Product Information

Full details

This guide is for cyclists looking to convert to tubeless tires or maintain their existing tubeless setup. Schwalbe Doc Blue Tubeless Tyre Sealant, produced by Stan's NoTubes, offers effective puncture protection for tubeless tires, tubes, and tubular tires. A key benefit is its ability to seal small punctures, reducing the risk of flats. However, it's important to note that it may not be effective on large cuts or bursts.

FAQs

How much sealant should I use?

For race bikes, use 30ml per tire. For other bikes, use 60ml per tire.

How long does the sealant last?

The sealant is effective for approximately 2-7 months.

Can I use this sealant in tubes?

Yes, Schwalbe Doc Blue can be used as a puncture preventative in bicycle tubes.

Is this sealant suitable for tubeless conversions?

Yes, it is specifically designed for tubeless conversions.

What happens if the sealant doesn't seal a puncture?

If the puncture is too large (cut or burst), the sealant may not work. You may need to use a tire repair kit or replace the tire.

Does the sealant dry out?

Yes, the sealant will eventually dry to a rubber film. You can renew the sealant by adding more.

Does it include any tools?

Yes, it includes a valve tool and a 60ml applicator bottle.

How do I store the sealant?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Sealant isn't sealing punctures.

Check the tire for large cuts or bursts; Doc Blue isn't effective on these. Also, ensure you have sufficient sealant in the tire and that the tire is properly inflated.

Sealant is drying out quickly.

Sealant effectiveness diminishes over time. Check the sealant level regularly (every 2-7 months) and replenish as needed. Ensure the tire is stored correctly (cool, dry place away from sunlight).

Valve is clogged.

Remove the valve core and clean it. If the sealant has dried, you might need to replace the valve core.
