Can you get this for MTB's?

Am bored of punctures. Came accross this on Chainreactioncycles and wondered whether there was an mtb version around and whether it would be any good? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=7970

i belive Slime do one but i'm not sure who sell it.

You could always go UST?
Ben03

What sort of price range do you reckon? Haven't really looked into it much before.

well there are two options.

1. Get completely new wheels (which would be costly and i assume you don't want to do that)
2. Get one of those conversion kits which i think are around £15ish and some UST tyres.

Option 2 i think it is Laughing

How much do you reckon for a good set of those tyres?

that weldtite anti-puncture thing is rim-tape that is made of strong but light plastic to help prevent pinch flats. It dousnt itself stop punctures, just helps smooth out the rim for your inner-tube. Theirs loadsa similar stuff for mtb's, i got some made by velox when i was trying to get an air-tight seal with stans no-tubes...

Ben In Wildside they have some stuff cant think what its called but a good buddy of mine uses it is £25 per  wheel and its like some rim tape with a value and some goo and he says that in 6 mounths of useing lighweight tyres he has never had a flat. You can use it with normal rims and tyres so long as the tyres are decent. If you intrested I will get the name of it for you its like ust with but useing the tyres and rim you already have even if there not ust.
