Title: Tubeless extreme pole v3
Post by: tlwcs on May 17, 2016, 07:04:12 pm

Anyone converted the latest v3 to tubeless using exceeds kit?
The bung Stephen sent out drops through the section. With tape on it it stays in place until I couple the female to it, then it just pushes it down the pole. The flange on the top is not wide enough to stop this.
Any ideas, have left Steve a message

I had exactly the same problem I phoned Steve and he sent out other bungs  which did the same thing , I ended up going to a plumbers merchant and got some speed fit inserts that sorted the problem out

Must admit the bugs I received only just fitted my SLX18 and 25. They were only a tiny fraction away from going straight up the inside of the pole.

Thank you. I have a John guest fitting that will need less tape and the flange is as wide as the section, should will not drop through. The hole of the fitting is too wide and the male drops through.
Time to glue a washer on it.
The joys of dear kit you then have to diy.

Thank you. If it's not too late there was no ring to holder the spacer in the pack.
No drama, I can put some tape on it
