I cringe when I think of all the times I\u2019ve spent at gas station air compressors, struggling to seat a tire for a race 2 hours later. This was when rims weren\u2019t designed to be tubeless. Rims relied on the tube to press the tire bead securely into place on the rim.<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"\/\/www.notubes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stan\u2019s Notubes<\/a> wheels I can swap tires, start-to-finish, on a complete set of rims in about 10 minutes, with one hand while sipping a sweetened iced tea.

The sound of accomplishment and satisfaction. It\u2019s inflate-tires-with-a-5-year-old-hand-pump-that-your-not-sure-still-works easy. This is because Stan\u2019s rims were designed to be tubeless; not only making them easier to set up but increasing performance in every metric, so you can get the most out the tire and the wheel.<\/p>\n<p>So what has the infamous Stan done that nobody else could?
