How long will a mousse last?

[Deleted account 211025001]

I know it's a bit like 'how long's a piece of string' and I also know mousses aren't really meant for road use........but........in people's personal experience how long, roughly, will a mousse last with a mixture of road and trails?

3 or 4 tyres and they'll be fine on the road

..... providing it doesn't get too hot.

(If you ride at Tims pace you'll be fine .... ).

So, 2 or 3 tyres at 'normal' pace then

Cheers guys

Don't forget to put a tubeless valve in the rim. (mouses are illegal for the road..) and joking aside, it is road work that'll kill them - they really don't like heat ....

Just make sure it get's well lubed when new tyres are fitted ........borrow some of Giles's

Put a valve core in as well to fool the plod

It will also help you seat the tyre with a blast of compressed air ....

Don't try following darkhorse - he's well known as a mousse shagger!

Good idea with the tubeless valve.

Here's a mousse that got hot and them melted:

Obviously not a bike on loan to Mellors then ....
