That time I caught a flat on a rail trail after dark with 5km to go so decided to just pump up loads to get me through but I was running these garbage continental tubes with a threaded valve core for some reason and when removing my pump the valve core unthreaded and the pressure blasted it into the darkness so I inflated again and zip tied my pump inside the spokes and it fucking worked. Urge to go tubeless intensifies. @bikes

@christ @bikes This is a hilarious and novel solution. I will say: I really appreciate replaceable valvecores for both tubeless applications and any pumps other than lezyne-style ones. For tubeless, they make it 1000 times easier to refill sealant and get the tube seated with an air compressor.
