2014 DLX Wheels on 2017 EX
#18
(04-03-2020, 01:50 PM)Alain Lee_imp Wrote: Since early summer of 2019, I converted my 17 EX from Tube type to Tubeless and rode it to the Eastern Rally in WV. So far touch wood there is no issue.
See chart below on pressure drop:

All reading are in Psi
Month. Date. Fr. Rr
Sept. 10th. 33 40
Sept. 15th. 33 40
Sept. 29th. 32 39
Oct. 13th. 30 37
Oct. 16th. 28 37
April. 3rd. 24 34

During winter storage between Oct 16th and April 3rd, there was a loss of 4 Psi which I consider kind of acceptable since 1 Psi per month is considered normal.

When I replaced the worn out tires I took a leap of faith and went for the conversion. It seemed to work fine.

Good information and good idea to check and record the pressure as you did. I've been surprised that my tubes don't seem to lose much over the cold months, maybe only 2psi...but then OR winters where I live don't get that cold, probably 35f night time average, and rarely below 30f. I just put new tires / tubes on. Thought about converting, but just didn't feel like doing it quite yet.

I'd be interested to see if there's any changes over 4-5 years.
