Orange Seal Tubeless Tire Sealant


SO GOOD
Orange Seal’s thick latex solution contains particles of varying sizes, which really makes a difference.

Even after wiggling our 6mm screwdriver back and forth, the tyre was sealed after just two wheel revolutions and held 40psi without leaking. When we put a pick straight through both sidewalls, the holes were sealed after a little encouragement. The provided tube allows easy topping up too.

NO GOOD
It’s pricey and only works at its best for a claimed 30 to 45 days in the tyre, so it’s best kept for the race season or regular tyre swappers.

Price 19$ for 227ml (=85$ for 1l)

Canyon Spectral AL 6.0

Round two, and the 6.0 leaps out of the blocks. From the moment we're off the smaller wheeled Spectral wants to go flat out. Standing on the pedals on the small steep climbs is slightly more reactive, surging the Spectral forward that little more eagerly. We need more body language to get the wheels over the roots, but again the 2.4in Mountain King's tread impresses.
