at least some of it out. Would be interesting to see some actual calculation for this.

There are all sorts of reasons for going tubeless but most of the comments have been about the weight saving , ( and a fair bit about the weight of the rim tape) so I thought I would just add this to the pot for a stir . The 26 x 2.1 Kenda slant 6s I have come as tube only 120 dpi DTC and 120 dpi DTC + SCT. The SCT were slightly more than 100 gm heavier than the tube only tyre as the side walls were thicker and stiffer. The tube only tyres were not available in Aust and the SCT was what the bike shop ordered in for me. You can feel the 100 gm and the stiffer sidewalls for sure on the front. I was going to convert it to tubeless but found the tube only ones in the UK for half price and stuck with tubes. Only had 2 pinch flats in the last 6 years when I was too lazy to check the pressures before the ride. (we have pretty smooth tracks before I accused of not riding enough)

I recently converted my bike to tubeless and obviously it’s good I will get less flats, but the thing that’s blown my mind is the difference in the way the bike feels. It’s so much easier to ride uphill for whatever reason, I’m pissing up hills I that have always gassed me. Also, my bunny hops are better and it feels way smoother and more planted on downhill trails. I will never go back to tubes that is for sure!

I've been mountain biking for 26 years, and after owning my first tubeless ready bike for 7 months, I finally set up my tubeless wheels. I like the ride, but what a pain in the ass setting them up. Also, being a motorcyclist as well, I look at the tubeless wheels on the BMW adventure bikes and predict that bike wheels will soon go through a massive design change. Beemer wheels have a separate inboard flange where the spokes attach, leaving a rim cavity with no spoke holes and no need for sealant! The present method of sealing tubeless wheels is truly "reinventing the wheel"!

I run sealant in my tubes and I carry a spare tube with me (two on long group rides) and a patch kit. I've had two flats, both instances that would've flattened a sealant filled tubeless (big holes). Once, large thorn, patched the tube, was on the road in less than 10 minutes. Other time a large nail left two big holes in the tread and sidewall. Tubeless would've left me stranded (tire is really too big to practically carry a spare, I think). I changed the tube, lining the holes with a piece cut off of the old innertube, limped home without incident. I'll keep my tubes, thank you.

The answer to the question at 2:51 - yes you are correct, although it’s a bit more accurate to account for the thickness of the rim using the following equation: I = (1/2)*M*(r_outer^2 - r_inner^2) Where M is the mass, r_outer and r_inner are the inner and outer radii of the rim from the center of the hub, and I is the inertia. That said, I = MR^2 is going to give you a very close answer to the exact version.

A liquid sealing anyone can use also in the tube and so it seals not worse, but better than tubeless as with a tube one has also additional resistance towards the puncture compared to tubeless. This advantage of the tube you can even extend more by adding a shield between the tyre and the tube, which you cannot use in tubeless and again you can use a sealing liquide inside the tube and be not less, but more protected against puncture in any variant with tube with or without shield

Hi Mister, didn't read all 563 comments so far, so maybe its already said... When it comes to acceleration, you need twice as much muscle grease for a certain weight added at the outer radius of your wheel, compared to the same weight added to the frame. That is, because you have to accelerate it in the direction of the trail plus in the direction of the rotation. When using tubes, you should/can use lighter tires to get the right amount of damping and not an overly hard wheel. That can easily save you more than 100g. When you want a softer tire, running lower tire preasure, to get an enlarged contact patch to your dirt, you have to take a wider tire to not pinch flat it. I think, running tubeless to be able to ride on your rims is no option. The next step is to get some carbon rims and foam inlays to ding the rims with no consequences... but don't ask for weight savings anymore. My decision is to run tubes and appropriate tires, cause I don't like the hassle with the juice, when changing treads. I am not racing, so, when sharp rocks are in sight, I don´t have to go full throttle anyway... If you like the extra puncture protection, shredding raspberry bushes, go tubeless.

So by upgrade is he considering less rotational inertia is an advantage in starting, stopping, however also less roll inertia which I would think is beneficial. However I mainly disagree with his word use of weight.

5 Reasons to keep the tube: 1. They get sealant too 2. The thickness of the inner tube is added to the tire making it harder to puncture and the holes smaller 3. High pressure in the tube closes holes faster and you still have pressure to keep riding 4. The sealant lasts longer as it is more protected and you dont need to waste it to change a tire or a rim 5. Easier and cheaper to replace than a tire

TL;DR: you need 2x the energie to speed up a rotational mass (in form of a ring, and constant non slipping contact) Inertia is dependent on the shape of the object. For an ideal ring it is I = m*r^2. However what you are interestet is the kinetik energie (T) which is composed of translation and rotation. therefor: T = 1/2*m*v^2 + 1/2*w*L (w = v*r :rotational speed, L= I*w :moment of Inertia) .--> T=m*v^2

Tubeless absolute waste of time, effort and money in my experience. I’ve had rocks put holes in tyre side walls that it obviously can’t seal, then you have a right mess on your hands putting a tube in. Also the amount of times I come back to bike in garage and the tyres have gone flat after a week of being stood, valves that won’t seal into rims, valves that the inner comes out with the cap because the sealant has glued them together is always a good one on a ride when you want to let a bit of air out not the whole lot. If someone offered you two options a messy option with a tyre and bead that’s hard to break and make and impossible to fix out and about without a tube and you have to keep replacing the sealant (bloody joke)or a tyre with a tube that you fix with a glue less patch or replace tube for a few quid and no mess, I know which option I’ve gone back too and others I ride with have as well, just companies trying to make more dosh.

If you inflate your tyres to the correct pressure and ride the correct terrain for the type of bike and don't ride a like a complete D you don't get pinch flats either. Also at 2KG, 100g is literally nothing and will make no difference at all. From personal experience a good set of tyres with a quality tube like the maxxis lightweight xc tube will very rarely puncture (i use maxxis crossmark tyres and those maxxis tubes). I would have to ride over a nail or break a glass bottle with the inflated tyre to puncture it. Also on the puncture test you are checking for a puncture on the complete opposite side of the wheel. You need to have rotated it an extra 180. I'm starting to think this video and you guys are full of shit.

If you're talking about rotating inertia, then a slightly smaller wheel is way better for acceleration as the radius term is squared, and the mass term isn't. BUT for keeping speed over a rooty section to avoid Decceleration then a bigger diameter/heavier tyre is better, again the radius term is squared. The mass term makes little difference. What is important is UNSPRUNG MASS which no one talks about. This where tubeless and lighter is better. Lower intertial reluctance will make the suspension of the bike work a lot better and feel more supple, aiding traction and grip under accel and decel respectively. Cheers

The emergancy repair kit is a rubberized string and a insertion tool.
