Tubeless question
« on: February 25, 2017, 03:35:44 pm »
Hi all to those who have converted.

I think I get the idea when your pole is collapsed you connect your pole hose in the base of your pole and when you extend the pole the connection goes up the pole. Does it ever jam when collapsing pole?

Like a number on here iv been using them since they 1st came out. And never had any problems like jamming.

The only issue iv had was with the black sleeve protector protecting the female rectus. I took them off off of both my poles as I found that they became cumbersome when connecting to the male fitting.

That wouldn't stop me purchasing more univalves though.

If your considering getting one , then go for it

Mine never jammed.
Only minor problem I had was disconnection when working with a Univalve and the pole collapsed. This happened when pulling on the hose to operate the Univalve. If the black sleeve came right out of the pole it would sometimes catch on the way back in and cause disconnection. It was rare though, and I would  just reconnect, no problem. It is a good kit.
I don't use the exceed kit now though, just a JG hose connector at the base of the pole. I still occasionally get a disconnect though less often.

Hi col

No mine never comes off or gets jammed inside the pole when elevating or lowering the pole ,
if you set the pole up as instructed youl'll find the sleeeve ejector sits inside the base of pole just hidden so that when you pull to discount it pops out just enough to hold with your finger to disconnect

Hope that helps helps

You can change where the ejector sleeve sits by either shortening the pole sleeve  on shorter poles or getting an inner extension for longer poles

Same answer as Tony above.
I've found too, that the rectus fitting eventually does wear in time and can cause more disconnection problems. When you find the disconnections happening more frequently, change the rectus fitting and all will be fine again.

So you can go tubeless and use a univalve?

How does that work?

Confused  ???

Hi Caleb

It's very simple

You may want to watch a video on his site how to set up a univalve with tubeless kit it may make more sense

But simply put

The top section Pole holds univalve and is set up as the starting point of tubeless kit

Used them from day 1.
Just changed rectus and sleeve after 2 1/2 years since they came out...I think.
Used to get a new recus every 2 months before. His last for ages. Quality brand
