Greater than one weekMy first attempt didnt work as I did not have the tube from the sealant cover the stem. The second time, I was able to firmly secure the sealant tube over the stem and squeeze the sealant into the bike tube. I road the bike twice since the repair and can say it sealed the leak quite well. I no longer worry about minor leaks when riding.

> 3 dayI switched from Stans to Orange Seal last season and I have been super happy with the change. Stans was making my tires really sticky on the inside, the sidewalls were sticking together really bad making it tough to add sealant (I normally pop a section of the bead off rather then inserting through the valve). I couldnt be happier with the Orange Seal. I pulled 5 goatheads out of my tire the other day. When I pulled the goatheads a little air escaped, I put my finger over the hole for a second and let it do its magic. Still running those tires, no leakage. You can see some wet spots where it seals, but honestly I dont know what we did before tubeless. With how many goatheads and cactus spines I hit in a season, I would be constantly changing tubes.

> 3 dayTubeless is a game-changer and Endurance Orange Seal sealant is an easy, dependable choice. Top off or check every three-ish months and you’re good to go! I’ve been running on my 38c all-road bike and haven’t needed to use a dynaplug or spare tube in over 18 months of riding.

> 3 dayYou will not find a better tire sealant. Orange Seal endurance lives up to its name. I live in Colorado and Goat Heads and massive constant construction mean flat tires every week unless you use Orange Seal Endurance in your tubeless tires.

> 3 dayLets be honest here, the average cyclist is often lured into believing claimed benefits of a product without ever witnessing any valid tests to back the claims up. Youll hear all kinds of anecdotal claims of how great tubeless tires are, but you rarely hear about the many drawbacks - and the fact that you probably are a lot better off just sticking with good old tire tubes. Most common tubeless benefits cited (parroted): * Run at low pressures without going flat This is primarily something that people who ride off-road claim as a benefit, that by going tubeless you can drop the tire pressure lower than you could with a tube to get more grip on loose/uneven surfaces...whereas if you were using tubes youd be dealing with pinch flats once dropping below a certain threshold. False - properly installed tubes will not pinch flat even at lower pressures, and tubeless tires suffer from burping where the bead breaks momentarily allowing a lot of air to escape. The benefits of super low PSI are also dubious at best. * Never any flats This has nothing to do with tubeless and everything to do with the liquid sealant that you have to use as a stopgap to make tubeless work in the first place. Because spoked wheels are inherently not air-tight, for tubeless to work, a seal must be created. This is done by taping over the spoke holes and using the sealant to form a bead between the tire and rim. You chould just as easily add this sealant to a tubed tire if avoiding flats is your main concern. * Faster ride / better handling Totally subjective claims that really dont have any basis in reality. A good rider will do just as well with tubed tires as he would would tubeless. In many cases the sealant ends up being heavier than a decent tube, plus having liquid in your tires does not lend itself to better performance or handling. Orange Seal ----------------------------- So what is the problem with this orange stuff? First of all, it is poorly packaged. The bottle arrived partially empty because it leaked out. The seller puts them in zip-lock bags to prevent the leaky bottles from making a mess in transit, but youre still out a couple oz when it arrives. Next, this stuff is very watery and does not aid in forming a bead with tires that are not at least tubless ready. I have inferno 27 rims and tires that are tubless ready, but this stuff could not seal the minor gaps. As soon as the air hose was disconnected the tire would deflate. Third, see above, tubeless is largely a meme bandwagon that offers little or no benefits and only adds cost. - Tubes are cheap and can last for years. - Tubes hold air better and will not need to be inflated every single time you go for a ride. - Tubes, when properly installed, will not pinch flat. - Tubes can also be filled with a small amount of sealant to provide anti-flat protection, if that is a concern for you. - Tubes do not suffer from burping. - Tubes do not require an air compressor or charge pump to install. - Even if you go tubeless, if something causes your tire to go flat, you will need a tube to ride home. The cycling industry preys upon fools by trying to make bicycling depend upon expensive consumables that need frequent maintenance. Just stop.

> 3 dayThis is an excellent bike tire sealant! However, this sealant, bought in a bike store, would come with the applicator tube and this Amazon purchase did not. Perhaps should be called a refill and clearly state that it does NOT come with the applicator.

> 3 daySeals tires well, no Stanimals. Does dry out (endurance lasts longer than original) so I add a few ml every 4-6 weeks. Including a dipstick would be nice Orange Seal.

> 3 dayDescription says syringe comes with bottle of sealant, it does not. I contacted seller and nothing came of it. Be aware when purchasing.

Greater than one weekLove the product because it is eco-friendly and has saved me from quite a few flats in my tubeless tires. Unfortunately, the cap shattered in transit (probably due to the lack of cushioning). It leaked out all over the inside of the box and on a textbook book that was ordered. I’m still not sure why this was packaged together since there were other books in this same order. I specifically ordered this product because the picture online is a picture of the shop bottle, meaning that it comes in the white bottle with a safety cap. The product that came to me was the retail version. Only buy the white shop bottle if you can!
