    I’ve run Flatout in mine and it works great, but from what I’ve heard, Slime sucks.

      I forgot the brand I used, but it was one of the “best” and most recommended at the time (only a few years back). It was purple.

      On my current e-scooter, it runs tubeless by default, but has a gel liner, rather than liquid, so it self-heals without maintenance or mess. That would be awesome to have in a bike tire.

        These days Flatout is pretty much the go-to for tube sealant, but if I recall, it was more tan colored?

          I remember now, it was “Armor-Dilloz”. Never tried flatout, but the whole experience just left me unimpressed. I’ve been totally fine with bike tubes. Even on bikes that are used all year round, in +30 and -20 Celsius… no issues. No need to check them. Just inflate once in a while, and I’m good. LOL

            Flatout can plug some pretty bad damage, if you look up video demos on YouTube there are people literally using drill bits on their tires and still being able to ride.
