    I run the crossmax UST rims with the 2.35 Mavic UST ingniter tires. I replace my Stans every 4 months. It has been good since 2005. Good luck see you out there. Figure snow at the top.

    Bullshit!!! I've been using Stans since it came out.You'll get those clumps whether you use co2,an air compressor or an air pump.They're latex beads that didn't fill a puncture,then balled up when the liquid started to dry.I use co2 to mount my tires and more than once,I mounted them backwards.#-oWhen I took off the tire no such ball of latex was in there.This has happened more then once(see what happens when you're yakkin' with a wife/friend and don't pay attention).This discussion came up a few years ago on here.One poster took photos of himself mounting a tire,filling it with Stans,using a co2 to inflate.After a while he deflated the tire and opened it up.Surprise!No ball of latex.Old wifes tales and the internet go hand in hand.- LLoyd :wave:
